Our World of Text:State of the Wiki: Difference between revisions

Before finalizing your edits, check if the article is an orphaned article (see {{Section link||Orphaned articles}}). If it is, and you don't have the time or knowledge to de-orphan it right away, you can add the {{tlx|Orphan|{{[[Template:DATE|subst:DATE]]}}}} template to the top of the page, marking it as an orphan. If you do, the simplest way to find articles that can be linked to the orphaned article is to click on "Related changes" (or shortcut {{key press|Alt|Shift|k}}), to see changes on pages linked to or from that page. If this doesn't help, then a little more research is required. First, read the article. Then, follow some related-looking outgoing links from the orphan to other articles, and do a Wiki-wide search for the article topic. Doing this will give you a much better idea of what it relates to. Not only will it probably give you information you can use to add meaningful links from other articles, but it will probably give you enough info to flesh out and improve the orphan itself.
