My first time editing the wiki: The Set

[Cartith]

I updated the page on the Set, adding information about Wax's uncle and the confrontation at the end of the book, along with the suspected goals of the Set(breeding Mistings). However, as it is my first time editing, I didn't know how to add in the citations for the info I put in. Could you tell me how to do it please?

[Joe ST]

Hey Cartith, thank you so much for adding that information. The Set article was pretty terrible XD

To add a citation, add the following text: {{ref|b|mb4|c|chapter-number}} where chapter-number is, say 5 ({{ref|b|mb4|c|5}}). If you want to reference the epilogue {{ref|b|mb4|epilogue}} should work.

Thank you again for contributing

The wiki has some guides to help with this.  I would reccomend reading the following pages.

 

http://coppermind.net/wiki/Help:Cite <-the main page for the basics

http://coppermind.net/wiki/Template:Ref <-the main tool we use, (we use this most of the time)

http://coppermind.net/wiki/Template:B <-shorthands for citing books

 

Really though, I wouldn't worry to much about it.  You will learn, and until then it is easy enough for us to fix things.

Hey Cartith, great edits on the Set article I made some stylistic edits for readability, and marked it complete.

I would note that to link within the Coppermind, use [[ ]], not the {{wp}} template (the latter actually links to Wikipedia).

Thanks for your help!

I copy/pasted the {{xx}} straight from Joe's reply, and looked up the guide on the wiki. Thanks for the tip.
