Well if you come to our IRC linked on the main page of LP as well as in my article we'll be happy to help you. And if you search around you can find templates for pretty much everything you want. It doesn't take long before the code becomes second nature as its pretty intuitive.
This article is all part of hot bid's master plan, so he can rest on his millions while most of the site is run by volunteers who only want e-recognition and virtual coins. Not that I can blame him, but I'm always fascinated by how many are willing to work for free while others profit greatly from their work, just in the name of e-sports. TL isn't the only company to do that as Dreamhack runs entirely off volunteers from what I've read. It's a genius plan really and if companies in the non esports world could profit off a legion of volunteers, they would do the same.

Only 0.03% of the people using Liquipedia contribute... There's no one about to make millions off of Liquipedia.

You nailed it. Such a well kept secret. And you managed to dismantle it with such ease & grace!

Not just talking about liquipedia. Talking about most of the things on the site like translations, articles etc. Isn't it pretty well known TL is run mostly by volunteers? Isn't it a badge of honour TL always likes to talk about saying they got tons of volunteers that help make the site what it is? Pretty sure I've read that in interviews from TL staff before.

its not to hard, if you cant code (I cant and had the same reason not to do anything as you) just use preview before you post and if its result look at how others are made mostly its just either copy something or change a number really
