Who can contribute

Anyone who is an active member of the client modding community may contribute. To request an account, reach out to us via the #vencord-wiki channel in our Discord Server.

If we don't recognise you, we will likely reject your request, to avoid abuse and stay as informative and correct as possible.

What to contribute

First, you need to find a topic to write about. You can either add to an existing topic, or create a new topic. Please make sure it is on topic (aka client mod related in some way). When in doubt, discuss in the aforementioned Discord channel first.

Contribution Guidelines

  • Remain objective. For example, do not include your personal opinion, such as calling specific mods or clients better than others, or personally attacking other users.
  • Avoid slang words. Write in proper grammar. Consider using a tool like Grammarly to check your grammar and spelling.
  • Include informative images. Add proper captions to images. Consider adding an Infobox.
  • Add citations via the <ref> tag where possible
  • Structure your article into sections
  • Try to keep your formatting consistent with other articles and wikipedia. If you don't know how to replicate it, view the source of different articles that have what you want.

Uploading Files

  • All files must have a meaningful name. Providing a description is encouraged.
  • You must specify the license of files and be accurate. Non-free images, like logos must be correctly marked as such.
