Categories
Articles are added to a category by placing a tag for the category in the article. For example, you want to add a page named "Kaiser Tarantula (Beta)" to the Beta Server Villains category, you would place this somewhere on the Kaiser Tarantula (Beta) page:
- [[Category:Beta Server Villains]]
After saving the page with that category tag, you would then see the page listed in the category. --Eabrace 01:09, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks. I was actually working on doing that, but my session wound up timing out without me realizing it and I got distracted by other things. --Kaiser Tarantula 01:44, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
- Okay, page should be fixed up. Gonna work on getting some ingame images to pretty up the character page with. --Kaiser Tarantula 01:58, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
Interwiki Links
Another tip you might find handy is how to use interwiki links. Since Paragon Wiki and Ouroboros Portal share resources, we've made it easier to link between the two. Any page on PW can be linked from here using a "paragonwiki:" link. Any page here can be linked from PW using an "oportal:" link. And any page on Wikipedia can be linked using "wikipedia:". For example:
- [[paragonwiki:Super Strength|Super Strength]]
will give you this:
Similarly, this:
- [[wikipedia:City of Heroes|City of Heroes]]
yields this:
It's also probably worth mentioning that all images for Paragon Wiki and Ouroboros Portal are stored in a single repository, so if you want to use an image you already know exists on PW over here, you can embed it as though it was uploaded as part of this wiki.
For example:
- [[File:Power Set Icon-Super Strength.png|100px]]
embeds this image:

- Ah, I wasn't aware Ouroboros and Paragon Wiki were on the same repository and could use interwiki links; most wikis I've worked with don't support the function. Still, that'll come in handy, thanks. Kaiser Tarantula 10:58, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
