Other Game Lines

From V5 Homebrew Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The 5th Edition of the World of Darkness has become very popular, and many fans have been longing for new editions of their favorite game line. In this section of the wiki, contributors can provide their own personal takes on the 5th Edition lines that haven't been updated, such as Werewolf or Dark Ages.

How to use this section

Like all portions of the wiki, the section below is designed to make extensive use of templates and wiki sorting, to provide an ease of use for contributors and readers alike. If you are a contributor, please read this in full. If you are only interested in seeing what has been contributed to the wiki, please move on down to the Other Game Lines section.

Adding Content

Adding content is a pretty straightforward affair, but the administrators of the V5 Homebrew Wiki ask that you do the following:

  • Before you create a page, please check to see if that page exists. You can check this via the search bar or by manually looking in the tabs for the page. Ex: If you're going to contribute Werewolf the Apocalypse 5th Edition, check to see if a page with that name exists.
    • If it does, please make your title slightly unique in some way. For consistency's sake, we would ask that you mark any duplicate Rules as v# (for version), so that they can be easily sorted. Ex: If there is already a Werewolf the Apocalypse 5th Edition on the wiki, please use Werewolf the Apocalypse 5th Edition (Your Username) as the name. This will help maintain some order to the wiki.

How to Add Content

There are four primary ways to add content to the Other Game Lines section of the V5 Homebrew Wiki:

  • Registered wiki users can add the pages themselves, by using the Add Other Game Line forms below. Simply enter the name of your Other Game Line and the form will pre-populate the things you need to fill in for the template to function. Simply fill out the pre-populated template, filling in everything after the equal signs with your own data. Unlike other sections of the wiki, due to the different game lines that could be submitted, the template for them is very basic and primarily covers credits and ensuring the right sorting happens. You will want to be familiar with wiki code basics like lists, links and such to effectively use this page.
  • If you feel uncomfortable adding your own material or have trouble with it, you can e-mail the wiki administrator, and they will add it. There is a 24-48 hour average delay for things submitted in this manner to be added.
