Introduction
First of all, I'd like to give you a warm welcome to this Wiki. It's great to get new editors sign up and watch them grow into model assets on this Wiki.
If you ever have any questions (no matter how big or small), please feel free to PM a Wiki Admin, Moderator or LoreKeeper as we are always more than happy to help.
We understand that it can be a confusing time when you first join the Wiki, as there are many threads you have to read in order to know how to edit and adjust into Wiki life. Hopefully this guide will help show you where to start, with a breakdown of all necessary information.
