Preamble
Originally, the "EncyclopAtys" was created by players who wanted to record as many (if not all) RPG and MMOG on the one hand the story of their character and on the other hand the tricks to survive in the universe of Atys. He constantly mixed "Gameplay" and "Roleplay".
Like any wiki, it has been enriched with data, documentary "pages" and various tools of "normalised" representations.
It later inspired wikis, German and English twins also based on Mediawiki (and Wikipedia). These two wikis needed to exchange images, as they often worked together, so this was the birth of the "Ryzom Commons", the place where images (and other media) can be shared.
It should be remembered that at that time the game universe was slightly different under each DE, EN and FR server, which caused a lot of confusion, even frustration, during the fusion. It was thought that languages such as Spanish, which is very present all over the world, and Russian, which is widely used in Eastern Europe, could promote the game, so two more language wikis were created.
The need to create a workplace for development and a workspace to avoid misinterpretations of the previously too secret tradition giving free rein to the imagination of players led to the creation of two new wikis.
The first three wikis were independent, 100% managed by volunteers. They had gradually been fully integrated into Ryzom's servers.
With a desire for simplification and above all for visibility, the two wikis, Forge and Lore, have been integrated into the "linguistic" wikis of the players so that they can access their information very easily:
- Those of the Forge to keep up to date players interested in the progress of development.
- Those of the Lore in order to avoid the drifts of scenarios of players and developers.
Thus was born the new architecture of Ryzom wikis, architecture that had to answer the questions :
- What is the Ryzom game?: the Ryzom Universe, given by the ("'Lore"'), and how to play there.
- In which world do I live?: Atys, planet|the planet, so its flora, its fauna, etc.
- What are the races I can play?: Fyros, Matis, Tryker or Zoraï.
- What are the divine or assimilated powers of the planet, as well as the large out-of-State groups that will direct my acts?: Kami, Karavan, Marauders, Rangers, Trytonists.
And then the "Encyclopedia" co-managed by the players and animators:
- Atys Chronicles which are the official texts to describe the past.
- The Great Library contains all the player experience that does not necessarily fall into any of the headings above.
- The X-files ;-) contains the "behind the scenes" of the wiki.
The following cartridge summarises the various important points of interest and access to associated information. This cartridge should be present at the end of pages on all portals, and sometimes as an introduction to some key categories.
Ryzom: The Lore • The Game OOC
Atys: Atys world • Flora • Fauna
Nations: Fyros • Matis • Tryker • Zoraï
Factions: Kami • Karavan • Marauders • Rangers • Trytonists
Encyclopedia: Atys Chronicles • The Great Library • Mysteries OOC
A documentary site managed by several groups
With such a past, it is necessary to return to context and consider well that the role of each imposes restrictions and options of different rules and instruments.
- First of all, we must not forget it, the readers. For them we wrote.
- Then "contributers" who will have different knowledge can divide it into three groups.
Players and animators
This is the group of those who are present in the game and who "lives" in it and makes it live. We can add to this group translators and "SysOp" who are also players or animators.
- Players enrich the documentation based on their own experience. It is interesting to see in this case the wiki as an RP extension of the game, but not an obligation. At the same time, unlike wikis like Wikipedia, it is useless to invent a nickname, we already have the one(s) that we have for the game. Obviously, secret agents or members of clandestine factions can use the nickname of their nickname. In fact, Ryzom wants to be an RP game and it can be enjoyable, even motivating, for players to invest in the wiki as a character rather than as an anonymous worker. Sometimes the information will be mandatory IRL. The case has been planned and the details will follow.
- Animators will appear with their animator nickname when expressing themselves as an animator, it is the same for developers and lorists. The last two have a workspace in the wiki a bit separated from the others.
- Translators are those who ensure as far as possible the dissemination of information in each language.
- The SysOps monitor and ensure the quality of the site, open accounts and guide beginners, the "SysOps" is like the steward for passengers of a plane, while the "piloting" is provided only by the administration of the Ryzom system.
Developers
The developers, associated with the "Forge" project, use this wiki workspace to share centralised information (forging categories). All FORGE documents are at least referenced on the "'FORGE site in English"'. Ideally, any document from The Forge would be translated into two languages, including English, because English is not a neutral language as Esperanto or any other international "mathematical" language, so, it is a minimum of courtesy for other cultures.
The Forge field collects both Ryzom history and "assets", but also tips and tricks, for example, using GIMP instead of 3DsMax.
