Welcome to D&D Wiki![edit]

Welcome!

Hello MJL, and welcome to D&D Wiki! I hope you are enjoying D&D Wiki and have been finding the information here useful. Before you start contributing, we recommend you make sure your user preferences match your preferences.

Questions

If you have any questions about a specific page please ask it on that page's talk page. If you have a D&D-related question, you can ask it on DnD Discussions. Everything relating to D&D Wiki's administration can be asked here. If you need to contact another user, please use their talk page.

Formatting

Syntax can be very difficult, and if you need help a good place to start is Help:Editing on Wikipedia (or even their Introduction page). This will explain basic wiki formatting and should provide quite a few useful links that explain more specific areas of wiki formatting. Help:Portal also provides detailed explanation of information important specifically to this community.

Community

A strong and welcoming community exists on D&D Wiki, and I'm sure you will find us friendly. To enable the community to function, a number of policies are in effect. Most importantly, we follow and expect you to follow Wikipedia's guidelines on civility and etiquette when discussing anything. As most work has multiple authors, please do not delete content without following our removal process. When posting a comment on a talk page, please ensure you sign your name with four tildes (~~~~) or by clicking on the signature icon (Signature icon.png). This will automatically produce your name and the date. I hope you come to enjoy D&D Wiki and the community. Welcome again, you are now a D&D Wikian. --SirSprinkles (talk) 21:53, 6 June 2020 (MDT)

@SirSprinkles: Thank you for the warm welcome! If you please wouldn't mind, could you verify me? –MJLTalk 12:47, 7 June 2020 (MDT)

CC-BY-SA[edit]

Hey, I noticed that you have been adding the CC-By-SA template to your pages. I understand wanting to keep claim to your work, but with the way the wiki works, you can't put that template on your articles, because of how the Creative Commons licenses work. By default, all articles are licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License 1.3. I would recommend checking out Help:Attribution Policy to understand why you aren't allowed to use the CC licenses on your work here. Good luck with your future work on the wiki! --PJammaz (talk) 18:07, 7 June 2020 (MDT)

It's more like I want other people to know that they are free to use my work in accordance with the terms of CC-BY-SA since GFDL is pretty restrictive. –MJLTalk 18:25, 7 June 2020 (MDT)
