User:Auevi/Wiki Contribution Guide

Welcome!

Hey there, welcome to the Official Hello Kitty Island Adventure Wikipedia — we're so glad you're here! On this page is a guide where you will be able to learn more about how to edit pages, upload photos, and more!

The Wikipedia is an publicly accessible website intended to provide everyone and anyone further support and to be used as a resource while playing the game!

Ground Rules

In order to ensure our Wikipedia Community continues to be friendly, helpful and fun, here are some ground rules:

No vandalizing or griefing: Contributors put a lot of hours and effort into creating wiki guides and wiki pages for the HKIA community, please respect the work of original page contributors and editors. This includes:

Removing large pieces of content
Creating inappropriate content/unrelated content

If you intend to remove any large pieces of content from a page, please send a message in the "wiki-org" channel on Discord with your concern and what you intend to remove. Re-organization of pages or small edits are permitted, however!

We prohibit certain types of content: This wiki is specifically for Hello Kitty Island Adventure information, therefore creating inappropriate content/unrelated content is not allowed.

Any content that does not follow this guideline will be reverted and/or deleted. Content that is ALLOWED includes:

Photos taken while playing the game
Informational text that pertains to "how-to" information or is valuable to the playing experience.
All content must pertain to Hello Kitty Island Adventure, including all Images must be from the game and not from other sources.
No Links to 3rd Party Sites or Information without Approval from Sunblink.

In regards to adding unreleased information obtained via datamining or time traveling, we do not regulate that information; however, if you intend to add such content, please use the {{wiki}} stub to indicate that the information on the page was obtained that way. If you don't know how stubs work, please see "Stubs and Templates".

Sunblink has mentioned that they do not regulate the wiki for unreleased information obtained via datamining or time traveling, thus this type of content could be added to the wiki, at the wiki contributors' discretion. However, unreleased information obtained via datamining or time traveling should NOT EVER be discussed in the Discord server ... never ... regardless of whether or not it's on the wiki.

All users of the wiki (both contributors and non-contributors) should be aware of and acknowledge that the HKIA wiki is strictly an information hub for game content (released or unreleased), thus it is their responsibility to be mindful of the content they consume online.

However, as wiki contributors, we must always do our best to accommodate all users of the wiki and be respectful of those who do not wish to view spoiled or datamined content by adhering to our guidelines about information obtained via datamining or time traveling. See "Unreleased/Datamined Content Guidelines".

Be respectful: This is just common sense—treat others how you want to be treated!

Getting Started

Now that we've got that out of the way, lets begin! Your first step is that you must create an account before editing the wiki, congrats!

Creating a page

You can create a page by searching a term in the search bar on the upper right-hand of the page! When you press search, you will see "Create the page "PageName" on this wiki!", and press on the red text. Or, if you click on any red text on a already created page, it will take you to a page where you can begin creating a page. Basically, red text = no page!

Uploading Images

You can upload images by pressing on the "Upload File" tab under the "Tools" section in the left-hand side of the wiki page. You can also upload images while editing pages (see below).

Make sure that the images you upload are high-quality! In-game icons such as Tags, Critters, Fish, etc. MUST be .png files.

Editing Pages

To edit a page, there are two types of options: "Edit" and "Edit Source".

"Edit"

Go to the "Edit" tab at the top of the page. Once pressing it, you will be taken to the page editor, where you can begin writing, contributing, and more!

On the top left of the page, you can change the type of heading of the text, which includes: Paragraph, Heading, Sub-heading 1, Sub-heading 2, Sub-heading 3, and Sub-heading 4. You don't really have to worry too much about the other ones if you don't know how to use them!

The A button can be used to edit the text's style. To do so, you can highlight a piece of text and press the button. You can Bold, Italicize, Underline, ~~Strikethrough~~, Enlarge (Big), Shrink (Small), ^Superscript, and _Subscript a piece of text.

To add a link to a piece of text, you can highlight a piece of text and press the button, which will then bring up a search bar where you can link a piece of text to another page on the wiki. Sometimes you may need to search for the page instead of immediately pressing the "Done" button. If the text is red, that means that there is not a page created for that specific word.

You can add bulletpoints or numbering to the page by pressing the Bulletpoint button. Feel free to use them when you write!

You can use bulletpoints when creating a list!

You can use numbering when creating a step-by-step guide!

The "Insert" button contains a bunch of options that allow you to add other types of content to a page!

