This page serves as a reminder/introduction for contributors, with sections listing general editing tips, plus a full list of every custom template.

== General ==

=== Character Pages ===
If you're adding strategy information to a [[Characters|Character]] page, {{MiniIconbox|name=One Armed}} is a good point of reference. It has a table for synergies and makes liberal use of the [[Template:MiniIconbox|MiniIconbox]] template. Another good character page to reference is {{MiniIconbox|name=Mage}}, who has a section for their starting items, and {{MiniIconbox|name=Ranger}}, who has a Notes section for their starting weapons.

=== Mod Pages ===
If you want to show things like character and weapon stats, [[Mod:Extatonion]] and [[Mod:Isaac_Characters_Mod]] are excellent points of reference, as they make great use of the special templates available.

=== Uploads ===
You can upload many images at once with the [[Special:BatchUpload|Batch Uploader]]. View uploaded files via [[Special:ListFiles]].

==Templates==
Quick reference list of useful templates. See also: [[Special:UncategorizedTemplates]]. For cleanup, see [[Special:UnusedTemplates]].
