Under the "Start a wikia" button on the top right of your screen is a button that says "Contribute." If you want to make an OC page, select "add a page.  A box will pop up.  Fill in the name of your OC, and it will send you to the editor of a (likely uncreated) page of the same name.  You probably want to start out by getting an infobox for your OC, which you can get a by clicking Insert > Infobox and selecting the one that you want.  That, or you can get one by going from Insert > Template.  Note that there are a lot of infoboxes, so you might want to start with one that just has the basics, like the "Infobox student" template, or if you have a lot planned already, you can go with the "Student" template instead.

To edit your infobox, click it once and select the box thing with the name of the chosen infobox. From there it's pretty self explanatory, but how easy/hard it is to fill it out depends on which infobox you chose. In the field below "image" you can type the name of the picture of the student (ex: portrait9) that you want to display with the infobox. Make sure you've already uploaded the picture to this wiki. Once you have done so, you can select "apply changes" to see if the image is broken/too small/too large. (Side note:  You can use Kisekae to design your character.  The link provided is a SFW version, by the way.  If you want an official looking portrait for your character you can ask DarkUchihaPrincess or me to make one based on a design you already have for your character.)

Next is filling in your character's information in the infobox. If you already have the character's backstory/personality/information, I recommend that you take the Yandere Simulator Mary Sue Litmus Test to see whether they are balanced or not. Keep in mind that this wikia tries its best to stay in canon, so your OC can't be Yandere-chan's sister or anything of the sort.

Once you are done with the infobox portion, you can move on to the actual writing part. You don't have to do this as soon as you create the page. You can leave it as a WIP for a few days if you want, but personally, I'd do it as soon as possible. Some people like to take their time, though, and I totally get that.

To begin, I'd write "(name) is a fanmade character by (your username). They attend Akademi High School in Classroom (class number here)." If the OC doesn't attend Akademi, just replace that sentence with something that tells their role in  your fanon/ the in-game universe/AU, like "Johnny Johnson is the abusive father of Johnny Johnson Jr." When you're done with that, select the little dropdown box next to the B and select "Heading" to make a heading. I'd begin with "Appearance," but everyone does things differently. Under "Appearance" you can describe their appearance, under "Background" you can describe their background, so on and so forth. For quotes use the "Userquote" template.

If you need an example of what to do, look at the pages of Chrys Lawliet's page, Sateriasis Venom's Page, or the page of any other filled in/developed character. And yes, I'm aware that both examples belong to LenLawliet, and although he's not my favorite person on this planet, he makes some damn good OCs.

To keep this thing from becoming longer than it already is, I'll just toss any tips/warnings I have here. When using Kisekae, please try not to make recolors of default models as it's unoriginal and looks lazy. Insert categories at the bottom of the page, or enter the editor and go to "The three horizontal lines > Categories." Avoid making your OC anything other than a human/succubus/vampire/ghost, since the species I named are hinted/confirmed to exist. Shapeshifters are also a no-no, because although it may be DLC content in the final game, it's still really overpowered. Read the rules, too. Feel free to ask me if you need help.
