This page will help you better understand how Coppermind works and how you can contribute.
== Your Account ==
The first thing you should do is '''create an account'''. The button to do this is in the top right corner, and it's very easy to do! Then visit the [[:Special:Preferences|Preferences]] link (top right corner) and make changes to your account settings if you'd like.
If you
== The Number One Rule ==
== Discussion Pages ==
Every page on the wiki has an associated discussion page, and it's accessible via a tab in the top left corner of the page. It's there to talk about changes, make recommendations, and so on. If you have a more immediate question about an article, you can alternatively post on the [http://www.17thshard.com/forum/forum/10-the-coppermind-wiki/ 17th Shard] or [https://discord.gg/
== User Pages ==
You can visit (or create) your own user page by clicking your username in the top right corner. Use this to tell others about who you are and what you're working on, if you'd like. You can also use it as a sandbox to experiment with new articles or more extensive edits before you change the real thing.
You can create additional subpages as well. Just append a
== Categories and Templates ==▼
Over the course of this guide you'll hear about '''categories''' and '''templates'''. We'll cover them towards the end, because a full explanation is on the more advanced side of what we'll talk about. But you'll see them come up here and there in the meantime. So let's talk basics. ▼
;Categories▼
: Categories are tags we use to group and sort articles. You can find any article using the book/series categories listed on the Coppermind home page or using the content categories in the left sidebar. Categories are used to group articles this way. You can see what categories an article is in at the ''very bottom'' of a page. Some categories must be included manually, but many happen automatically thanks to templates. ▼
;Templates ▼
: Templates make more complicated and/or repetitive editing tricks easier to do. If you ever see something surrounded by double curly braces (<code>{{}}</code>), it's a template. The template begins with the name of the template, which is followed by a number of ''parameters''--some required, some optional. Parameters are separated by vertical lines (<code>|</code>). ▼
== Other Resources ==
: [[:Special:SpecialPages]] provides a very long list of other pages you may find useful.

▲== Namespaces ==
Namespaces are an advanced topic. If you'd like to know more about how Coppermind is organized and why some pages (like this one) say things like <code>Help:</code> before the page name, then take a look at [[:Help:Namespaces]].
