Contribution Guidelines

Welcome, archivists, lorekeepers, and mechanics-minded wizards! Whether you're fixing a typo, refining a rule explanation, or adding hard-earned FOIP discoveries, your contributions help keep Volaire rich, immersive, and player-accessible.

All submissions must go through one of the following channels:

• 📨 Submit a Support Ticket for suggested edits or new content:

→ Submit a Ticket

• 🗝️ Request Live Editing Access by contacting Eric if you're a trusted contributor or staff member.

*No coding experience required—just clarity, consistency, and a little respect for canon.*

To keep the Wiki consistent and helpful, all live edits must follow these rules:

• This Wiki is Out-of-Play (OOP) unless a page is specifically marked as In-Play (IP). Write in clear, neutral language for real-world reference.
• Stay Canon-Faithful – Do not invent lore or mechanics. Expand only with staff approval or official FOIP reveals.
• Use a Reference Tone – Think handbook or rule summary, not storytelling prose or personal voice.
• Avoid Power Creep – Don’t suggest mechanics, races, or abilities outside approved balance processes.
• No Religion – Volaire is a godless setting. Avoid religious terminology, cosmology, or divine references.
• Follow Formatting Standards – Use correct DokuWiki syntax (italics, bold, etc.) and the namespace: `operations:public:*`
• Proofread Before Submitting – Clean grammar and formatting are required. Sloppy edits will be reverted.
• Cite Your Sources – When referencing rules or lore, include the relevant Rulebook section or approved ticket #.

Here are examples of good contributions:

• ✅ Clarifying confusing rules or XP tables
• 📜 Uploading FOIP-approved crafting recipes or rituals
• ⚖️ Linking mechanics pages with appropriate conditions/effects
• 🧠 Expanding lore summaries without adding personal theory
• 🗺️ Enhancing location pages with known factions, exports, hazards, or political ties
