Gears of War Esports Wiki:Community

Welcome to esports.gamepedia!
esports.gamepedia is a family of competitive eSports wikis. This one (gears-esports) focuses on Gears of War. We cover players, teams, tournaments, and more! The fact that we are a wiki means that, even though we have a staff, our existence relies on community contributions. That's you! In these pages, we'll guide you through how to get started contributing to esports.gamepedia -- whether you want to help out from time to time, apply to join our staff, or even just learn more about what we cover and how to find it!

What We Do
We record, store, and curate information about tournaments, teams, and players. Here's what you can expect to find (and remember always to look for tabs at the tops of pages!):

Tournaments

 * While we don't record all of this information for every single tournament, you can expect to find it for premier tournaments and some major tournaments.
 * Overview - Tournament structure, Results, Location, Prize Pool, External Links to Content and Information, etc.

Players

 * The amount of information that we have available for players varies a lot, but we try to include the following:
 * Basic info - server, role, competitive team history, etc.
 * Biography - Detail of their personal life and Gears of War career.
 * Trivia - Various facts about the player that don't fit well into a bio.
 * Achievements - Top placings in tournaments.
 * External links - To interviews, AMAs, articles, profiles, etc.

Teams

 * Again, the amount of information varies, but we cover:
 * Basic info - region, sponsors, etc.
 * Timeline and roster history.
 * List of achievements.
