== Adding Information ==
Throughout the source code, you will fill out each section with the information you have of the cat. Most parts should be self-explanatory, fill out a brief description of the cat including which feeder they are from, how they act, what they look like, and their recorded sightings. However, there are some things that require a bit more understanding for first time editors. The sections will include formatting, filling out the cat infobox template, how to make a gallery, and any additional information you may need to know.

Towards the bottom of your source code should be a section for the cat's gallery. Instead of adding an image code for every single image you want to add, instead a gallery function will be used. This works similarly to the image format, however all you need to do is add the file name and caption for the image in-between <code><nowiki><gallery></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki></gallery></nowiki></code>.

Throughout the source code you may see many formatting options used. If you're interested in a full list of what is offered formatting-wise, you can check out this page [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting here] on the MediaWiki page. However, the most used and important options will be quickly shown here.
 
<code><nowiki>''This is used for italics,'' and '''this is used for bold words'''</nowiki></code>
 
<code><nowiki>*This makes a bullet point, useful for your sightings!</nowiki></code>
 
<code><nowiki>==This is used for a heading== and ===this is for a subheading.===</nowiki></code>
 
=== Finishing off the Page ===
Once you have finished writing out each section and uploading pictures for your page, we can do some final details before uploading.
