'''2. Click "ADD A VIDEO". Paste the link and click "ADD".'''

'''5. First20s are listed in chronological order. So, add * NAME_OF_GAME at the end of the list of First20s. Make sure it goes before. Save the page.'''

Example: * There Is No Game

'''6. Right click on the First20 that is listed before the one you just added. Open it in another tab.'''

Example:


 * Say No! More (Open this one in another tab)


 * There Is No Game

It will look similar to this when you open it in a new tab:



Previous First20 (Luck Be A Landlord)  | Next First20

'''7. Add "NAME_OF_GAME - First20|" between the double square brackets that say "Next First20". Also, add the name of the game between the parentheses. (The changes are bolded)'''

Example:



Previous First20 (Luck Be A Landlord) |  Next First20 (There Is No Game''')

'''8. After doing the step above, copy everything on that page. Save the page.'''


 * If you copy it, it saves time so that you don't have to re-type everything.

'''9. Go back to the tab where you had the list of First20s. Right click on the First20 that you added and open it in another tab. Paste what you just copied onto that page.'''

Example:


 * Say No! More


 * There Is No Game (Open this one in another tab)

'''10. Next, we are going to change the parts that are bolded below so that it matches to the game we are making the First20 for. The information you copied was for the previous First20.'''

Example:



Previous First20 (Luck Be A Landlord) | Next First20 (There Is No Game )

 Say No! More  is the 373rd episode of  First20  done by  Stephen, but it's the 78th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the [ https://www.twitch.tv/videos/994758844  VOD]. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

11. Type the name of the game that was played for this First20 after "FIRST20 - ".


 * If the name has a colon symbol ":" in the title like Lost Words: Beyond the Page, then change it to a dash "-" (This only applies for this step)
 * Example: File:FIRST20 - Lost Words- Beyond the Page

Example:



Previous First20 (Luck Be A Landlord)  | Next First20 (There Is No Game)

 Say No! More   is the 373rd episode of  First20  done by  Stephen, but it's the 78th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the VOD. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

'''12. Type in the date that the First20 was. (It's located next to the number of views on the video on YouTube)'''

Example:



Previous First20 (Luck Be A Landlord)  | Next First20 (There Is No Game)

14. Link this First20 page to the previous First20 page.


 * In this case, the previous First20 was for the game called Say No! More. So, we change the name of the game listed before " - FIrst20" and the name of the game in the parentheses

Example:



Previous First20 (Say No! More) | Next First20 (There Is No Game)

 Say No! More   is the 373rd episode of  First20  done by  Stephen, but it's the 78th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the VOD. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

'''15. If the First20 you are making a page for is the most recent one, there will be next First20 to link to yet. So, you can delete the everything in between the brackets for Next First20 except for "Next First20 ".'''

Example:



Previous First20 (Say No! More) | Next First20

 Say No! More   is the 373rd episode of  First20  done by  Stephen, but it's the 78th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the VOD. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

Otherwise, just replace "NAME_OF_GAME" with the name of the game for the next First20 in order to link the page to the next First20.

Example:



Previous First20 (Say No! More)  | Next First20 (NAME_OF_GAME)

 Say No! More   is the 373rd episode of  First20  done by  Stephen, but it's the 78th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the VOD. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

16. Replace the name of the game between the pair of 3 quotation marks to name of the game in the First20 you are working on.

Example:

 There is No Game   is the 373rd episode of  First20  done by  Stephen, but it's the 78th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the VOD. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

17. Change the episode count by 1.


 * This number keeps track of the total number of First20s made. So, we just increase it by 1 every time a new FIrst20 is released.

Example:



Previous First20 (Say No! More)  | Next First20

There is No Game  is the 374th episode of  First20  done by  Stephen, but it's the 78th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the VOD. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

18. (Only do this step if in the First20, Stephen plays the game with other people) Add the person's name in between double brackets.

19. Check on Twitch to see if Stephen recorded this First20 on Twitch.


 * You can check the "Chapters" list on the individual First20 streams
 * The games in the Chapters list are listed in chronological order
 * If he did stream it, then change the bolded number to whatever order it was streamed on Twitch
 * Stephen doesn't always release the First20s on YouTube based on the order he streamed them on Twitch. So, you might have to look at Chapter lists and compare it to the order of some other games on their First20 pages

Example:



Previous First20 (Say No! More) | Next First20

There is No Game is the 374th episode of First20 done by Stephen, but it's the 75th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the VOD. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

 There is No Game   is the 374th episode of  First20  done by  Stephen. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

'''20. Find the First20 stream where Stephen played the game you are making the First20 wiki page for. Copy the link.'''


 * The link should be the same length as the bolded link below
 * Sometimes the link will have some extra stuff at the end after the numbers, you can just delete those.

Example:



Previous First20 (Say No! More) | Next First20

There is No Game is the 374th episode of First20 done by Stephen, but it's the 75th to have been live streamed on his Twitch Channel. Here's a link to the [ https://www.twitch.tv/videos/994758844  VOD]. He received a copy of the game directly from the developers.

Example:
