==What is the structure of Amaranth Legacy?==
'''This community's structure relies heavily on a concept of ''[[Amaranth Legacy:Scope|Scope]]s''''' &mdash; our term for separate, individual canons. Currently, we have '''[[:Category:META: Scopes|{{PAGESINCATEGORY:META: Scopes}}]]''' Scopes which are in the Amaranth Legacy community.

'''The owner of a scope has the final say''' on what is allowed in it. Most scopes are open to collaboration; however, you'll want to check the scope's respective page for information.

Generally, you'll find a hatnote like this on the top of a page to indicate which scope it is in:
{{Hatnote
|file=Glypht.png
|primary=Example scope text
|secondary=This is what you will see at the top of pages!
}}

First: Formatting articles is based on the markup language called [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Formatting|wikitext]], which is '''the same language that powers Wikipedia and Fandom'''. Another option is using [[mediawikiwiki:Help:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]], which is both simple and visual (it shows you what the article will look like as you are typing).

Second: Creating a page is as simple as searching the name of the page and clicking the link at the top.

Third: '''You are free to add as much or as little as you want.''' Don't be afraid to create small pages; we're not forcing you into a part-time job! We've had plenty of passing users who only wrote a couple of small articles, and that's something we encourage here. Try it out, and maybe read some other peoples' work while you visit.
