Also, where are folks getting the images for the abilities from? I'm happy to go and grab/upload/reference all the appropriate images, but don't want to step on any copyright toes.
I've got the same question for the image uploading. I would love to do that for some heroes too but I also don't want to mess something up.
As far as adding names and descriptions to talents and leaving the images for someone else that should be fine. Right now the wiki is missing a lot of info and the more that is added the better, even if it is piecemeal.

I started going through and making additional edits on pages from what I can find from adding information, to grammar/spell check and editing inaccurate/out-of-date information.

If you hang in there for a little while I'll write up how it all works. I'm learning this as I go too. Tomorrow I'll have clear instructions  . LP irc has been a great resource too.

There are some stuff I'd like to us to get to work on. For main page it would be nice to see which heroes are on the free rotation right?
Also a page that lists all the daily quests should be nice.
Speaking of which the show Daily Quest could probably use a page too with a list of all episodes with their topic and links to VODs. ( Day9 Daily for SC2 could be used as a template for how to do that type of page.)

There's a start for you.
Once I get a image done or get one made up for the main page, I can edit it and add it inside the "Portal" location for you.

When you click on one of the tabs to "select" the field, it greys out the specific one. This should be flipped, it should grey out all but said tab.
Additionally, we can also add a tab for the "Free Rotation" in this as well.

Agreed on the feature in the portal, wish I knew enough javascript to fix this though... I just don't. I think had this had ticked checkboxes next to the names it would have made a bit more sense but as is it doesn't quite feel the right way round.
A lot of tabs... but agreed, or maybe we could just add a graphic element to show the free rotation ones (like a border effect)
The other option we have for this page is that we divide it into the 4 classes and the 4 "universes" but a 16 cell table seems hard to make work from desktop to mobile seamlessly.

Adding a talent:
|tier-1-talent-1=SomeName //This is the name of your new talent that associate with a .png template
|tier-1-talent-1-content={{talent
|name=SomeName //The name to be displayed in the description dialog to the right
|description=This hero will make you attractive to girls irl! //The description of the talent
}}
1. After you add the talent, click the 'Preview' button located at the bottom of the screen.
2. The preview will show a "Template:Talent icon no link/SomeName" where you expect the picture of the talent to appear.
3. Open that link in a new tab and paste the text below in the editing area
[[File:SomeName.png|64px|link=]]
4. Make sure to put the name of the .png you uploaded for the ability you are adding. Then save the page.
5. Go back to the talent page and click preview again.

Updated free hero rotation page for March 31-April 7

This is a PM I sent to FT.aCt)Sony but is a good general answer for anyone interested.
Heroes:
Currently Salle and I are working on better templates for presenting talents and abilities on heroes. I am going hero by hero (very slowly lol) and adding this current design http://wiki.teamliquid.net/heroes/Hero_Wiki_Template to each hero. If you are interested in doing the same thing I'd start working alphabetically backwards through this list http://wiki.teamliquid.net/heroes/Portal:Heroes .
Maps:
The newest spider map has not been updated and needs to be filled in on the wiki
Teams:
If your interest is soley on the competitive scene right now, well I don't have much knowledge of it yet. You can grab team templates or update existing ones. I feel this is lower on the priority list as the game is still in beta.
Strategy/Guides:
This is an area that really should come after the basic game data has been added to the wiki. We are in beta still so there aren't enough active pro strategist that can put together guides at this time. Eventually this will become an extremely important section of LP and if you are inspired to add content here then feel free to do so.
The wiki is not always straightforward but jumping on the wiki IRC has been my friend. There is always someone there and everyone is super helpful. But as with any coding, experiment, learn, and enjoy the experience. Here is a link to the chat channel (no downloading of software or new account required!): http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=#liquipedia
I will answer any questions and if you need me send a PM or paste my TL name in your comment for fastest response times.

With the guide portal I think we should maybe look at doing it as just having external links is fine, but with the goal of moving them over to the wiki. The issue here is we can't copy paste everything, we can ask the author(s) if we can reuse their stuff (or if they want to add it themselves to the wiki) or if not we can also just copy the idea behind the guide and write it from the ground up (no copying content means no copyright infringement because ideas can't be copyrighted.)
Also obviously hero guides should be linked from the heroes own page too.

Updated the active team roster for Team No Mercy. Not really sure how to create a fresh page for the Taiwanese teams 'Fantasy" & 'INR'.
|
Updated the free hero rotation page for April 7th - 14th.
Edit: I also added talents to Valla's page, although I'm doing this at/while working so can't really add the images at the same time, I'll get round to them at some point unless someone else does, just easier for me to fill in text from here.

My schedule has been swamped past few days I haven't had any opportunity to update. Thanks for the update to the page for me.

You may link my YT vids + copy/paste the description if you like.
