Creating a New Refining Recipe Page

Welcome, Drifter!
This guide will help you create pages for refining recipes — simple two-component processes that turn raw materials into refined crafting components.

Steps to Create a New Refining Recipe Page

1. Create the Page

Use the exact name of the recipe item as it appears in-game.
Example: Linen Bow String Recipe

2. Use the RefiningRecipe Template

On the new page, copy/paste the template below.
If you use the Create Center, this structure will be automatically preloaded:

{{RefiningRecipe
| name = 
| tooltip_image = 

| category = 
| profession = 
| level_requirement = 
| recipe_book =

| products = 

| component1_name = 
| component1_amount = 
| component1_categories = 

| component2_name = 
| component2_amount = 
| component2_categories = 
}}

3. Filling Out Details

name: Optional. Leave blank to use the page name.
tooltip_image: Upload and enter the image file name (omit File:).
category: The category is found under the name of the recipe when at a crafting station or on the recipe menu.

Example: Refine Wood and Plants

profession: The profession that uses the recipe (e.g., Prospector, Forester, Hunter).
level_requirement: Minimum profession level required to learn the recipe.
recipe_book: The recipe book that the recipe is learned from.

Use Page::Label format for pretty links.

Example: Recipe Silk Cloth::Recipe: Silk Cloth

products: Comma-separated list of all refined items produced. Each item will be automatically linked.

component1_name: Display name for the first component (e.g., Flax Fiber, Copper Ore, Topaz Gem, Flux).
component1_amount: Quantity required of the first component.
component1_categories: Comma-separated list of valid material categories for this component.

These will appear as links to Category: pages.

Example: Flax Fiber, Coarse Fiber

component2_name: Display name for the second component (e.g., Acid).
component2_amount: Quantity required of the second component.
component2_categories: Comma-separated list of valid material categories for this component.

These will appear as links to Category: pages.

Example: Weak Acid, Diluted Acid, Acid

4. Save the Page
