Formatting Help

For formatting help please visit this page: MediaWiki Formatting

Additional advanced formatting can be used in templates and pages and has been enabled on the wiki: Parser Functions

For language pages use the {{DISPLAYTITLE:pagename}} tag to name your pages, replace pagename with the translated page name.

Supported languages

This wiki currently supports English, Polish (/pl), French (/fr), Russian (/ru), German(/de), Czech (/cs), and Spanish (/es). To create a new page for your language visit the corresponding page in English, edit your address bar to include the language code (for example: Visit the Example page then edit the top url to http://www.spaceengineerswiki.com/index.php?title=Example/de to create the german page. You can then create a redirect page if one does not exist that will redirect the page title to the properly located page.

For example:

If no page for Creative Mode was available in German you could create the page Creative Mode/de then redirect the page Kreativmodus to Creative Mode/de. By using the #REDIRECT [[Creative Mode/de]] syntax. For redirects to work, nothing else is allowed on the page.

Note: If the link for the translated page does not appear on the right for the English page you can force the page to refresh by adding ?action=purge to the url. For example, if you create Example/de you can go to Example and paste ?action=purge, so your url would look like: http://www.spaceengineerswiki.com/index.php?title=Example?action=purge This will reset the automatic language links for that page.

Page Deletion

If a page needs to be deleted mark the page with the {{delete|reason}} tag. This will put a notice on the page so an administrator may evaluate it and delete it if needed. Replace reason with your actual reason for page deletion.
