Default Wasn't sure where to put this Wiki help

Okay, so as I'm going, I start finding holes in the wiki so I feel a duty to fill in the blanks when I can. Not exactly certain 100% on how to edit some of the stuff in the right format. I created "a crystal purifier" page after copying the "a crystal lurker" and queen format for Crystal caverns. I'm not exactly certain what to fill in for the emu_id or illia_id. It seems the picture is a little too big and can't find much of info on the stats yet , but learning as I go. If anyone can help guide me a little better or even if they can swing by and fix it would be appreciated.

I often edit / add to the wiki you're welcome to ask me questions if you ever need help.

This is a probably the best page to start reading: http://wiki.project1999.com/Help:Contents

When making new pages I use this: http://www.destinati.com/project1999wiki/wikiUtils.php

Words of warning. Always preview your edits/additions before you submit them. Take extra care in making sure you didn't miss a closing bracket or punctuation somewhere.
It is very easy to mess up an entire page if you simply forgot or accidentally removed something.

Feel free to PM me or leave a message on my discussion tab. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Be sure to leave a signature time stamp if you do so I know when your message was added. (There is a button at the top "Your signature with timestamp")
I also mention this button because if you edit or change a wiki page and you're unsure or think your addition is accurate. It's best to leave a message in the discussion section of that wiki page including your sig/timestamp.

Edit: I took a quick look at the http://wiki.project1999.com/A_crystal_purifier page. looks fine to me. I did a look on alakazam and there is no entry for this mob. So you wont be able to use that neat tool for creating new pages I linked. You don't really have to worry about emu_id or illia_id to be honest.

As far as researching stuff, I find wayback machine invaluable for various searches. In this case you would point it at some site that was running back in 1999-2002 with the old item stats or recipes etc and it'll likely be there. You can then flip through the calendar and see as the page updates take place within reasonable proximity.

Sweetness. Thank you guys for your input. Really appreciated. Starting to get better and previewing like a mofo before I change anything. Just making sure wiki is updated as far as I know. Just little things here and there, but it helps when you don't have the right links and such. Thx for the clarification Baler on the ID's. Kinda turned into a past time of mine to update pics, info... ect when I'm medding.
