<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''{{SITENAME}}''' is written by players of [https://signaller.org signaller.org], the multiplayer Stepford County Railway (SCR) signalling simulator. Anyone can read it. Anyone with an account can suggest changes, which go live once an Author has checked them.<br />
<br />
== Who does what ==<br />
=== Guests ===<br />
Anyone reading without signing in. Guests read the approved version of every page, and can create an account from the top of any page.<br />
<br />
=== Users ===<br />
Anyone signed in. Users can edit any page, but their edits wait for an Author's approval before readers see them; until then, the page shows its last approved version, with a link to the newest one. Users talk freely on discussion pages, and look after their own user page without approval.<br />
<br />
=== Authors ===<br />
Volunteer editors, chosen by Staff. Authors check other people's edits and approve the good ones (see [[Special:ApprovedRevs|pages awaiting approval]]); their own edits are approved as they save them. Authors also upload pictures and move pages.<br />
<br />
If you would like to become an Author, ask a member of Staff.<br />
<br />
=== Staff ===<br />
The signaller.org team. Staff can do everything Authors can, look after the wiki's settings, deal with vandalism, and choose Authors.<br />
<br />
== Approving edits ==<br />
For Authors:<br />
# Open [[Special:ApprovedRevs|pages awaiting approval]].<br />
# For each page, open its history and compare the approved revision with the newest one.<br />
# If the changes are good, open the newest revision and choose ''approve''. If they are not, edit the page back and save; your edit is approved as you save it.<br />
<br />
== How to write ==<br />
* Write for someone who has just opened their first session: short sentences, plain words, one idea per paragraph.<br />
* Explain what the player sees on the screen and what to do about it.<br />
* Link to other pages the first time you mention them.<br />
* Add each page to a category, such as <nowiki>[[Category:Zones]]</nowiki> or <nowiki>[[Category:Guides]]</nowiki>.</div>Admin
