== How to edit Sub Pages ==
What is all this sub page nonsense for?  Why do we use it?  The answer to both questions is to make editing faster and easier.  If you only are adding one small thing to a page each time it is much more manageable when all the information may no be available at the same time or tends to change.  So sub pages facilitates all that and more.  By breaking things up, we make it so just the desired information can be changed, and while changing that information all you can see is that information, so it is not confusing what you are changing.

Ok so lets look at what are the actual sub pages of a zone like Shard's Landing or page [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding]] actually are.
# [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding/zones]] - this lists the zones adjacent to Shard's Landing
# [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding/about]] - this lists some general information.  Basically everything you need to know in a sentence or two
# [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding/misc]] - This is usually random content, anything from progression info to a listing of Ground Spawns might be in here.  Use it for anything.
# [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding/quests]] - Links to all of the quests in the zone broken out by in game achievement.  Minor amount of wiki-fu needed to create list, but since its already all right there, not a problem.
# [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding/raids]] - this is similar to the quests sub page except it will list all the raids in the zone.
# [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding/named]] - in a perfect world this would be a list of all the named in the zone.  There are plans for it, but this is a time consuming task i have not tackled myself.

Now that is not what '''ALL''' of the sub pages are on [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding]], but they are the main sub pages which represent the content of the page, and that is what is important to specifically the page [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding]].  Each quest, mission, raid, named, etc would also be a sub-page of [[RoF/Zones/shardslanding]].  This is done intentionally for other reasons, not for confusion!  It should follow that any zone page should always have the following sub pages: zones, about, misc, quests, raids, and named.

Ok that is fine and dandy, but "How do I edit these pages?" you might ask.  The answer is simple and in the magic '''<nowiki>{{EQ/Zone}}</nowiki>''' template, I have created magic edit links for you which will link you to edit the sub-pages directly.  In general all you have to do is in the little blue box click the edit link in the upper right of the box title.  I have pointed them out here below.

Now wouldn't it be crazy magical if the whole site worked this way?  Well I have a secret to tell.  It does.  Now don't hate me for sharing secrets.  The whole site is based around this sub-page concept.  And you magically interact with the whole site this way.  So whether you are editing a Quest, Zone, NPC, or any content at all; it all works the same exact way.