"Images and Media" allow you to search for an image or upload your own. Once selecting an image, it will appear on the page & you can edit the image's appearance.
"Template" allows you to insert a previously created Wiki Template, See "Stubs and Templates".
"Table" allows you to insert a table... however, on the HKIA wiki, we have created our own special table style to be used on ALL pages! If you want to create a table, we recommend copying the table from an previously created page or using "Edit Source" to create your table. See "Creating Tables" for how to add a table to a page.
"Comment" will allow you to leave a comment to future editors of a page. Comments do not appear in "Read" mode.
"Gallery" allows you to insert a photo gallery on a page. You can select which photos you want to put into a gallery when it is being created. Make sure that the image you want to add to the gallery is already uploaded to the wiki, as you can only select from images that have already been uploaded.

"Edit Source"

If you've learned some basics of HTML or other website design coding, you probably know how to already use this, but for those who haven't, we'll go over some of the basic things you might want to know!

Stubs and Templates

Stubs

You can add Stubs and Templates to a page in "Edit Source" mode by using open and closing brackets and inserting the text in-between. Here are the following stubs that you can use while editing or creating pages:

{{Stub}} is used to indicate that a page is not yet completed. If you see or have any information that is missing on a page, please use this stub!

This page is not complete.

{{Spoiler}} is used to indicate that a page has game spoilers and ensures that users of the wiki can choose whether or not they'd like to continue reading the page if they do or do not want to avoid any game spoilers. If you see or have any information that is considered a spoiler on a page, please use this stub!

Spoilers may be contained on this page.
Players may want to avoid or be cautious toward reading this article/section.

{{Wiki}} is used to indicate that a page has content that has been obtained through the use of data-mining or time-traveling. This also ensures that users of the wiki can choose whether or not they'd like to continue reading the page if they do or do not want to avoid any future game spoilers. Additionally, this stub indicates content that may be changed or altered in the future. If you have or see any information that is not yet in the game, please use this stub!

This page contains unreleased, data-mined content that is not currently available in the game and may change in the future.
Please do not discuss any unavailable content on the official Discord.
[CLICK BANNER TO SHOWHIDE]

{{Removed}} is used to indicate that a page has content that has been changed or removed from an previous game version. Additionally, this stub indicates content that has been changed or altered. If you have or see any information that is different from the current game version, please use this stub!

Information on this page may not be accurate to the most recent version of the game, due to in-game content being removed or altered from previous versions.

Templates

You can add Stubs and Templates to a page in "Edit Source" mode by using open and closing brackets and inserting the text in-between.

Here are the additional templates that you can use while editing or creating pages:

List of Templates

If anyone has created any templates that would be helpful for certain pages, please add them to the wiki guide here!

{{iconlink|PAGENAME}} will generate a link with the image beside it, the image is clickable and will send you to the page of whatever you're linking to. it should work for most stuff, but if you want to use a different image you can also specify {{iconlink|PAGENAME|image=IMAGE LINK}}

To use Spo, input {{Spo|WRITE HIDDEN TEXT HERE}} and everything inside the template will be hidden by default until you click on the purple Spoiler banner. To use Spo/Table, use it within a table like |- {Spo/Table}} and everything in the following row in the table will be hidden by default until you click on the purple spoiler banner.

You can also use a pair of templates to use to mark huge sections of a page or even an entire page as data-mined spoilers. Put {{Spo/Start}} before the section you want to mark and {{Spo/End}} right after.

How to Create a Template

To create a template, you must use "Edit Source" mode to design the template. Once you've finished creating it, you can use it on the wiki! You can also find resources online that have pre-designed templates that can be useful.

You can create a template page by going to your browser's URL and change the text to be the following:

hellokittyislandadventure.wiki/wiki/Template:TemplateName

*Change "TemplateName" to whatever you want your template to be named.*

You can also create templates for content that exists on an already created page! In order to do so, you must go into "Edit Source" mode , then above the area you'd like to capture within the template, type <onlyinclude> then at the bottom of the the area you'd like to capture within the template, type </onlyinclude>. Then, on the page you'd like to add the template to write {{:PageName}}.

For example, if I wanted to include a table from the Hats page on the Clothing page, I would edit the Hats page in "Edit Source" mode, write <onlyinclude> at the top of the table, and </onlyinclude> at the bottom of the table. Then, I would edit the the Clothing page "Edit Source" mode, and write {{:Hats}} where I'd like the table to appear.

If this all seems tricky, don't worry! You can always send a message to the "wiki-org" channel on Discord to have one of the wiki experts make one for you!

Quest Pages

When creating a quest page, please follow the following formats.

Individual Quest Page

Individual quest page names must be identical to how they are displayed in game. If there is a page with the same name as the quest, include (Quest) at the end of a page's name. When writing a written description/guide for the quest, you should refer to the player in third person (i.e. "the player").

