Things to do

There are many different things you can do to help make Terraria Wiki the best it can be. The following is a list of things you can do to help the wiki, no matter your skill level there will be something you can do to help out.
  • Pages in Article stubs need to be checked to see if they really are a stub. If not remove the {{stub}} template and the category. If it is, expand the article so you can remove the stub.
  • All pages in Needs Attention need to be cleaned up and removed from that category.
  • Add Infobox templates to pages:
  • Add pictures to infobox templates that are missing them: Check the Picture Database before uploading new pictures.
  • Add additional pictures to pages. Two pictures is generally the limit, although larger pages or pages with a complex information can add additional pictures.
  • Mark blurry/dark pictures with the {{delete}} template, but make sure they aren't used on a page first. It will say on the pictures page if it is used.
  • Fix basic spelling/grammar errors.
  • Summarize/rewrite long winded info: i.e info that goes on and on but only says something little.
  • Move any update info/history under a "Heading 2" labeled "Update Info"
  • Move any notes/tips under a "Heading 2" labeled "Notes"
  • Remove pages from categories they shouldn't be in. See Special:Categories for a list of all categories used on the wiki.
  • Update/remove old info and add missing new info: many pages have no "Update Info" even though they have relevant update info.
  • Write "User Guides" which are just guides written in blog posts. Add User Guides as a category to the blog when finished.
  • Replace/update incorrect links. Remember you can link to a section of a page link this: [[Environments#Dungeons|Dungeons]] which will take you to here.
  • Remove red-link pictures. eg. File:Image.png
  • Remove videos that have been deleted from youtube.
  • Remove redirects from categories; redirects shouldn't be in any categories.
