Free Land of Ysabol Help
Thanks for helping me with my page on The Free Land of Ysabol. I am completely new to both nationstates and Wiki, so have been fiddling with things all by my lonesome :) I have added Headers, and someone else (I don't know how to check whom) helped me make my page look much nicer. --ysabol 01:20, 11 Dec 2004 (GMT)

You're advising members to use your nice DIV sections, but we really want to encourage people to stick with the simplicity of wiki markup. For instance:
Culture
- versus
Culture
While the HTML method looks just a bit cleaner, it goes against good advice from the style guide:
- It's easier for you and whoever follows you if you don't try to get too fancy with your markup. Even with markup as suggested here, you shouldn't assume that any markup you put in is guaranteed to have a certain appearance when it is displayed.
- It is easier to display the NSwiki, easier to edit or add to its articles, if we don't make the markup any more complex than is necessary to display the information in a useful and comprehensible way. A useful encyclopedia is the first goal, but ease of editing and maintaining that encyclopedia is right behind it.
- Among other things, this means use HTML markup sparingly and only with good reason.
