			Edit the image page and add categories:
			* '''Image type''' - [[:Category:Art]], [[:Category:Screenshots]], or [[:Category:Skins]].
			* '''Characters''' - Use the format "x images," for example: [[:Category:Rhubarb images]]. "images" shouldn't be capitalized.
			* '''Author''' - Use the format "x by z," Where x is the image type and z is the author/artist/uploader. For example, [[:Category:Skins by Owls]] or [[:Category:Art by Allister]].

	'''Mature subjects''' such as sex and violence are allowed to be mentioned/implied on the wiki. However, explicit descriptions of sex (such as in a fic) are ''not'' allowed. Graphic violence is permitted as long as there is a mature content warning on the page. If a page contains mature content, include <nowiki>{{MatureContent}}</nowiki> at the top of the page, which will insert a warning.

			== Housekeeping ==

			There are a few markers you can use to help keep the wiki organized. Write the bold text at the top of a page to mark the page and/or add a warning.

			'''<nowiki>{{MatureContent}}</nowiki>''' - Adds a mature content warning. Mature subjects such as sex and violence are allowed to be mentioned/implied on the wiki. However, explicit descriptions of sex (such as in a fic) are ''not'' allowed. Graphic violence is permitted as long as this marker is present.

			'''<nowiki>{{Outdated}}</nowiki>''' - For pages that need updating. Adds them to the [[:Category:Outdated pages\|outdated pages list]].

			'''<nowiki>{{WIP}}</nowiki>''' - For pages that are incomplete. Simply adds a warning at the top of the page.

			My aim is for this wiki to be an out-of-character documentation of what happens in the server. This doesn't mean you shouldn't roleplay or have in-character sections on pages, because you can do whatever you want forever. But don't stop yourself from adding something to a page just because your ''character'' doesn't know about it.

			However— please refrain from sharing secrets that aren't public knowledge. Things revealed in the #weird-stuff channel, someone's blog, or knowledge you're ''certain'' most people already know is fair game to be included in a page. You're free to spoil your own stuff or give hints in character/build pages, if you want to do that. But don't spoil someone else's unless they've said it's okay!
