Those few things will deal with about 80% of the markup on the wiki -- check out [[Help:Editing]] for more when you need to know it.
 
=== Copying TV Tropes ===
 
You can only legally do this if it's your own edits, or the edits of people who have specifically granted you permission to post it here as CC-BY-SA 3.0. TV Tropes uses the incompatable CC-BY-NC-SA for edits after June 2012, so we can't use those. See [[All The Tropes:Copyrights]] for more details.
 
=== Creating New Pages ===
 
In general, you should select a boilerplate for the type of page you're making: work, trope, trope YMMV subpage, etc. It's a little menu just above the edit box. Don't copy paste from the current version of TV Tropes (see the section above). We don't use [[CamelCase]], we do use spaces and proper punctuation (e.g. ''[[Mars Attacks!]]''), and names are case-sensitive (except for the first letter). And if you're making subpages, they do not go in a different namespaces, as in TV Tropes. Instead, they are just normal subpages, like <code>Work Name/Trivia</code> or <code>Work Name/Recap/Episode 1</code>.
