The Creator Wiki holds Enviglo's official guides, like this one, and pages written by the community. Anyone signed in can write a new page or improve a community page. Every save is kept, so nothing is ever lost.

Enviglo staff only
Only Enviglo staff can change a page's address once it's been created, lock or unlock a page, or delete one.
Official guides are written by the Enviglo team. If one is wrong or out of date, select Let us know at the bottom of it to tell the team. For other locked pages, suggest changes on the forum. See Use the forum.
Write a new page
Search the wiki first, so you don't write a page that already exists. Keep a page accurate and general: a tutorial for one project fits better on the forum.
On the Creator Wiki home, select New page. You'll be asked to sign in if you haven't.
Enter a Title of 3 to 120 characters.
Check the Address. It fills in from the title, and becomes the end of the page's link. It must be 3 to 48 characters: lowercase letters, numbers and single hyphens. Choose it carefully, because only staff can change it later.
Choose a Section: pick one that exists, or type a new one.
Add a Summary if you like: one line, up to 200 characters, shown under the title on the wiki home.
Write the Page in Markdown. It needs at least a couple of sentences, and can be up to 100,000 characters.
Under What did you change?, add a short note if you like. For a new page it's "Created the page" unless you write something else.
Select Create page.
On a wide screen, a preview sits beside the editor. On a smaller screen, switch between Write and Preview.
On the wiki home, sections with official guides come first, and a community page in one of those sections is listed after its guides.
Edit a page
Open the page and select Edit, or Improve this page at the bottom.
Make your changes.
Under What did you change?, say what you did, for example "Fixed the DataStore example". The note shows in the page's history and in Recent edits on the wiki home.
Select Save changes.
Your change is saved as a new version. If you save without changing anything, you'll see "Nothing changed, so there was nothing to save."
Format your page
Headings build the page menu. Start sections with ## and use ### under them. They make up the On this page menu beside the page on wide screens. The title is already shown at the top, so don't use a single #.
Code blocks are highlighted. Put code between lines of three backticks, with the language after the first set. Write lua or luau for Luau. Common languages such as JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, C#, JSON and SQL work too. Leave the language off and Enviglo guesses.
Highlighting shows once the page is saved. The preview doesn't colour code.
Links to pages on Enviglo open in the same tab. Links to other sites open in a new one.
Images in Markdown image syntax show on the page.
Mentions, the at sign followed by a username, link to that person's profile. On the wiki they don't notify anyone.
Tables, lists and bold text work as usual. Raw HTML doesn't show.
A Luau code block is written like this:
```lua
local DataStoreService = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local store = DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerData")
```
Page history
Select History on any page to see Page history: every saved version, newest first. Each one shows who saved it, when, their note, and how many characters it added or removed. The newest is marked Current.
Open a version to see its Changes from the version before, with added and removed lines marked, next to This version as it looked.
Restore an older version
In Page history, select Restore next to the version you want. Or open the version and select Restore this version.
Confirm with Restore.
The old version becomes the current page, with the note "Restored the version from" and its date. The version you replaced stays in the history, so you can always go back. You can't restore a version of a locked page or an official guide unless you're Enviglo staff.
Report a page
If a community page breaks the rules, select Report on it, choose what's wrong and select Send report. Reports go to the Enviglo team.
Limits
You can make 30 wiki changes an hour, counting new pages, saved edits and restores. Past that, you'll see a message saying how many minutes to wait.
Troubleshooting
There's no Edit button. You're not signed in, or the page is locked or an official guide.
The Address box is greyed out. Only Enviglo staff can change an existing page's address.
"Another page uses that address. Pick a different one." Change the address.
"That name is reserved." Some addresses are kept for Enviglo's own pages. Choose another.
"Write at least a couple of sentences." The page needs at least 20 characters.
"Pick or type a section." Every page needs a section.
