🛡️ Idle Server Defender Wiki — How to Use It

This wiki is here to help you with everything in Idle Server Defender — enemies, upgrades, strategies, systems and more. Here’s how you can use it and contribute!

---

🔎 1️⃣ Searching for Information
• Use the search box at the top to type what you’re looking for (e.g., “Virus Alpha”, “Firewalls”, “Boosts”).
• If the page exists, it will open.
• If not, you’ll see a message that the page doesn’t exist yet.

---

📄 2️⃣ Creating a New Page
• Search for a topic that doesn’t exist yet.
• You’ll see a red link saying “create this page” — click it.
• You’re taken to the editor — write your content and click Save page.

Example: To create a page about a new enemy type, search “Enemy: Virus Alpha”. If it’s not found, click the red link to make it.

✏️ 3️⃣ Editing Pages
• On any page, click Edit at the top.
• Add or fix information.
• Use Preview to check your changes before saving.
• Click Save page when done.

🔗 4️⃣ Linking Between Pages

[[Enemy: Virus Alpha]]
[[Upgrade: Firewall Boost]]
[[System: Prestige]]

---

🏷️ 5️⃣ Categories
• Add pages to a category to help organize content. Put these at the bottom of a page:
[[Category:Enemies]]
[[Category:Upgrades]] 
[[Category:Systems]]

• Each category auto‑generates an index of all pages in it.
