Why Not Edit?

Notice a factual error somewhere? See a formatting issue that nobody seems to have noticed? Try your hand at editing it!

A good syntax reference is here. Scroll below for a beginner's guide to wiki editing.

Don't be afraid to edit. It is easier to fix, than to have to build the whole thing. For a more laid-back atmosphere, you can state what you would change in the "Article-ToDo" section at the top of the page.

If you're looking for help or feedback, head on over to our official discord and @ai_relationship_wiki! This way you can talk in real time rather than waiting on the talk page.

Page Philosophy

Let's face it - we're not going to have a universal set of standards for everything, considering our weird and varied subject matter.

When doing something new, don't approach it with a bunch of pre-thought-out header structures in mind. Think to yourself, what would work best? Often, that's the way that gets the best results.

If you don't want to commit, feel free to add it to the article ToDo. These are technically talk pages - we jerry-rigged our talk pages to act as todo pages since we primarily use discord for discussion.

    • A starter guide to becoming an editor, explaining creating pages, formatting text, and adding images.

Should Reads

It's helpful to look over these pages before editing:

  • Neutral Point of View
    • A quick overview of Neutral Point of View, and how to use it.
  • Formatting Conventions