- also contains the description of using our staging tool: the ARK.
"Lorists", guardians of the universe of Atys
The "lorists" also have their workspace (lore categories), knowing that this space is public (there is no secret on the wiki), and that they are supposed to protect official documents by putting their stamp and "blocking" the modifications.
To get started
There are two problems to start on a wiki. On the one hand, there are the purely technical rules and on the other hand, there is the spirit of the wiki. Being the latter often considered essential to offer online documentation, and to prevent users from discovering a thousand and one online documentation tool, it was chosen to use something known to all and that is very well documented : the Mediawiki, widely represented by Wikipedia whose aids are well updated.
First of all, never hesitate to ask for the help of an "experienced guy" because the loads of things to discover is impressive. And how can I find those "senseis"? The easiest way is to find out who is frequently present on the wiki to contribute to it. And for this you will only need to see it here for each language :
- de:Spezial:Aktive_Benutzer
- en:Special:ActiveUsers
- es:Especial:UsuariosActivos
- fr:Spécial:Utilisateurs_actifs
- ru:Служебная:Активные_участники
Information search
There are two types of searches :
- We know what we are looking for and use a few keywords to achieve it : this is what the Search: field at the top of wiki pages allows. You can read with interest: en:Help:Search.
- One is interested in a field of knowledge, and in this case it is the thematic portals that will "guide" readers.
- In the latter case, there are no portals responsible, because all contributors, arguing with others not to blindly break the existing, can improve it in the idea of always better sharing information.
- Categories are "pillars" on a wiki. We advise you to examine the page categorization.
Who am I ?
You want to contribute to our wiki, if only to correct horrible typos and even more horrible grammatical errors and even worse, sure of your experience, drilling and harvesting techniques. Congratulations! but you must have an account to work in our encyclopedia.
Getting an account is one of our protections against all vandals on the web. But the alternately "marauders and tritonist spirit" is deeply rooted in the homin who does not understand that this restriction is due to the fact that the few "SysOp" of Ryzom wikis were not numerous and were present enough to protect and clean the wiki from the various attacks it suffered. Finally, it was decided that only Ryzom players could contribute and that the only way to find out, in the absence of a hopelessly empty "homin" CV, remained to use a "ryzomian" name of a player character. And in this case, why not make this character express in RP mode here ?
When creating an account, at the top of the page, on the right, above the field described above, there are a number of links that point to items in your profile.
- Your name allows access to your profile. In the latter you can write your RP "profile" and your IRL specialties(wiki role, language skills, etc.).
- Talk is the page where other players/contributors will contact you. It's a tradition to add a Level Two title for any new topic, sign with all four "~" (~~~~), and indent each response Ssublevel by starting the line with ":" more than the previous paragraph.
- The following: Preferences, Watchlist, Contributions and Log out are not specific to the Ryzom wiki.

Break the blank page
Over time, the wiki has become a rich and therefore complex tool at first glance. Do not hesitate to ask for help from the active users of the site. Sponsorship is free! (at least for now because later, the old one, it will be you :-) )
First of all, it is necessary to get used to the organisation of the wiki and know that some "things" are automated.
The three main automated "things" are document page management (or images on the proper wiki as will be explained later), categorisations, and templates that format certain data or push object that has been entered on the page.
The documentary pages
The writing of the documentary pages, has been described by several authors at different times:
- The first one in 2005: fr:Aide:Premiers pas by fr:user:Karouko
- The "fusion" version 2012: guide de rédaction
- The actually one with many additional information from Craftjenn, including the public publication of the previous guide en: Writing Guide from Introduction to the Ryzom Forge Wiki.
Categorización
Uno debe ver la categorización en el aspecto de la teoría de conjuntos. Mediawiki maneja las categorías como conjuntos que se pueden incluir en otros, lo cual es muy conveniente para encontrar rápidamente elementos que comparten el mismo conjunto de definiciones. Por cierto, es inútil categorizar la categoría base (o raíz) en una categoría superior porque, siempre desde un punto de vista de los conjuntos, por defecto Mediawiki se comporta como el conjunto Universo, es decir que contiene todos los conjuntos. Por lo tanto, todo el arte de categorizar estará en la elección de los primeros troncos y las primeras ramificaciones que agrupan grandes series de información.
