VRCWiki:How to Contribute/pl

Welcome to the VRChat Wiki, and we're glad you're interested in helping with our knowledge base.

Here, we cover things like:

• How do I use VRChat?
• What are the VRChat controls?
• How do I do X in VRChat?
• How do I get started creating worlds or avatars in VRChat?

Not everything is about worlds and avatars! We also allow community contributions in the Community Hub! There, you can find guides and information of all kinds. Head over to the Hub to get exploring! If you are a creator or interested in using VRChat's Creator Companion or SDK, you may also be interested in our Creator Documentation. That webpage covers the technical documentation for creating content in VRChat.

Contributing to the Wiki

Thank you for contributing!

Have a good day and we'll see you in VRChat!

Namespaces

The VRChat Wiki has namespaces that editors should become familiar with. Using these namespaces will be useful when creating, and searching for articles.

• VRChat - No Prefix - Official VRChat Wiki pages. Changes to VRChat articles made by you, and other editors will require moderation approval, and will appear after being reviewed. These articles primarily feature content created by VRChat itself, or be generalized topics. This also covers official applications and software, such as the VRChat Creator Companion, and the VRChat SDK.

• Community - Prefix: Community: - The community namespace. Pages here should be focused on community pages, hubs, and creations. This also covers community applications and software, such as Unity, Blender, and prefabs. Everyone can edit these pages directly. World pages, Avatar pages, Guides and Resources belong here.

• Guides - Prefix: Guides: - Articles in the guides namespace focus on how to accomplish a task, troubleshoot a problem, or describe advanced topics in complexity. Guides should remain proactive, and relevant to VRChat, Unity, and other similar software.

• Category - Prefix: Category: - These namespaces are for classifications and arranging ambiguations into organized lists, such as ''Category:Community Content''

• VRCWiki - Prefix: VRCWiki: - Namespace for pages in relation to the VRChat Wiki.

• User - Prefix: User: - The user namespace is the "home page" of an editor. You can edit your own user page, as long as it follows VRChat's guidelines. Adding to another editor's talk page is the equivalent of publicly messaging them.

• Special - Prefix: Special: - Namespace for special pages.

Creating a new page

To create a new page, ensure you are logged in and search for what you would like to have as a title of that page. Should a page with that title not exist yet, an option appears to create it.

Create the page "Your Search Query" on this wiki!

Clicking this red link will direct you to creating a new page.

Please note that to create pages in the Community namespace requires to have Community: as a prefix of the page title. For Example: Community:World Name. Read more about when to use which namespace above.

Uploading images

When uploading images to the VRChat Wiki, you can go to the Upload file page to do so. These images can be then embedded to any article that you edit. Please be sure to give a brief description or caption of the image in "Summary", but more importantly, please select the proper Licensing! While the supported file types include "png, gif, jpg, jpeg," and "webp", it is commonly best practice to upload still images using the .webp format, since it retains quality while being very optimized, compared to the .png format which takes lots of space. Keep in mind that the maximum file size to upload to the Wiki is only 20 megabytes per image, so please try converting your pictures to .webp format.

Personal images, racist images, pornographic images, and similar content are not permitted. Please note that files you upload may be modified or deleted—just like wiki pages—if other users consider them inappropriate. Additionally, users who place excessive strain on the system may have their upload privileges revoked.

Do not write articles about yourself or other users

VRChat Wiki is a knowledgebase to write about VRChat content such as features, prefabs, and worlds. This Wiki is not a place to post personal information about yourself, or other users. Feel free to create and add onto your personal User: page, or interact with another editor using the Talk/Discussion page on another User: page.

Discussion Page

A link to the Discussion Tab is present on the top left of every page.

Each page also has a discussion page, which is used to talk about contents of a page. Please make a new header for each subject with a title and with what you would like to discuss.
