Of course it's okay to submit it in a text file!
You can
- email it to me (memories at theplenty dot net) and when I find the time, I will add it to the article(s) in question and add the formatting.
- or you can use the "talk" pages of the wiki (that way we know who submitted the information - I don't want to steal the credit for your hard work!)
Here's how the latter would work:
- you go to a page where the information would belong to. There's a search box on the left sidebar, write your article's subject (e.g. "Chalced") in it, click "go" and you should see the page. Or you can navigate to it using the links etc.
- Click on the red "discussion" button at the top of the page (between "page" and "edit"). (It might actually be blue if someone else has already used it.)
- Simply paste the text you had written on the big box that is on that page
- Click "save page"
That should be it. Someone will add it later to the actual article and format it.
If the page doesn't exist yet (for example if you search for "Thymara" you will see the warning "There is no page titled "Thymara". You can create this page."). You can click on that "create this page". You can simply dump the text there, no need to create a talk page. Someone will simply just edit it later.
