1. How do I join?

Welcome to the ConWorkShop Planet project (also called CWSPlanet or CWSP)! This is a collaborative wiki we are creating where we each have a country, or countries on the planet where the speakers of our conlangs live. Join in for diplomacy, war, trade, map-making, and general conworlding fun. Our world is known as Sahar.

The map for the planet is now complete (accessible from Community > Projects > CWSP Map (latest)). We also have an awesome interactive SVG map you can use to find out stuff about the countries of Sahar.

We have a new wiki here!

Here's a handy infographic outlining the steps to joining this awesome project:

Research Sahar
Take a look at the world map and familiarise yourself with it. (the latest version can be found under Community -> Projects -> CWSP Map (latest)).

Decide where you want to put your country. Remember to take into account things like where other countries are, the geography, climates, etc. You can use the interactive SVG map to research your potential neighbours to see if your desired area is the right fit.

Make an application
Once you're ready, you can make an application. You can do this in this thread. When drawing your map request, please refer to this guide or we may ask you to redraw your request.

Register your country on PWS
Navigate to PlanetWorkShop so that you can add your country.

Join the clan and post your final map requests
Once your application has been accepted and you're registered on PWS, please request to join this clan. Let us know you've requested so that we can accept for you.

You'll need to post your finalised map claim in both the claims thread, and the SVG map thread. You must do this on both or your country could be marked as inactive if you don't request addition to the SVG map. Please follow the instructions on the threads carefully.

Create a thread in the 'Countries' board
You will also need to create a country thread in the Countries board. This kind of acts as an embassy for your country where you're able to make announcements about your country, show off things you've made for it, or where others may request deals etc with you.

Join the CWSP Wiki
Visit the CWSP wiki and create an account using the same username you use on CWS. There is a thread where you're able to request access once your account is created (this is to prevent spam and non-CWSP members using the wiki).

Once approved, create your country page. There are text fields down the side of the page (if you scroll down) that help you create new countries.

Add SVG country data
Once we've added it to the SVG map's data (we'll let you know), you can edit the country data for your country. You can also add basic information to your summary page, and various country facts.
