Blood of Dragons

Guide

This is a very brief guide to how to use the Profiles wiki. The wiki software is not the MediaWiki commonly used, so there are some differences. The main one is that you will need to use standard xhtml tags to format your entries. However, by looking at other entries it should be easy enough to see what tags should be used. The most common will also be listed in this guide.

Getting Started

The easiest way to add a new entry is to go to http://www.westeros.org/BoD/Profiles/ and then add the name of the person or group you are adding to the URL. For example, http://www.westeros.org/BoD/Profiles/Daeron_Targaryen/. Then you load that page, and if it has not been created yet, you will be told to click the edit link to create the page. You will of course need to have an account and be logged in to it see the edit link; the index for the Profiles wiki explains how to get that setup.

Templates

Once you have started the editing process for a new entry, paste in one of the following templates as a starting point:

<h3>Social & Political Affiliations</h3>

Syntax

These are the main tags that you may need to make links, assign categories, etc:

• Links to another page are done with [[Page Title]]. For example, [[Daeron Targaryen]] will create a link to the profile page for Daeron Targaryen.
• To link to another page and use an alternative name for the link text, use [[Page Title|Display Text]]. For example, [[Daeron Targaryen|The Young Dragon]] to create a link to Daeron Targaryen's page with the link text "The Young Dragon".

These are the main tags that you may need to use for text formatting:

• Paragraphs are done with <p>text</p>.
• Bold text is done with <strong>text</strong>.
• Italic text is done with <em>text</em>.

You can use any other valid xhtml tags as well. If you do not know if a tag is valid xhtml, please ask.