The basic formatting for the page is as follows:

The first section should contain the title of the quest, what type of quest it is, a basic introduction to what happens during the quest, the "main idea", or what game feature it unlocks. It should also include the requirements for unlocking the quest.
The second section should include a Sub-heading 1 titled "Quest Description". Below the heading should be the in-game quest's description in quotation marks and italicized. Below the quest's description should include a cropped image of the completed quest in-game tab. The image's style/appearance should be altered to match previously created quest pages.
The third section should include a Sub-heading 1 titled "Quest Information". Below the heading should be an written description/guide for the quest.
- When first mentioning a HKIA character, include a tiny image of the character, the name of the character in bold text with a link to the character's page. Any following mentions of a character should (at the very least) include a tiny image of the character and the name of the character. EX: Hello Kitty
- When first mentioning a location, include a tiny image of the location (if applicable), the name of the location in bold text with a link to the locations's page. Any following mentions of a location should (at the very least) include a tiny image of the location and the name of the location. EX: Seaside Resort, Mermaidifier, Hopscotch Islands
- When first mentioning an item, critter, fish, etc., include a tiny image of the item (if applicable), the name of the item in bold text with a link to the item's page (if applicable). Any following mentions of a item should (at the very least) include a tiny image of the item and the name of the item in bold text. EX: Magic Wand, Pizza
  - If you're explaining how to craft something you can write something like the following (and include a collapsable table if you think I'd be useful): To craft the _ItemName_, the following materials are required: 5x Woodblock, 2x Spark, and 1x Mechanism.
The fourth section should include a gallery of images taken while completing the quest.

If you don't want to manually complete the page formatting, you can copy the formatting from a previously completed quest page. In order to do so, you can go to an previously created quest page, select "Edit Source" mode, copy the text, then close (you don't have to save) the page. Next, go to the quest page you want to create, open "Edit Source" mode, and paste the text that you just copied. Then, for ease of use, change into "Edit" mode.

Here are a few example pages that you can copy page formatting from: Comic Relief, Picture Perfect, Reboot the Robots, Espresso Machine Repair, Magic Bubble Wand (Quest).

Quest Series Page

Quest series page names must be identical to how they are displayed in game and include (quest series) at the end of a page's name. When writing a written description/guide for the quest, you should refer to the player in third person (i.e. "the player").

The basic formatting for the page is as follows:

The first section should contain the title of the quest, what type of quest it is, a basic introduction to what happens during the quest, the "main idea", or what game feature it unlocks. It should also include the requirements for unlocking the quest.
The second section should include a Sub-heading 1 titled the name of the quest identical to the name. For example, The Fun in Furniture: Part 1.
The third section should include a Sub-heading 2 titled "Quest Description". Below the heading should be the in-game quest's description in quotation marks and italicized. Below the quest's description should include a cropped image of the completed quest in-game tab. The image's style/appearance should be altered to match previously created quest pages.
The fourth section should include a Sub-heading 2 titled "Quest Information". Below the heading should be an written description/guide for the quest.
- When first mentioning a HKIA character, include a tiny image of the character, the name of the character in bold text with a link to the character's page. Any following mentions of a character should (at the very least) include a tiny image of the character and the name of the character. EX: Hello Kitty
- When first mentioning a location, include a tiny image of the location (if applicable), the name of the location in bold text with a link to the locations's page. Any following mentions of a location should (at the very least) include a tiny image of the location and the name of the location. EX: Seaside Resort, Mermaidifier, Hopscotch Islands
- When first mentioning an item, critter, fish, etc., include a tiny image of the item (if applicable), the name of the item in bold text with a link to the item's page (if applicable). Any following mentions of a item should (at the very least) include a tiny image of the location and the name of the location in bold text. EX: Magic Wand, Pizza
  - If you're explaining how to craft something you can write something like the following (and include a collapsable table if you think I'd be useful): To craft the _ItemName_, the following materials are required: 5x Woodblock, 2x Spark, and 1x Mechanism.

Sections 1-4 should be repeated until the final quest in the quest series is finished. After the final quest in the quest series, include a gallery of images taken while completing the quest. You can also put galleries in-between parts of quest series too.

If you don't want to manually complete the page formatting, you can copy the formatting from a previously completed quest page. In order to do so, you can go to an previously created quest page, select "Edit Source" mode, copy the text, then close (you don't have to save) the page. Next, go to the quest page you want to create, open "Edit Source" mode, and paste the text that you just copied. Then, for ease of use, change into "Edit" mode.

Naming Conventions

Pages

Overall, make sure you name pages correctly & identical to how they appear in-game—including capitalization! They can be changed after the fact though if you make a mistake.

Pages that may have the same name in-game, or have very similar names, are special cases. For example, Mocha and Mocha (Item), or Lucky Star and Lucky Stars (Quest), or Pochacco Energy Pop (Quest) and Pochacco Energy Pop (Item). Use your best judgement when naming these pages or consult senior wiki contributors for what to do!

