How to add games
First, you'll need to spend thirty seconds and create an account / log in.
Then, making a new game page is easy: just enter the name of the game into the search box to the left. It won't find the page, of course, but it will give you the option of creating it. Make the page, write up your game, and then at the end be sure to add a category tag of the format "[[Category: Category Name]]", i.e. "[[Category: Outdoor Games]]".
Use this handy template as a guide for making your game page.
Once your page is created and has a category tag, come back to this page, click the "edit" link to the right of the category, and click the save page button at the bottom. That's it, your new game will then be listed here under the appropriate category.
A good way to get an idea of how to write wiki pages is always to just look at one of the current pages, and click on the "edit" link at the top. If you want to know more, check out Wikipedia's help page.
If you're having trouble making something work here on the Rulebook, email us and we'll try to help.
