Merge from Help:Editing pages
Talk status
This discussion is done as of Dec 13, 2021.
I've merged the contents of Help:Editing pages here, as these two pages seem to cover essentially the same subject. The wiki help documentation is already split into quite a few documents from where to read introductory editing information: with these two, Gentoo_Wiki:Guidelines, Formatting, the Project:Wiki page, and Project:Council/Code_of_conduct.
If this is unwise, please revert the last edit to this page. If not, I'll redirect links from Help:Editing pages to here, and mark that page for deletion. I'll wait a little before continuing edits to this article, in case it gets reverted.

- Any page in the Help namespace is often created by the mediawiki software and is required to exist. Upon upgrade if it does not exist, will just be restored anyway. --Grknight (talk) 01:25, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
- I see, thanks!!
- Might it be an idea to integrate the contributor guide to Help:Editing pages then? Or redirect that page to the guide ?
- No. We would want to keep them as separate articles to reduce headaches in merging content in the future upon wiki upgrades... I think it would be a good idea to link the two pages in the See also section, if not done so already. Wiki text is more difficult to merge than code. I think this discussion can be closed. --Maffblaster (talk) 22:05, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
- Oh, I had completely forgotten about this discussion, sorry, it's now "obsolete". The Help:Editing_pages page is now totally different: it only contains info about the "edit" MediaWiki page, and all relevant content is merged to the "contributes guide". Sorry for not closing this earlier. -- Ris (talk) 22:14, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
