As a first order of business, in order to edit pages a wiki-account is '''required''' - this is a method to reduce the possibility of grief showing up on the Wiki itself. Just ask in the [{{Constant/Discordurl}} #wiki-and-mentor channel] on the Yogstation Discord, and our [[Wiki_Team|wiki staffers]] will gladly assist you in getting started. Account creation is handled by Gavius#3817 and ktlwjec#9403, so your request will either be relayed to them, or you can speak to them directly about it.

We welcome all contributors and assume good faith for all edits made, so there are very few protected pages. Wiki Administrators do however patrol changelogs to correct small errors and combat intentional misinforming edits, so please be mindful and be ready to explain your edits if it raises a red flag. The best way to prevent misunderstandings is adding proper summaries for all your edits. Once you've received your account, don't be afraid to jump in and start correcting and adding to pages.
