Annex

This Wikia hopes to be a place where Wikipedia fiction and fiction-related articles that are too detailed, minor, or trivial for Wikipedia can be kept until they find a new home. Basically, any fiction-related articles threatened with deletion at Wikipedia may be posted here. Reasonable non-fiction articles threatened with deletion may be posted as well. See more details on Annex:Community Portal.

To write a new Annex article, enter the page title in the box below.

Getting a Wikipedia Article into the Annex

Here, search for the page and create a new page if not found.
On Wikipedia go to the page you want to bring here and click "edit", copy all the contents into your clipboard
Here, edit the destination page and paste your content. Save.
Here, edit the page to add Wikipedia: to the start of each inline link:

[[Link]] should be changed to [[Wikipedia:Link]]

Note: Images will have to be loaded here as they can only be linked to Wikipedia on their original size.

You must attribute the original authors in the page history or by using the {{Wikipedia}} template.

Taking an Article from Here to Another Wikia

Here: Add the template {{Wikiausedin|Wikia|Title_of_article_at_other_Wikia}} to the bottom of the article page (see instructions here). Post a link to the page on the new wikia. Save.
All Done!

Bringing Many Wikipedia Articles at Once

Users here are allowed to use Special:Import, a feature that lets you add several articles at once, with edit history. See the Import Tutorial for help.
