==Oathbringer Is Out + Spoilers==
'''Feruchemy''' is one of the three prime manifestations of [[Investiture]] on [[Scadrial]]. The natives of that world consider it one of the three [[Metallic Arts]].
 
=== Lore & Background ===
Feruchemy came into existence contemporaneously with the other Metallic Arts, [[Allomancy]] and [[Hemalurgy]], as a result of the interactions between the [[Shard]]s, [[Preservation]] and [[Ruin]], and the planet [[Scadrial]] itself. Unlike Allomancy and Hemalurgy however, which are each closely attuned with one of the Shards, Feruchemy is equally attuned to both and represents the balance between them. Feruchemy was also the only art in widespread use prior to the [[Ascension of the Lord Ruler]]. The ability to use Feruchemy emerged among the [[Terris]] people but due to their insular nature and reluctance to interbreed never spread to the general population of [[Classical Scadrial]]. During this time there was a holy order of Feruchemist scholars known as the [[Worldbringers]], who served as teachers bearers of knowledge throughout the world.} Not every Feruchemist was a member however, with many having much more mundane vocations, such as being herders or mountain guides.

== ToWant Doto Help? ==
Would you like to help the Coppermind to get better? There's plenty of room for improvement, but where to start?
 
==== Book Pages ====
 
Many pages on book pages themselves could use serious expansion. The Mistborn trilogy's book articles are serious stubs, as well as [[Warbreaker]] and [[Elantris (book)|Elantris]]. When editing book pages, a couple sections you may want to consider:
 
*Main characters
*Plot Summary
*Magic
 
Avoid pure lists, give each of these sections some meat! :)
 
On these articles, it'd also be appropriate to include some information about Brandon's process of writing the books (similar to many Wikipedia articles on movies having a "Production" section), if you know some fun factoids.
 
==== Main Characters ====
 
Of character articles, there are some pretty serious holes. Think about expanding main characters, as those should probably be the most extensive of all character articles. The Stormlight Archive main characters are okay, but think about editing [[Vivenna]] or [[Sarene]]. In addition, Mistborn characters like [[Kelsier]], [[Vin]], [[Elend Venture|Elend]], and [[Sazed]] could use some section breaks for clarity.
 
==== References ====
 
If you are editing for the first time, don't worry too much about adding citations for every fact--content always comes first. That said, if you're one of those people who stares at Arcanum a lot, you might want to help adding citations to the many [[:category: articles in need of citations|articles in need of citations]].
 
==== General Tasks ====
 
Check out [[:category: Articles in need of attention|articles requiring urgent attention]], articles that should be a top priority in expanding or fixing.
 
There are a great deal of wanted pages--that is, those wiki links that are in red instead of blue, which represent articles that don't exist. Check out the page of [[special: WantedPages|all wanted articles]].
 
And, if you want to enter the realm of torment, you could always expand one of many, many [[:category: stubs|stubs]].
 
=== I need some help! ===
 
Not to fear! We have some guides to help you through the editing process. Our [[Help:Getting Started|New Editor's Guide]] has information on editing for people of any experience level. We also have more in-depth pages explaining [[Coppermind:Style|style]], [[Help:Article structure|article structure]], [[Help:Discussion|discussion]], and [[Help:Speculation|speculation]].
