Okay, just to prove I'm still a noob at heart, even after hanging out around here for just over a year, how exactly do you create a wiki entry for a webcomic?
The existing entries seem to follow a standard format with a nice, neat info box etc but - when I try to start a new entry - all I'm presented with is a blank input field.
A bit of basic hand-holding would be much appreciated here!
 Many thanks, D.

Clan of the Cats is a Good Template to Work From
I rewrote the Clan of the Cats entry recently and it's a model for formatting an entry at the Comixpedia wiki - copying and pasting that and then just changing the info to your webcomic would be an easy way to create a new entry.

Wikis do have a bit of a learning curve, but since Comixpedia's encyclopedia is based on the same MediaWiki software, Wikipedia's editing tutorial may be useful. It's available at:

Once you've read through this, I recommend viewing the source of a Comixpedia article and use it as the basis of your own. For example, you can look at the source for the Clan of the Cats article at:
