 +There are many ways you can help with the wiki, and all of them are greatly appreciated! If you would like to add some text and it feels too much to get a wiki account, feel free to drop into our [[https://discord.gg/bk3wUc4|wiki discord]] to paste the text and ask someone else to do it. Also, please check out the [[wiki styleguide]].
  
-To keep our wiki amazing, we try to keep a consistent style between the pages. For the nation pages, you can use the [[Ulm EA|EA Ulm]] and [[Lanka EA|Lanka]] pages as a reference. Try to keep that style and layout on the other nations. +====General Stuff====
- +
-The very first thing on each page should be a top-level heading containing the page's actual title (e.g. this page's <nowiki>====== How to Contribute ======</nowiki>). This title is used automatically at a couple places in the wiki. +
- +
-====Wiki Syntax==== +
- +
-In general, you can edit a page and see the syntax used there. If you use the preview button, you don't have to worry about messing anything up. If you'd like to, you could check out the entire syntax available at the [[wiki:syntax]] page. Feel free to edit anything on the [[:playground:playground]] page. +

-The illwiki also runs these DokuWiki extensions: +
