Tank's guide to WA
To Ethan, Dolphins and maybe kyliera
So you obviously have all the articles and categories and stuff, but there are also many other features! A while lot of stuff in fact!
Stuff like timelines and maps are possible.
Articles and categories can have custom icons, look in the article / category settings and you'll encounter an icon field. I already set the icon of the milky way category
To do this there is a website called font awesome and you'll have to go looking there. See the one I already set.
Oh also when naming articles try to not use plural names. If you are creating an article for humans, name the article "Human", without an S. The reason for this is that these articles might be linked from others. If you create a human character, you'll want it to say "Species: Human" rather than "Species: Humans"
What else. On many articles you'll find the sidebar which often contains small, dot point variables. You'll see what I mean when you make an article and fill out the settings underneath the main editing field and then view it.
What type of article template should we use? It can be ambiguous as some things can go under multiple types, e.g. does a living type of metal go under the material or species type?
For me, if it can be sentient it is a species article. AIs, giant robot spaceships and beings of pure energy can all be under this category.
