Help:Editing Guide

Purpose

The purpose of this Editing Guide is to ensure that organizational and formatting is consistent across the wiki. By ensuring the experience is consistent for all users, it reduces complexity of understanding and also makes it easier to manage the overall wiki.

Page Heirarchy

All pages should try to be as high-level as makes practical sense with proper use of Headings. This results in good organization of content and reduces the amount of clicking a user will need to experience to obtain information.

For example, there are 4 Crests in the game. In some thought processes, someone would make a page per Crest. It makes much more sense to make an overall Crests page and then individualize specific Crest information with Headers.

Page Structure

All Header 2 sections should be double paragraphed apart.

Header 3-5 sections should only have single paragraph separation.

Non-Player Character (NPC) Page

Every NPC page should be organized in the following way:

• Image
• About
• Quests

Image

Every NPC should have their photo uploaded as a Thumb image. The file name of the image should be the NPC's name as spelled exactly in the game with same formatting. The Name, Description, and Caption of the image on this wiki should be the same exact name.

About

Should be a Header 2 Section.

Should have the following sentence: "(Name) is an NPC." Following that should be further explanation if they are a key NPC for the game, for example: "Wade is an NPC and the main quest giver for the Badge.".

The following should be in a bulleted list for that NPC:

• Location Name
