- The Page Guide will show you how the core of the pages should look like.
- This is just Work in Progress
Basic Article Setup
This is what a very simple page looks, without any sections besides for the See Also
[[Category:WikiHelp]] [[File:Image.png|thumb|Picture Description]] The '''Page Guide''' will show you how the core of the pages should look like. *You should always add a page to a category even if you have yet to fill it with useful information, this way it will be easy to find later on. =See Also= *[[Link|Related Info]]
- Categories in first line, so they're easy to find and manage. They always render on the bottom of page.
- Image Thumbnail, it is nice having one. The first thumbnail can be big, but rest should be small to avoid clutter.
- Introduction, try to describe the page in one sentence if you can, making the first mention of the page title BOLD.
- note: The introduction ends when you add the first section/header for more content.
- See Also, is for important related links. It serves its purpose best when using the least amount of links (besides for templates).
- note: Remember that the categories can serve as see also links, (why link to "spells" when it is in "spells" category?).
Setting up New Pages
- First read through the "Basic Article Setup"
- Then you can make your missing page
- If it is a individual page of many (such as spells, items or creature)
- copy the code layout from a reference page (can view it when you "edit" a page)
- paste it on the new page
- delete all the old info and replace it with the new.
- If it is a individual page of many (such as spells, items or creature)
