Making this somewhat lengthy.

For making your character's page: in the top right corner of the wiki under your username you should see something that says contribute. Click that then a drop box should appear listing all available options. You'll want to click "Add a Page" and from there you'll want to give it the name of your character. Select one of the options for the layout then click add page in the bottom right corner on that screen.

From there on is where you describe your character, follow this base for the prefered format. I would also suggest using the FanChar box template for any basic information such as the age, height, and weight (Templates are on the right side of the edit page, click on "Add other templates" and it should be under the most frequently used section on the left). Edit that to your liking, and also remember to add the fan made character category (categories are right about templates), upon typing it it should appear on a drop down menu, just select it from there.

Once you've made a few edits you'll want to hit publish on the top right of the edit page and you've successfully created a page on the wiki. You can always edit your page afterwards by clicking the edit button by the page's name.

And if you're an RP person, once you feel your character is well rounded in the RWBY-verse, you can add the Pending Character category, a member of staff will review it, and once they give you a passing notice that character can be used in any RP you want.
