To get started, please click on a relevant link to what you want help with below.
 
If you're looking for help with Tenth Fleet, rather than help with editing the wiki itself, then try [[Frequently Asked Questions]]. Alternatively, try the [https://forums.trmn.org/viewforum.php?f=99 official TRMN Tenth Fleet forum].

== Basic editing ==
Contributing is easy. There is an excellent '''[[Help:Editing|editing guide]]''' available which contains the need-to-know info if you want to modify or create an article from scratch. A '''[[Help:Cheatsheet|cheatsheet]]''' quick summary also exists.
 
If you're in a rush or don't feel confident enough to edit an article, you can drop a comment on an article's talkpage with the '''[[Help:Leaving article feedback|two click feedback button]]'''. The wiki community keeps an eye on talk pages and so will likely be able to resolve any issue you identify. If an article has been created with the wrong title, '''[[Help:Renaming articles|it can be renamed]]''' (same as moved) by logged in users.
 
Displaying information with '''[[Help:Images|images]]''' or '''[[Help:Tables|tables]]''' can often radically improve an article. '''[[Help:Templates|Templates]]''' are also routinely used to ensure a consistent appearance. Although they appear as discreet links at the bottom of articles, '''[[Help:Categories|Categories]]''' are a simple way of quickly navigating between similar content.

== Advanced editing ==
If a statement made on an article is not easily verifiable ingame, then it is often a good idea to include a '''[[Help:References|reference]]''' to the original source. This is especially true of information gleaned from interviews and external sites.
 
The '''[[Help:Templates (advanced)|advanced template guide]]''' will point you in the direction of useful resources if you're looking to improve on the existing templates. If it isn't obvious how information appears on a page, the chances are it involves the '''[[Help:SMW|SMW]]''' data extension. When wikicode templates aren't quite sufficient, or you want to pull information from the GW2 API, '''[[Help:Widgets|Widgets]]''' can be assembled by trusted editors.
 
Sysops are usually chosen for their ability to mediate conflicts between other users. They are not chosen for their memory, which is lucky because there is a '''[[Help:Sysop guide|Sysop Guide]]'''.

== Where can I help? ==
As with most wikis, we are still missing some articles. If you find a subject that needs an article, you can add some basic information and create it (it doesn't have to be complete!).
 
Any incomplete page that you find is yours to edit and improve, but if you have a suggestion for a change that might affect a large number of pages or is of controversial nature, discuss it on the '''[[Guild Wars 2 Wiki talk:Community portal|community portal]]''' first.
 
If you want to go looking for incomplete content you could try '''[[Special:Wantedpages|the list of wanted pages]]''' (pages which have been linked to, but not created), have a swing at the '''[[:Category:Stubs|stubs]]''' (pages which have been created, but are known to be missing key sections), check out the '''[[TenthFleet:Projects|Wiki Projects]]''', or just go for a '''[[Special:Random|random page]]'''. Regardless of what you edit, we will appreciate your contribution.
