- Absolutely! We have a TON of projects going on right now. I'll briefly mention a few below...
::For music fans: Alright you Yoko Shimomura fans, we need your help! Over is a list of all music pieces for each game. We could use some help going through and adding/checking the tracks.
::For the manga fans: We could really use some writers for the summary sections of each chapter. More information can be found .
But these are not the only projects we can use your help with! Other edits, even simple ones such as fixing grammar are welcomed and appreciated! There is always work to be done on both wikis, even if we're at a standstill for games. If you have any questions please ask other users or staff on how you can get involved. Thank you!
- It helps the wiki out, and you can also get credit for contributing to the projects! I got user of month for helping out on Project:Image Renovation by re-uploading a bunch of images and changing links.
You not only get honors, but you meet new people, collabing to make the wiki more of a wikipedia. Even you can use the info you and your teammates collect to beat your Kingdom Hearts game!

| - Sure, most people know how to make a page appear on the wiki; there's lots of ways that make it easy for you! This tutorial, however, is going to go over what you have to do to make sure the pages you create, apply to the wiki's rules and regulations. We'll also be going over some helpful tips to make your page creating experience both pleasant and stress-free. Read on to make sure you never break a create-a-page rule again!
If you wish to create a personal page in your userspace, there are very few rules that apply to its content. In a userspace page, you can do competitions, arenas and many other things! The userspace does not follow any sort of pattern, so speak to an admin and explain what your page is about if you are unsure about the space you want to create.
Things are a little different when you want to create a mainspace article, though! Before creating any article you need to be sure that your new page is about the Kingdom Hearts series and does not revolve around information that has been written before. If you are not 100% sure if your article obeys both of these simple rules, you can talk to an admin for advice. A list of Keyhole staff can be found and the list of KHWiki staff can be found . If you want to create a page on the Keyhole, you can offer a proposal .
If your idea is a-okay, create the page! This can be done in a variety of ways, depending on your skin and which wiki you are editing on. Let's take a look at these different methods below:
;Creating a page on the Keyhole using the Oasis skin
You can do so by going to Contribute on the right corner of your screen just below your username and your message box. Then click Add a Page.
x200px|center
You can now choose whether you want to edit in the standard layout or on a blank page. Blank page is the method we recommend.
;Creating a page on the Keyhole using the Monobook skin
You can find lots of options for creating pages .
;Creating a page on the KHWiki
You can find helpful instructions for creating pages .
Once you've found the appropriate method, it's time for a name! The naming of your page depends on what page you want to create. If you want to create an article, simply put the name of what you want your page to be about. For example, if you are creating a page about Aqua, name the page Aqua.
If you want to create a userspace page, name the page User:YOUR-USERNAME-HERE/YOUR-PAGE'S-NAME. For example, if I was creating a personal gallery for my favourite images, I could call my page User:RoadtoDawn/Gallery.
The edits you'll make to your page will depend on what your page is about. Userspace is open for your imagination, but articles follow similar formats. With an article, a good place to start is by following the template presented by an already existing page that matches the subject of your page. If you're creating a character article, check out an already existing character article for ideas on what type of information you can add!
Fill your page with information about its subject, and if you don't know what to put in one of the sections, you can always leave it blank and hope another editor will help your page grow.
Here are a few more tips to help you get by:
*You can also look to already existing pages to help you with coding you may be unfamiliar with.
*To add sections to your page, use the following format:
==HEADING-GOES-HERE==
Information goes here
*Categories are essential, as they help other readers find the page and keep the wiki nice and tidy. Category links go at the bottom of the page. You can find a list of categories here.
*To learn more about how to add categories and linking in general, check out TheFifteenthMember's super useful guide in Issue 1 of the Twilight Times!
And that's how you do it! Now you can create a page whenever necessary!

| - Let's start things off with a bit of random trivia: I, FinalRest, am completely obsessed with all things Alice in Wonderland. I've got books, clothes, posters, movies and everything in between. If it's related to Alice in Wonderland, I want it!
So, going back a few years, imagine how excited I was to find out that there was a video game that contained a playable version of my favourite story! You know what game I'm talking about, right? Yep, Kingdom Hearts!
center|x200px
Today I'm going to go back to the game that started it all to share with you my thoughts on how well the first Kingdom Hearts game translated Wonderland into gaming format. On the off chance that you haven't played Kingdom Hearts yet, I shall warn you that spoilers are abound.
center
;World Building
If you're anything like me, you spent many hours of Kingdom Hearts falling off platforms and trying to figure out how to get back to where you were before. The complicated world maps of the first game made it easy to get lost and even easier to miss certain treasures, which made some worlds *cough* Agrabah *cough* Hollow Bastion *cough* absolute hell for me to navigate through. Yet in Wonderland, this is what makes the world so much fun!
right|220px|center
The shrinking and growing aspect of the world was also great and allowed for inventive new ways to hide things or introduce enemies. Bribing flowers, jumping through puddles and rooms that flip in different directions were just a few of the highlights of this world. Return with High Jump or Glide and you had new hedges to climb, new hidden passages to open. This was the one world where I felt the twists and turns of the map fit like a glove. If you're gonna get lost, doesn't it make sense to do so amongst the colourful insanity of Wonderland?
;Battle Skills
If you weren't much of a magic user beforehand, you were sure to be one after Wonderland, thanks to the encouraged use of a variety of spells. I think Wonderland was a sly way to teach players about the full range of their battle arsenal, the lessons starting with the variety of elemental Heartless in the Bizarre Room, leading to using magic to unlock certain treasures and a tricky boss that forces you to strategize and get friendly with your combo attacks.
I learnt a lot in Wonderland and this world became a favourite for me to return to when in need of some levelling.