Para visualizar esta noción de categorías de anidamiento, imagine los siguientes dos ejemplos: Lydix Deps el propietario de la taberna de Pyr y su licor a base de Shooki
- Lydix pertenece a las categorías:
- La Categoría:Personajes no jugadores Fyros que pertenece a la Categoría:Fyros y a la Categoría:Personajes no jugadores
- Sin embargo, la Categoría:Fyros pertenece a la Categoría:Civilizaciones de Atys que son parte de la Categoría:Pueblos de Atys (que incluye tribus y primitivos) que pertenecen a la Categoría:Habitantes que encontraremos en el siguiente ejemplo.
- Por otro lado, la Categoría:Personajes no jugadores pertenece a:
- la Categoría:Homins que pertenece a la Categoría:La Gran Biblioteca porque contiene textos escritos por los jugadores según su propia experiencia.
- la Categoría:Gameplay porqu es un mob.
- la Categoría:Animación porque los PNJ a veces son parte de un evento
- y por fin a la Categoría:Roleplay, como "figurante" participando en un juego de RP.
- La en:Category:Figures of Burning Désert que pertenece a la Categoría: Personalidades que está en la Categoría:Homins. De hecho, si Lydix pertenece a los fyros, no debemos olvidar que muchos otros homines no fyros viven en el desierto.
- El shooki pertenece a la Categoría:Plantas inteligentes y Categoría:Flora del desierto ambas en la Categoría:Flora, una de las principales ramas de la wiki.
Las categorías permiten a los jugadores buscar información sabiendo de lo que se trata, pero no sabiendo con cuales palabras específicas. Por ejemplo, uno podría buscar un PNJ cuyo nombre olvidó pero que recuerda vendiendo cerveza en el desierto ardiente.
Además de estas categorías "enciclopédicas" también hay categorías técnicas de trabajo.
La mayoría de estas categorías se pueden insertar a través de "plantilla", lo que simplifica la vida del colaborador. Estas categorías están detalladas para "especialistas" (Loristas, traductores, mantenimiento de la wiki...)
¡OJO!: las imágenes serán todas (para las 5 wikis) alojadas en el Ryzom_Commons, que está en inglés, con algunas excepciones locales. Si tiene muchas imágenes para cargar, a menudo es mejor comenzar creando una subcategoría, y especialmente nombrar las imágenes mucho antes de importarlas. Se puede consultar mas en: en:SOS/catImage.
Formato
Tanto para el traductor como para el jugador que lee más de un idioma, es útil encontrar en cada wiki la misma interfaz. El diseño contribuye a esta uniformidad visual.
Además, la forma de presentar cierta información es a veces muy repetitiva de un wiki al otro y por lo tanto tediosa de "copiar/pegar/adaptar". Las "plantillas" ayudan a simplificar la tarea de los colaboradores. Pero al mismo tiempo, cuanto más hay plantillas y reglas, más los escritores se sienten neófitos sobrecargados con cosas que adquirir.
Todas las buenas voluntades pueden escribir y mejorar las guías de esta wiki que es nuestra. Se tiene un forum en donde se puede discutir con los otros a propósito de todas la mejoras posibles.
Portales y páginas principales
La página de inicio es la página predeterminada a la que llega el lector. Debe ser diseñado para dirigirlo rápidamente a sus intereses. Esta página está protegida.
Los portales son una invención de la Wikipedia francesa que no se refleja de la misma manera en todas partes en Wikipedias. Los portales son puntos de entrada para temas y, a veces, proyectos. Fueron elegidos para poder responder a las diversas preguntas que los jugadores se hacen a sí mismos y para servir como punto de bienvenida para los proyectos de La Forge y en general para todos los equipos de animación de Ryzom. Un portal siempre tiene el mismo esqueleto :
- Pestañas para acceder a sub portales o portales afines.
- Enlace a la categoría que contiene las páginas asociadas al portal
- Introducción que lo presenta
- El cuerpo de la puerta incluyendo
- A la izquierda una página publicitaria para atraer el lector a descubrir màs
- A la derecha, una lista de inserciones que indican los puntos que se supone importantes para navegar dentro y alrededor del tema. Un ejemplo se proporciona en Portal:Portal. Sin embargo, hay muchas variaciones dependiendo de los intereses del tema.
- En la parte inferior, siempre, la navegación en el sitio: "los principales portales de la Wiki Ryzom"
Los artículos que pertenecen a un tema representado por un portal siempre se hacen incluyendo al final del artículo banda(s) de navegación, como se puede ver a continuación.
