<templatestyles src="Template:TOC_right/styles.css" /><templatestyles src="Template:TOC limit/styles.css" />

There are two ways to look things up in Nordic Larp Wiki: by searching or by browsing.

  • If you know the name of an article for which you are looking, simply type it into Nordic Larp Wiki's search box.
  • If you would like to look around the encyclopedia to see what is on it, use Nordic Larp Wiki's Contents pages. Lists and indices are examples of contents for a published work, and Nordic Larp Wiki has many of each, including a complete alphabetical index and indices by category.
    Links to all of Nordic Larp Wiki's main contents pages are presented below, and they in turn link to the more specific pages.

Curated article collections

Overview articles

Overview articles summarize in prose a broad topic like biology, and also have illustrations and links to subtopics like cell biology, biographies like Carl Linnaeus, and other related articles like Human Genome Project.

Outline pages

Outline pages have trees of topics in an outline format, which in turn are linked to further outlines and articles providing more detail. Outlines show how important subtopics relate to each other based on how they are arranged in the tree, and they are useful as a more condensed, non-prose alternative to overview articles.

  • Portal:Contents/Outlines is a comprehensive list of "Outline of __" pages, organized by subject. It is itself an outline, that links (almost) exclusively to other outlines.
  • Outline of academic disciplines covers subjects studied in college or university, and provides links to prose overview articles and their corresponding outlines.
  • Outline of knowledge is the top-level outline, its subject being the broadest one of all. It is the ancestor of all other outlines, and they branch out from it, in successive levels.