Images

Images cannot be renamed after the fact, so make sure you do it right the first time! Additionally, all commonly used images/icons will be named identical to how they appear in-game (99% of the time). For example, if you're looking for an image of Hello Kitty, if you search Hello Kitty in the search bar when selecting an image, you will be able to find the correct image.

Many of our images also include the word "Icon" at the end, for example, if you're looking for an image of the Joke tag, if you search Joke Icon in the search bar when selecting an image, you will be able to find the correct image. File:JokeIcon.webp

If you're new, I recommend using this link here to look at the names of images or searching for images that you're looking for: Special:ListFiles. If you have issues finding an image, you can send a message to the "wiki-org" channel on Discord for some help.

Sometimes images will have abbreviations at the end of them, like "-Desc", "-L1", or "-5". This just makes uploading way easier and keeps images organized or easy to find. For example, if I wanted to find an image that showed the location of the 27th tophat gudetama, it would be called File:Gudetama-W27-L1.png and File:Gudetama-W27-L2.png. Or if I wanted to see the 4th image for the Cinna-Run-Around quest, it would be called File:Cinna-Run-Around-4.png. You get the idea?

Creating Tables

You will use the following table method while creating tables on pages! You can either a) copy a table from a previously completed page... in order to copy a table you can highlight the table on a page that has a table (I don't recommend using this page) and then do Command + C on your keyboard, then paste the table on the page you want the table to be with Command + V!

OR b) copy the following text, then go to the page you want to create, open "Edit Source" mode, and paste in the text that you just copied. Then, for ease of use, change into "Edit" mode.

{| class="wikitable c-table"
!Title
!
|-
|Text
|
|}

Changing Table Settings

If you'd like to change the table settings, go into "Edit" mode and click on the table. Then, press the "Properties" button.

If you want the table to be sortable, turn on the "Sortable" setting. This will allow users to press on arrows that allow them to sort the table.

Example:

Title
Text

If you want the table to be collapsable, turn on the "Collapsable" setting. This will allow users to collapse and uncollapse the table as desired.

Example:

Title
Text

If the "Collapsable" setting is on, you can also choose to have the table "Collapsed initially" which will always make the table collapsed when the page is visited, making the user have to uncollapse (or "Expand") the table to see the content inside.

If the "Collapsed initially" setting is off, the table will NOT be collapsed when the page is visited, making the user have to collapse the table to NOT see the content inside.

"Collapsed initially" Example:

Unreleased/Datamined Content Guidelines

Sunblink has mentioned that they do not regulate the wiki for unreleased information obtained via datamining or time traveling, thus this type of content could be added to the wiki, at the wiki contributors' discretion. However, unreleased information obtained via datamining or time traveling should NOT EVER be discussed in the Discord server ... never ... regardless of whether or not it's on the wiki.

All users of the wiki (both contributors and non-contributors) should be aware of and acknowledge that the HKIA wiki is strictly an information hub for game content (released or unreleased), thus it is their responsibility to be mindful of the content they consume online.

However, as wiki contributors, we must always do our best to accommodate all users of the wiki and be respectful of those who do not wish to view spoiled or datamined content by adhering to our guidelines about information obtained via datamining or time traveling.

Below are some guidelines for including unreleased/datamined content on the wiki:

Ensure that the page has, at the very least, the {{Wiki}} stub at the very top of the page. For more information, please see "Stubs and Templates".
Keep unavailable content to whatever page is made for it as much as possible; that is, not put it on pages that compile info. If you'd like to include unreleased/datamined content on a certain page, use the "Comment" feature. For more information, please see "Editing Pages".
Where it basically has to go on a page, if possible, separate out the unavailable content into an auto-collapsed table with an extra warning in the title. (Some people totally ignore the giant warning at the top or pretend not to see it.) That also helps keep the tabled text from popping up in wiki bot results. OR use the "Comment" feature.
If the availability is ambiguous, we should treat it as unavailable until proven otherwise.

You can use the following methods to hide datamined/unreleased content in the following ways:

1- Collapsable Table

In "Edit Source Mode" you can copy the below code and paste it on the page you're editing. Then, go back to "Edit" mode and insert the content.

{| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed c-table"
! style="text-align:center" |Warning! Unavailable content!
|-
|the unavailable contents
|}

2- Page Comment

In "Edit" mode, there will be an "Insert" button that has a "Comment" option. "Comment" will allow you to leave a comment to future editors of a page. Comments do not appear in "Read" mode.

To do this, first go into "Edit" mode, and insert a "Comment" onto the page.

Once you've inserted a "Comment" onto the page (in "Edit" mode), go to "Edit Source" mode and insert the unavailable content.

*All of the text/content inside of the comment should be in wikitext language (aka compatible with "Edit Source" mode).
