[edit] Logging in with a username
Although you can edit any page on the Phantom of the Opera Wiki even without a username, it is probably better that you create one. Two of the advantages of doing this are...
- 1. You will be recognized for your work.
- 2. You will be more trusted, as most often edits from someone represented by an IP address are at first thought to be vandalism.

[edit] Character articles
There is a simple style that is usually used when creating character articles:
- Use the Character Template and fill in all applicable fields.
- Bold the name of the character in question the first time it is mentioned in the article. Typing it like '''this''' will bold it.
- Make sure to link to other pages when they are mentioned. Do this by putting two brackets at the beginning and the end of the word(s). [[Like this]].
- At the bottom of the article, categorize it. To do this, type the code below:
- [[Category:Category Name]]
Of course, you would replace 'category name' with whatever category you want to put the page in.
[edit] Images
You can use images to illustrate pages where appropriate. Upload by clicking on 'Upload file' on the left side of the screen in the 'Toolbox' section. After doing this you can add your image to any of the pages by using this code:
[[Image:yourpicture.jpg]]
