Editing VMK — Disneys Online Worlds

VMK

Discussion about the wiki or on wiki topics can be found at:

VMK Forums "Disney's Online World Guide" forum

If you are making a new item page, here is a rough guide how:

Each item will get their own page, named after the item and (if appropriate) its color. If the color isn't part of the name, include it in parenthesis. For example, Candy Cauldron and Aladdin's Flying Carpet Chair Blue and Jolly Roger Long Sleeve (Blue). Create this page by linking to it from anywhere - use the VMKWiki Sandbox if you can't think of another place.
Use the template below for most furniture items, adding the correct information and adding any other categories that may be necessary (for example :Category:Beta Checklist).
To include the page you just created in a list (ie - not link to it, but include its contents), use a format like this: {{:Candy Cauldron}}. Note the :, it is important.
Don't forget to add a price and image if you have them. If you don't have an image, use the {{ImageNotAvailable}} tag to mark it - this will make it look better and easier to find later.
As always - preview things. But remember that you have to save the item's page before you can include it in another page.

Room Map Template

What it looks like

When creating a new map of a room, use the following template.

Summary

Item	Color	Cost	Photo	Location	Notes

Room Map

Key:

# - regular space ()

x - exit space ()

<noinclude>

[[Category:Guest Rooms]]
</noinclude>

If the item is from a secret code, show this using:

Secret Code

PROTECTED17

If the room is from the room shop, show this using:

Room Shop

PROTECTED18

If the room is available when making a new user, show this using:

Available when creating a new user

PROTECTED19

Additionally, we have some utility templates. {{room shop}} currently just prints "room shop", but will eventually be changed to provide a link to information about how to shop for rooms. Similarly Available when creating a new user is meant for rooms that can be your starting room. {{roomSize|size|r=#|x=#}} is used to provide room size information. Currently, just the first parameter (the overall size) is used, but include the rest of the information for completeness. the "r" parameter is for "regular squares" (what we usually represent with a #).

Credit Rewards Template

To include credit rewards in a table of other items, you can use the {{credits|price|optional note}} template. For example, including {{credits|10}} generates this table entry:

Item	Color	Cost	Photo	Location	Notes
10 Credits					For more information see Credit

You may also include an optional note.

Price Template

Pricing items is very simple now using the following templates. "num" is the number of credits (for example 1000).

PROTECTED28
PROTECTED29
PROTECTED30
PROTECTED31
PROTECTED32 (to indicate how much an item sells for)

Output is:
Dnum
S/Dnum
X/Dnum
Q
{{salePrice}}

Additionally we have a way to indicate that an item is non-tradeable:

PROTECTED33

Output is:
non-tradeable

Released/Re-Released/Retired Templates

As items are release, retired and re-released it is important to make note of those dates (see date format below). These templates are for the status, you would then add the date. There is another to indicate the item was released as part of a yard sale or another limited event, so no specific date was recorded. There is also a tag to indicate the item was released during Beta and then removed.

PROTECTED34
PROTECTED35
PROTECTED36
PROTECTED37
PROTECTED38

Output is:
Released:
Re-released:
Retired:

Limited re-release through Host Yard Sale

Discussion community comments archived from Talk:Editing VMK

Should the stuff Spinmarty put on the bottom of the page still be there since the info that is there is already above, and that it's not in the same format event though he said to ignore it for the moment? --Haveamagicalday

I think we are missing some templates like the ones for Hat pics, I know last time I did a hat page I couldn't find them here. It would be appreciated if one of the editors who added some of these templates could get the info onto this page, thanks!--UpInTheAir 16:16, 20 December 2007 (CST)
