{{Quote frame |quote=You can build a world but breathing life into it takes more than just blocks. It takes a choice between order and chaos, a choice between justice and tyranny. |author=[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxS8cUbWYg4&feature=youtu.be 'Welcome to Civcraft] |title=Civcraft Trailer}}

''You must create an account to edit''

''Ensure you attribute images : This can be as simple as writing authors name in summary when uploading''

=== Why should I edit? What's in it for me? ===
====Recruitment====
* Free advertising for your group
* A single page to direct your nations new players so they can better understand the culture.
====Free PR improvment====
* Increase citizen patriotism and make your nation appear more legitimate
* Having a backstory makes it easier for others to empathize.
====Better subreddit content====
* [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/415706745566920716/422792069380177920/unknown.png Compare the old way of storing flags to the new] Its not hard to imagine projects like civball or political maps can be made easier
* Reading about nations makes civ seem living and breathing: Building with more than just blocks
====For future you====
* This wiki will far outlast civclassic. Next iteration read the wiki to learn from your mistakes.
* Preserve your groups legacy.

=== FAQ ===
* '''Q: How do I create a page?'''
Search for desired page name and press the central red link
* '''Q: How do I upload pictures?'''
There is an 'upload file' link in the left sidebar under 'Tools'. Try to have your filename contain keywords: Files can then be easily searched using [[Special:ListFiles]] or [[Special:NewFiles]]
* '''Q: How do I format my page?'''
Click the help button in editor toolbar to see basic syntax of links and formatting. Use <code><nowiki>{{Template:Civilization}}</nowiki></code> for a basic template. For examples and inspiration find a page in the [[Welcome to the Civclassic Wiki#Model pages|Model or Good Pages section]] and press edit in the top right. Copy the item you want and surrounding brackets: i.e. <code><nowiki>{{infobox ... }}</nowiki></code>. Additionally, when creating info boxes try to keep consistent with categories and order of other info boxes. Some specific formatting examples can be found in [[Editing guide#tips]]
* '''Q: Im still confused.'''
Join https://discord.gg/H74bEUp and ask for clarification or use a discussion page (Found in top left)
* Of course while well formatted pages are best, if you are struggling a sentence or two edit is much better than nothing!

=== Editor Piorities ===
* Contributing to an existing or creating a [[Special:WantedPages|wanted nation page]] is always first priority: If you have done all you can for nation pages:
* Create good templates - particularly an easy to use Nation creation template
* Determine how to make an accurate [[Somber War]] page: This is one of the most significant pages yet also most likely to contain controversial differing opinions. Possibly a basic timeline with references should be created first.
* Help improve the editing page and this summary - What are readers confused about, in what areas do editing guidelines need work?
* Merge the all new player guides into a single cohesive page and a summary in [[Welcome to the Civclassic Wiki#Getting Started | Getting Started]]
* Fix small common mistakes: Pages that [[Special:UncategorizedPages|lack a category]], pages without ccmap link and small formatting errors. To find these new pages use [[Special:NewPages]].
* Place small icons next to nation names so list such as the Good pages sections are easier to skim
* Eventually create a Category:Model articles & Category:Good articles and find a way to autolist pages in said categories in the [[Welcome to the Civclassic Wiki#Explore]] section
* If you are unsure something merits an edit use the discussion tab
