Help:New Guild

Create a Guild Page
Probably the easiest method is to navigate to where you want your guild page. Typically you will want the page to be named after your guild's exact in-game name, possibly without relevant articles like "The". You can either click on a red wikilink of your guild's name on another page (assuming they've already been listed elsewhere), or type the name into the navigation bar as http://kirintor.wikia.com/wiki/Guildname. Other ways to create a new page are described in Help:New page.

You should now have a standard MediaWiki edit window that looks something like this:



Add a Guild Infobox

 * 1) Open Template:Guildbox in another tab/window.
 * 2) Select the empty template in the Usage section and copy it into the edit window.
 * 3) Fill in the two required values: faction (Horde or Alliance) and name (your exact in-game guild name).
 * 4) Delete any fields you do not wish to display/use.
 * 5) Fill information in the remaining fields - try to keep these simple (especially the guild type, so your guild entry is easily grouped)
 * 6) Use the Show preview button to check your formatting and links

The infobox will always float on the right-hand side, no matter what other sections you put into your guild's page. For a more detailed description of all of the infobox fields, see Template:Guildbox. You can use links and text formatting in the infobox, but remember that it is meant to be a readable summary of your guild, with the more detailed descriptions in the page body.

Your guild page in the edit window should now look something like this:



Add More Information

 * 1) View other guilds' pages (see Category:Guilds for a list) to get ideas.
 * 2) Start with some basic sections like these, and fill them out:

Members
Your guild page in the edit window should now look something like this:



Automatic Member List
Template:Biobox automatically categorizes characters if you use it on a character page; you can automatically list the characters who are in your guild on your guild page (instead of maintaining it manually) by adding the following code to your members section (replacing "guildname" with your guild's name): Guildname members</categorytree
