Overview

This page contains the general guidelines for The Lore Project as well as editing help.


Structure Information For Contributors

The URL of all the pages in the Lore Project begin with: www.ParagonWiki/wiki/Lore/

Other pages will fall under that directory tree, e.g.:

  • www.ParagonWiki/wiki/Lore/Multiverse
  • www.ParagonWiki/wiki/Lore/Multiverse/Rikti Earth
  • www.ParagonWiki/wiki/Lore/Multiverse/Upsilon Beta 9-6
  • www.ParagonWiki/wiki/Lore/ArcheTypes

And so on.

The Wiki will automatically leave breadcrumbs at the top of each sub-page showing one's place in the directory.


Common Practices

As much as possible, all lore should be referenced. That can be done by:

  • A link to a ParagonWiki article, such as one that references a story arc: E.g., [[Timothy_Raymond#Lost_and_Found|Timothy Raymond's Lost and Found Arc]] which will appear as Timothy Raymond's Lost and Found Arc.

If the source of the lore comes from text in the game, then there should already be a page on ParagonWiki with that text. Just link to that page as your source.

The other major sources of lore would be the novels, Strategy Guides, comic books, and Dev postings on the official forums.

Editing Help

Red links indicate the page does not exist yet. By clicking on it, you'll be brought to an empty editing page. If you type in some info and save it, you will then be creating that page. Otherwise, new pages can be created from the field on the main page of ParagonWiki.
