Rules

  • Mod Pages must use the {{modinfobox}} template somewhere on the page.
  • Layout and content except for the above is up to the mod
  • Mod pages are only patrolled for potential vandalism, mod owners are responsible for the content of their mod pages
  • You may create your own mod page
  • You may request an administrator to delete your own faction page using the {{delete|reason}} template.
  • You may create any number of subpages for your mod , these subpages do not require the infobox template.
  • You may use other templates used in the main wikispace on your mod pages, including the itembox template. Please specify the nocat flag on these templates to prevent your mod blocks from being entered into the main namespaces categories, failure to do this will result in the annoyance of the administrators.

Creating a mod page

Creating a mod page is not hard, simply navigate to the page you want to create by editing the URL. For example change

http://www.spaceengineerswiki.com/Main_Page

to - please note change the Your_Mod_Here to your mods name, please use underscores in place of spaces.

http://www.spaceengineerswiki.com/Faction:Your_Faction_Here

Note that the Faction: prefix is required. Then select Create page. Paste the following into the box and hit save page:

{{subst:Mod page}}

Please note the subst is very important. After saving the page, edit it and fill out any information.

Images

Because the File namespace is shared with the main wiki space all file names used on mod pages must have the following text in them: Mod_Your Mod_filename. Replace Your Mod with your actual mod's name or abbreviation. Image files created for mod pages may be moved or deleted without warning if they do not follow the correct naming scheme.

Tips

  • It is important to note that you do need a Space Engineers Wiki account to create your page; without one you will be told that you don't have permission to create pages.
  • When registering and editing pages, be sure to turn off any adblockers you have enabled in your browser, otherwise KeyCAPTCHA will not show up and you won't be able to do much.
