| | <center>Hello, hello, thank you, thank you. Teller here present to you!</center> |
| | | <center>'''THIS WIKI AND YOU PART 4: THE REALMS OF THE APPRENTICESHIP'''</center> |
| Greetings people of ACWiki, Teller here presenting all you people with something that's annoying me. I'll tell you a story of what happened in Music class, '''heed my words. Heed them well people.'''

| ===TheSt0ryTeller's Music Class Chair Fight===
| |
| {{Dialogue|Ol' Man Teacher|Settle down class!|Student 1|Fuck you Mr.Douche|The Musical Class Chair Fight.|User:TheSt0ryTeller}}
| |
| | |
| Alright, well, it's one hot as day at school, we're just '''chilling''' (not pun intended) and all of a sudden I see a Year 8 kid run out holding a chair chasing another. We all laugh and decide "Chair fight!" and we all grab a ''plastic'' chair and start swinging them at each, people are rolling under tables, chairs are flying and the "nerdy" kids are cowering in the corner, being the man I am, I went out there and battled with my best friend. The battle was long and the Teacher tried to calm us down but we relent. One student call him "Mr. Douche" and we all had a laugh, in the end, we're all abit bruised and lying on the ground, exhausted.

| |
| {{Quote|I em 12 and wat is dis?|A user with horrible grammar. -.-|Assassin's Creed Wiki}}
| |
| | |
| Over the couple months I've been here, I've noticed hundreds of anons '''bitching''' about the Admins, '''insulting''' other users and, in the IRC, come on for '''5''' seconds then leave but that one, albeit annoying, is not the case. You can come online and insult another, though it's not the right thing to do and will most likely get you banned, but at least have the '''balls''' to sign in and not be an Anon. Also, use proper grammar, I cannot stress this enough, when some says "I fing that Cellu is farggy" or anything like that, I read it out as it sounds to make you look stupid, although your grammar already shows that. So think before you insult one another, you shouldn't, but if you do, at least let me read it properly. Cannot stress this enough.

| ==This Wiki and You Part 3: Into the world of Source mode editing==
| |
| [[File:This_Wiki_and_You_logo.png|center|350px]]
| |
| {{Quote|Use the source|War Clown to a person who uses visual mode|User:War Clown}}
| |
| [[File:SourceModeandVisualModeTabs.png|thumb]]
| |
| Source mode editing is very common to Wiki, while editing you may have noticed two tabs at the top that say Visual and Source. Visual is basic editing but the problem is that it doesn't disclose to you Templates, Userboxes or anything that (besides the information) is '''extremely crucial''' in making a good article. This guide will show you not only what is necessary in source mode editing such as '''bolding''', ''italics'' among others, but will also delve deeper into source mode showing you more on templates, userboxes ect. So, let's get started.
| |
| ==Basics of Headers==
| |
| [[File:Header_in_Source_Mode.png|right|thumb]]
| |
| {{Quote|After a while, the '''characters I'm writing''' begin to feel real to me. That's when I know I'm '''heading''' in the right direction.|Alice Hoffman|http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/keywords/heading.html}}
| |
| Headers in source mode are '''extremely''' basic, to create the headers you'll need to use "=" signs which are required in '''major''' and at some stages, even '''minor''' source mode edits.
| |
| | |
| The diagram on the right shows the 5 examples of headers, headers are fairly simple and are necessary in maintaining any article in particular, they aid in spacing out and even making an article neater. Most articles you, the reader, have probably seen consist of these headers. As it goes Header 2, Header 3 and so on, it will each be divided into smaller sections of each part of the article.
| |
| | |
| ==Basic Editing (Bolding, Italics, Strokes and Underlines)==
| |
| {{Quote|All you're trying to do in an improvisation is get as much material as possible for the editing room.|Martin Short|http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/keywords/editing.html}}
| |
| [[File:Italics_Bolding_Underlining_Striking_Source_Mode.png|thumb]]
| |
| | |
| This diagram right here is what your sourcemode bolding, italics, strikes and underlining would look like. It is very simple to use and contrary to some people's belief, source mode editing with things like headers and basic editing is simple if you have a helpful guide such as this.
| |
| | |
| '''Examples''': '''Bolding''', then you have ''italics'' aswell as <strike>striking</strike> and even <u>underlining</u>.
| |
| | |
| ==Userbox Creation==
| |
| {{Quote|Because of the diverse population of wikipedia, there are also diverse views on userboxes, userbox policy, and other details.|Royalguard11 of Wikipedia|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Royalguard11/Userbox_personalities}}
| |
| [[File:Userbox_example.png|thumb|300px]]
| |
| | |
| Userboxes are general to our Wiki, they "spice up" our pages to make them look even more nice and sometimes show achievements. '''We'll overlook these Steps ONE-BY-ONE!'''
| |
| | |
| Border-C means Border-Color, you can choose a variety of colors using [http://www.computerhope.com/htmcolor.htm|HTML Color Codes].
| |
| | |
| ID is either the text or the picture on the right of the userbox which can vary.
| |
| | |
| ID-C stands for the ID-Color which can be chosen from a variety of colors using those HTML colors codes which were linked to previously.
| |
| | |
| ID-FC is the ID Font Color just in case the user adds text to the userbox ID section.
| |
| | |
| ID-S means ID-Size, determining the '''size of the Text in ID.'''
| |
| | |
| Info should be fairly obvious but just in case, to simply put it, it is the main text that goes inside the userbox.
| |
| | |
| Info-C means Info-Color which is the background color by the previously mentioned Info.
| |
| | |
| Info-FC stands for Info Font Color which is the color for the info-text.
| |
| | |
| Lastly is the Info-S which is, to put it simply, the size of the Font.
| |
| | |
| ==Linking and Quotes==
| |
| {{Quote|I think we did a pretty good role, linking, being a sounding board really and a driving force, especially from the bottom up. I think that part of this is bottom up as well as top down.|Richard Rogers|http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/keywords/linking.html}}
| |
| [[File:Quotes_and_Links.png|thumb|350px]]
| |
| A quotation or quote is the repetition of one expression as part of another one, particularly when the quoted expression is well-known. By using one "[ aswell as ]" on each side leads to an external link. Using two <nowiki>"[[ aswell as ]]"</nowiki> on each side.
| |
| | |
| <nowiki> For quote, the simplest way to put it is, it goes like this. {{Quote|The Quote itself goes here.|The person who said it.|Source}} </nowiki> | |
| | |
| ==Sourcing and referencing==
| |
| ===Regular Source and References===
| |
| {{Quote|When using quotes, you must reference them an essay and in an bibliography, or in any article.|Sourcing and Referencing 101|User:TheSt0ryTeller}}
| |
| [[File:Reference.png|thumb|350px]]
| |
| | |
| Where it says <nowiki> <ref name="Assassin's Creed II"> </nowiki> at the top, it indicates that the Reference name itself is actually, in this case, Assassin's Creed II whereas where it says <nowiki> "[[Assassin's Creed II]]"</ref> </nowiki> is actually linking the Reference to the page itself. At the bottom, once you place the normal <nowiki> <ref name="Assassin's Creed II" /> </nowiki> it will show up as a small number, the number depends on which order of reference, so if AC: Brotherhood was first, that would be number 1, then if ACII is after it, it's number 2 and so on.
| |
| | |
| At the bottom of the page, using the second header, create a new section titled Notes and references and add <nowiki>{{reflist}}</nowiki> which will make all the references appear.
| |
| | |
| ===Image Policy Sourcing===
| |
| [[File:Image_Policy_Sourcing.png|thumb]]
| |
| {{Quote|All images must be properly sourced and serve a functioning use on the wiki.|Image Policy Note|User:Jasca Ducato}}
| |
| order to source images, all users should use the Information template in order to clearly provide all the necessary pieces of information. Whilst it is not mandatory for individuals to use this template, it is recommended. Sourcing your images is a '''VITAL''' part of editing because you may be warned more than once if it continues.
