Difference between revisions of "Template:Help out"

DiabloWiki is a great resource for everyone, and is built by members of the community adding small or big contributions. Time or English skills are not constraints that should keep you from signing up to the project, as some members might have plenty of time but using English as a second language, and others have skills but only time to correct grammar!

You can help out in the wiki by either filling out Wanted Pages and Incomplete Pages (also known as "Stubs"). You can also check out the Community Portal for information on the current wiki focus.

Your Account
Your account will work on both the Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 wikis here at DiabloWiki, if you sign up on one of them. If you have an account on any other Diablo site, such as Diablo: IncGamers, you will not automatically be able to use that username; you will have to sign up for DiabloWiki separately.

Getting help
When you have signed up, this is how you get help:

• Our homegrown Help section includes almost anything you would like to know.
• The Wiki Markup page is great if it's a specific piece of "wiki code" you need.
• The FAQ answers a lot of further questions.
• The Community Portal Discussion is a good place to ask questions to be answered by the community.
• The DiabloWiki Support Forum can also be used to get help from sysops and members.
• If all else fails, or you just want to talk to someone, ask Elly or Flux, as the two of them are here to help those who are here to help!
