Create an Article

Latest revision as of 06:21, 4 December 2023

Welcome! This page will help you create an article on the Dogcraft Wiki! You can use this page to help create an article which will come pre-filled with a template to help you structure your article, as well as an infobox that you can fill in with some key information about your article topic.

Types of page

Select one of the options below to jump to the section to create a page on the subject!

Builds - Individual builds on the server, such as a house in spawn or a build within a base.
Bases - A collection of buildings that you and perhaps a others may live in - a place you call home!
Settlements - A collection of multiple builds that players can publicly live and build in!
Groups - A group of players that work together on something!
Events - Where players gather together to do something!
Projects - Where players work together to carry out a task, such as building or making something.
User pages - A page all about you!
Other pages / make a blank page - for stuff that doesn't fit into these categories, or if you'd like to start with a blank canvas!

Note that the options will create a base page which you can build on top of with information, but it's not the only - nor the best - way to make a page necessarily. If you feel like you're more confident with editing a wiki, you should try from a blank page instead.
