== Beginner's Guide to Mediawiki == Hello, this is the beginner guide to Mediawiki. Starting off with the complete basics, Mediawiki is the foundation of fandom, (which you most likely came from). Though this is a little harder cause Mediawiki uses HTML or Source to make wiki pages instead of the normal visual editor that people always use. If you can NOT understand HTML at all, instead of creating source pages, you can make the page on fandom, then change the visual editor setting to source instead, and copy the source "code" and paste it into a new page. You can create a wiki page by looking at your link in the search bar, you then can make a page by doing this "mediawiki.fanscarybaboonvr.wiki/mediawiki/index.php?title=PUT_TITLE_HERE_NO_SPACES_ONLY_UNDERSCORES&action=edit" you can change the PUT_TITLE_HERE_NO_SPACES_ONLY_UNDERSCORES to your title, for apostrophes, you put %27s, and there is some more to that but that's just how websites work for special characters. If you go to the top right of your screen, you should see a blue link that says preferences, in there, you can change the way you see the website, (in the appearance tab) (i use vector legacy for this). If you are at the main page, you should see Upload File, that is where you upload HTML, PNG, MP3's, or whatever it allows. There is another thing called Special Pages, but you use those to mess around with Mediawiki. For alot more info and documentation about mediawiki, check out their page. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki
