== How do i add a page ==

Im new, how do i add a page? — [[User:LargeP0RTAL|LargeP0RTAL]]

Hello,

First, you should add 4 tildes at the end of your message in order to sign it.

For your question, research the name of the page you want to create, and then you have the message ''Create the page "<pagename>" on this wiki!" under the search bar. Just click on <pagename> to start creating the page.

If the page you want to create is a translation of a page already created, just go to the english version of the page, then go to the adress bar and just add the suffix ''/<languagediminutive>''. For instance, if you want to do a french translation, add the suffix ''/fr''.

Sincerely yours,

== Random Page ==

== Asked about the IRC being broken ==

I can't access the IRC chat. Is it broken? Deleted? Or is my PC trippin'.. I'm sorry for using this for asking on the main page but I don't see any alternatives. bobanchoban77/frapsed 19:36, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

: Hello! The web version is available here: https://web.libera.chat/?#pwiki.

: Unfortunately, the chat is pretty much dead, most users are only idling. (I'm there as well, but I don't have much time these days :c) — [[User:Tark|Tark]] 21:23, 3 April 2022 (UTC)

== Blog Post widget ==

The Blog Post updater says the last post was on October 2, 2015 (2732 days ago), however the Portal 2 blog just posted on February 18, 2021. Am I misinterpreting something?

== Portal Link in Main Page Index ==

The link in the index for the list of games ('''Portal''') should link to "[[Portal (game)]]," not just "[[Portal]]," as that links towards the list of related articles. Since the [[Portals]] article is listed in the index, I think somebody who has editing permissions should take a look and address this.

: Good point, done. Reason it was doing this before was for the sake of uniformity/consistency with those dict string templates. I don't think it's necessary to use those for the link itself though. -- [[User:Lagg|Lagg]] [[Image:User Lagg OPTF2 icon.png|link=User talk:Lagg]] 05:46, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
