This wiki grows alongside the game. These are the rules that keep it from drifting
apart from the build.

== Language ==

English is the reference language, exactly as in the game's own translation layer
(<code>src/i18n/en.ts</code>). German articles live as subpages: <code>Anchor</code>
and <code>Anchor/de</code>. Put {{Tl|Languages}} at the top of both.

Page titles use the item's English display name, not its internal id. The id belongs
in the infobox, where the generator can find it.

== Page types ==

{| class="wikitable"
! Type !! Infobox !! Category
|-
| Item || {{Tl|Infobox item}} || <code>Items</code>
|-
| Creature, enemy || {{Tl|Infobox creature}} || <code>Creatures</code>
|-
| Everything else || — || by topic
|}

== Images ==

* File name matches the page name: <code>File:Oak Log.png</code> for [[Oak Log]].
* Sprites are uploaded at native pixel size and scaled up in the article — the wiki renders them with <code>image-rendering: pixelated</code>, so no smoothing.
* Screenshots: PNG, unscaled.

== Status banners ==

* {{Tl|Stub}} — in the game, article still empty.
* {{Tl|Planned}} — not in the game yet.

Both are normal here. An honest empty page beats a page that quietly lies about what
the build does.

== Items are generated, not typed ==

Item pages are meant to be written by a generator that reads the item tables and
<code>src/i18n/en.ts</code> straight from the repository, uploads the icons and fills
the infobox. Anything a script can derive — name, id, stack size, icon — is not worth
typing by hand and would only drift. Prose, tips and screenshots are what people add.
