Editing Guide[]
Common mistakes[]
- Adding double spaces or line spaces
- Changing ability effect/description, see Mass-replace section below
- Changing the unit race to their native game race instead of Brave Exvius' in-game race
- Wrong value for learned abilities minimum rarity. Minimum rarity means the ability can be learned at higher rarity
- Wrong enemy's ability damage type (physical/magical). Elemental damage might not be magical. Their visual can be highly misleading
- Wrong proc information due to Arena / Colosseum random number generator's seed bug

Mass-replace[]
Manually editing any type of content with multiple occurrences should be avoided. This includes ability short description. Instead you should request it on requests page. Once it's approved an admin can mass-replace them.
Videos[]
- You may add your video content in the appropriate section at the end of the article.
- To be able to add an external link, you need to contribute by editing 3 or more times.
- You are allowed to insert your name as well as a meaningful description.
- Always add your video at the bottom of the table below everyone else.
- If three or more videos by the same creator are to be added to an article, then they are to be put into a playlist and used as a single video link.
- If the page does not use the new format (below), copy it and add the previous videos in it (you do not need to search for the authors names)

Adding a new type of content[]
If you want to add something that is not covered anywhere else, please discuss it first with the administration. See above for the Discord link. The content will have to adhere to the following guidelines:
- Useful - Majority of the people will benefit from the information

Wiki Translation[]
We allow anyone to translate the wiki to other language. The steps for translating are as follow:
- Contact the head admin Cysidus about the translation.
- Create a new page with "/languagecode" added to the end of the pagename of the page you wish to translate. i.e. If you want to translate the page "Rain" to French, you would create page "Rain/fr". For a list of language codes, please see this page.
- Translate the text of the page and at the bottom of the page, add the page to the category:
[[Category:LANGUAGECODE translation]]
. i.e. Translating a page to French would have[[Category:FR translation]]
added to the bottom of the edit. - Once core pages has been translated, AND there is a person in place willing to be the head admin of that translated wiki and moderate it, a sub-domain can be set up for that translation. i.e. A translated French wiki would be created at
https://exvius-fr.gamepedia.com
. - We expect the head admin to update and manage this new wiki.
Notes[]
- You will need several people to handle the translation as well as administrating the new wiki.
- Core pages: Main page, all the pages linked in quickmenu, and a handful of item/unit pages.
- The "/languagecode" can either be temporary, or removed once they are transferred to the new wiki.
- Translation status of the game's official language:
- French: Incomplete.
- German: Not started.
- Spanish: Not started.
- Korean: Not started.
- Traditional Chinese: Not started.
