Welcome prospective PinWiki contributor!

In addition to the guidelines noted in the "forums", here are a few "Quick Start" guidelines to consider when providing content.

  1. There is a "How to..." topic In the "Pinball beginners start here" section on the left side of the main page. This information is useful irrespective of the game manufacturer.
  2. There is also a "General for all Games" section on the left side of the main page. Common aspects of all games (like the switch matrix and the lamp matrix) are housed in this section.

Please make every effort to leverage these general resources when authoring. Ideally, the general sections provide building blocks for your articles. You can then provide details specific to the game system you are documenting.

Thank you for making PinWiki an incredible resource!
