Make your first edit!

  • Register for an account: Click the "Create account" on the top right of the page and follow the instruction there (Temporary in Chinese).
  • Start your first edit: Whether it's a simple correction of a typo, an addition of sources, or a more time-consuming addition of information or a new chapter, everything in Moegirlpedia starts with edits. Click the "Edit" button next to a subtitle or the "Edit" button on the left of the search bar on the top right of the page to lead you to a new page to start your first edit.
  • Preview the page: The most important step in editing is to preview it – see how the page will look like. The "Show preview" button is located below the edit summary box at the bottom of the page, to the right of the "Save page" button, and mostly looks like this: Show preview[d 1] In addition, clicking the "Show changes" button will show the differences before and after your edit. We recommend that you get into the habit of previewing every edit, as everyone may make mistakes. If you find something wrong with the preview or don't see what you want, recheck the input in the edit box and correct it.
  • Edit summary: When correction done, remember to fill in the summary to let other editors know why you've edited! A good summary should summarize the major changes in the edit in brief. If you need help, consider clicking "Show changes" and write a summary based on the changes you've made. If you've only made minor changes to the page, check the box "This is a minor edit" to make it easier for yourself and other editors to backtrack.
  • Save the page: Once you've written a summary of your edits and previewed the page, you can click "Save page" to complete the editing. If you don't find any errors displayed in red about the code, please save the page quickly to avoid editing conflicts. If you haven't seen your changes, remember to copy your edits to somewhere else before refreshing the page to avoid losing the changes. Thank you for editing! You'll see your changes right away.
What should I do if I get a warning when saving edits?

Don't worry! Despite the warning, you are generally not in trouble. Moegirlpedia has set up a number of "abuse filters" to check for some common problems automatically in editing. When meeting prompts from them, remember to "check, fix and try again".

  1. Check: See what the abuse filter is asking you to do, and then check your code. For example, abuse filter 8 provides a prompt: square brackets are not paired. Did you accidentally delete a square bracket when writing an internal link?
  2. Fix: Fix the bug you've just found. For example, if the abuse filter 8 is triggered, and you find that [Moegirlpe-tan]] appears in your editor, just change it to [[Moegirlpe-tan]]. In particular, you can skip this step if you've read the prompt carefully and are sure your edit has nothing wrong.
  3. Try again: Try saving again. If you still see a warning, you can try again the procedures above, or if you really don't understand what the abuse filter is asking you to do, you can try saving it directly, and leave it to a more experienced editor - you've tried to correct your mistakes but not succeed.

There are also some abuse filters that don't allow you to save the wrong edits. If you really don't understand what the abuse filter is asking you to do, copy your changes and abuse filter number and ask on the Discussion board.

Wikitext basic

When editing Moegirlpedia, we often need to implement various effects through wikitext or HTML syntax. The most basic are here for you to memorize and review, however you don't have to master them all at once, and can always come back and review the unfamiliar parts. You can choose to bookmark this chapter for later use. As a reminder, the help button in the editor is also useful.
