The two-second intro about making entries
Please take a look at the description of how the site is supposed to work on the main page: http://worldsof.com. Then make yourself a login, verify your email, and you can start editing.
You can make links by double square brackets. For example, if you had a character named "Darth Hamster" you could make an entry on his page like this:
Darth Hamster was the fiercest of all the rodents. Yet he would have been nothing without his [[light spear]] and [[magic helmet]].
The double square brackets make a link. When you save the page, they'll show up in red. If you click on them, the Wiki will put you in an editing page and let you fill them in.
What should I write about?
Entries should describe people, countries, places, races, words from spells or words in exotic languages (Wookie), etc. Story arcs are secondary to the details.
The objective is to treat a literary work as a historical document. All descriptions match what the authors conveyed in their work--unless you are the author. If so, please feel free to include your story notes and other backstory that didn't make it into your books.