;Story
And by story, I mean lack of one. Sora and the gang are told to find some evidence to help clear Alice's name when she is accused of stealing the Queen of Hearts' heart, which sends you through the Lotus Forest to get searching. Out of all of the worlds in Kingdom Hearts, I was dismayed to discover that Wonderland was the one with least connection to its source material. The interaction with the characters from the book I love was minimal, and the Cheshire Cat was the only one that really got to shine.
In a similar vein, the player's journey in Wonderland felt disconnected from its surroundings. With the other worlds I felt like Sora had been plonked in the middle of all too familiar stories: Aladdin/Jack Skellington/Peter Pan needed help, and I was eager to jump at Jafar/Oogie Boogie/Captain Hook. Wonderland, however, lacked any of these familiar points, so I felt as though this wasn't really Alice in Wonderland, but really a random Kingdom Hearts exclusive world dressed in a Wonderland coat. What I would have done to follow Alice down the rabbit hole and help her overcome a Heartless Queen of Hearts! Instead, the focus was on the Heartless only, which was a disappointment.
;World Building
Although I did enjoy the nearly endless exploration of Wonderland, I wish they had made each area a little less static. Other worlds painted realistic worlds with their layouts: I walked the streets of Agrabah, swam the seas of Atlantica and swung through the trees of Deep Jungle. In Wonderland, sadly, things felt more like big themed rooms stuck together, as if the entire world was some sort of amusement park instead of an actual world. I really wish Wonderland had been a little less "large room decorated with different things" and more "small areas slotted together to build a cohesive domain".

;The Final Battle
Cards and a Tower, really?
center|x200px
You've got one of the most famously insane villains in all of literary history and you choose a tower as the big bad? Why? Imagine the Queen of Hearts summoning Card Guards and throwing Hedgehog bombs, all while swinging a big axe! Okay, that last idea might be a little too hardcore for a PG game, but you get the point.
I mean, her motive is right in her name! She's the Queen of Hearts, so make her try to steal Sora's heart using the Heartless! *Sighs* Such a disappointment...
center
Although I was happy to have a game include my all-time favourite story amongst its already awesome narrative, I'd be a liar if I said I was satisfied with the Wonderland that Kingdom Hearts presented. Unfortunately, I don't think Wonderland will get the chance to redeem itself with a new, exciting representation , although I think this world could turn into something special with the right ideas. But, at the end of the day, I really have little to complain about. The Wonderland world was, after all, the reason I was able to fall in love with the Kingdom Hearts series in the first place, and for that, this world shall remain one of my favourites.
This has been FinalRest, forcing you to read the ramblings of an Alice in Wonderland fangirl.

| - One critical part in every game is the music. Without it, a certain degree of emotion is lost.
Note from the user: This was really tough. Aside from being a fan of Yoko Shimomura's work, the series as a whole has some truly incredible pieces. Some of my personal favorites include...
right|x250px
1. "The Other Promise" – As if we weren't already a fan of Roxas, Yoko Shimomura gives us another reason to love this character. A remake of the original character theme, The Other Promise served as the battle theme for Roxas in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix. The piece expands upon Roxas' plight in a stronger, deeper fashion that perfectly illustrated just how troubling the Nobody's life was. Although very pleased with the in-game version, the orchestral remake from the Drammatica album was "the icing on the cake."center|The Other Promise
2. "Vector to the Heavens" – Across the board, the Kingdom Hearts series is known for having incredible final boss music. This piece continues that trend, easily describing the feelings encountered in the battle against Xion. What's more, having snip-its of "Dearly Beloved" and "Kairi" mixed in is just awesome.center
3. "Fate of the Unknown" – This was the piece that got everyone riled up for Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Normally described as epic, Fate of the Unknown brought us many different levels of emotion: we sat mouth wide open at the unfolding action; we cried during the misfortune of Ventus; we wanted to punch faces during the remaining seconds - truly incredible stuff. It is unfortunate that the complete piece never made it over to the actual game. We were, however, given a brief snippet during "Dismiss" and Terra’s theme.centerleft|x220px
4. "Missing You" – Appearing in both Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, this piece... did not play that often. Still, when it did, we certainly listened. Combined with Naminé in the first piano collections CD, this beautiful yet sad song still reminds us of time spent first playing the games.center
5. "Dearly Beloved" – We all knew this one was coming. If I did not include this piece somewhere on this list I would never hear the end of it. One of the most iconic pieces in the series, Dearly Beloved is for many fans pure nostalgia. No matter what variation you listen to, be it the piano solo from the original Kingdom Hearts or the 'choppy' version from Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, this piece manages to tug at the heart strings at some point.center
