== What to contribute? ==

* Вы всегда можете исправлять проблемы, поправлять грамматику, make sure wording is accurate, и т.д. (See Editing Pages)

* Here you can find articles that need content: [[:Category:Needs Content]]

Here are our practices we follow when moderating content, which the extension itself recommends:

The following good-practices are advised:

# Должны быть отклонены только вандальные правки. Not-so-good edits with good intentions (e.g. adding excessive plot details into the Wikipedia article about film) are better made Approved and then reverted as usual. This way the author is not offended and the text is saved in page history, viewable by anyone.

# Any user that is deemed legitimate (does N good edits) should be added into <code>automoderated</code> group.

# Adding users to <code>automoderated</code> group via <code>$wgAutopromote</code> is NOT recommended, as it motivates the vandals to do many very-minor edits (e.g. adding interwiki). Better promote them to <code>automoderated</code> manually for one good edit and not promote for 30 useless-edits-made-for-count.

# Abstain from using blocks. Don't protect pages "just in case", except maybe for important templates.

# Allow the full rehabilitation of users with a bad history of editing. Their useful edits to the articles should be allowed, no matter how many times they were blocked. At the same time, trolling on talk pages should be rejected, so are the purposely-low-quality edits.

# Go [https://gitlab.com/ddnet-wiki/ddnet-wiki.gitlab.io/-/tree/master/static/videosherehere here] and download the correct demo

Now you can edit and use the map for the demo.

# Create a new map in the editor

# Set the background color to <code>#5E84AE</code>

## Click on the <code>quads</code> layer

## Right-click the corners of the rectangle

## Insert the color value <code>#5E84AE</code> into the third to last field each each

# The main focus should be that it is comprehensible

# Keep the style simple and similar to the other videos

#* Use simple textures (preferably <code>grass_main</code>, combined with <code>generic_unhookable</code> and <code>font_teeworlds</code>)

#* Make it loopable, you can get creative with that :)

#* Insert a scale if suited

==== Step 2.1: Recording the demo ====

# Turn demo recording on

#* I suggest <code>Settings -> General -> Automatically record demos</code>

# Load the map on a server

#* Start your own DDNet server or use the [https://trashmap.timakro.de/ Trashmap] hosting service

# Join it with your client, try the trick until you are satisfied with the result and keep loopability in mind

* Hammer: brownbear

* Pistol: coala

* Shotgun: cammo

* Grenade: redstripe

* Laser: bluestripe

* Hook: default

* Jump: bluekitty

==== Step 2.2: Cutting the demo ====

# In your client, go to <code>Demos -> auto/</code>

#* Tip: Click on <code>Date</code> to sort by date

# Use the 2 buttons on the left of the camera icons to select a starting and end point

Tip: you can repeat these steps multiple times to be able to cut the demo more precisely

==== Step 2.3: Converting the demo to a video ====

* Set zoom to 10: <code>cl_default_zoom 10</code>

Some of the following steps might be a little overwhelming. You can simply ask one of the wiki admins to do the remaining steps.

==== Step 3.1: Cropping the video ====

==== Step 3.2: Uploading the video to the wiki ====

To upload a video to the wiki first you need permissions, if you are considered a trustworthy contributor you will get them, if you consider yourself trustworthy you can ask an administrator to consider giving you the permission to upload files.

To upload a file you can go to [[Special:Upload|Upload file]] link on the sidebar.

==== Step 3.3: Inserting the video into an article ====

To insert a video into an article, first you have to choose whether it fits in the text or on a side.

Usually, if the text mentions some steps to take or the video is directly related to a text, it's better to put it there like this:

If you consider it better to be floating on the right side, you can do this

Or with a thumb and a label:

<nowiki>[[File:myvideo.mp4|thumb|This video shows this!|gif]]</nowiki>

If you think the video is too small, you can specify a size:

If you identify a common occurrence, such as weapon info boxes, you can automate it creating templates, more info [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Templates|here]].
