Revision as of 11:36, 22 December 2012

Here you can see how the Article Layout in WikiRaider should be:


==

Infobox or Image

  • An article should begin with an Infobox or at least an Image if available.

- Templates for infoboxes can be found here: Samples

- Images should use the following code, where File.png is replaced by the file name and alt text is replaced by the title of the article:
[[File:File.png|225px|thumb|right|alt text]]
If you don't have an image, but it is possible to get one (e.g. the item is not from a novel), add:
{{image}}


Introduction Line

  • Then you should write an Introduction Line containing the keyword (name of the article) in bold.

Example: '''Bartoli's Hideout''' is the third Level in [[Tomb Raider II]].

Creating a Relation to Other Articles

  • The next few sentences should put the article in relation to others.

Example: The '''Pharos Knot''' is needed to gain access to [[Pharos, Temple of Isis]] in [[The Last Revelation]]. It is found in the [[Hall of Demetrius]].
In this example the item Pharos Knot is set in relation to two levels (where it is found and used) and the game it is in.

Main Content

  • IF the article is a disambiguation page, begin with a list of all articles it stands for and then add the notice:
{{Disambig}}
Example:
There are two types of Roman statues, one is wearing bronze armour, the other is wearing silver armour:
* [[Bronze Statue]] (Trajan's Markets)
* [[Silver Statue]] (The Colosseum)
{{disambig}}

  • IF the article could be mistaken for a disambiguation page or another article, add the remark template and fill it out:
Example: Insert non-formatted text here
  • general text


  • next should come the content as given in the Samples
Example: (for baddies)
==Occurrence==
==Classification==
==Distinctiveness==
==Strategy==

References

  • IF the article uses citations, you should add the following to the end of the article, just before the categories list:
{{ref}}

Categories

  • finish the content by giving the Categories for the article.
[[Category:Name of the Category]]
A list of all Categories can be found here: Special:Categories

Category Types

Sometimes an article is not just a simple article in a category (most commonly these are disambiguation pages! To learn how to sort them, please refer to the following manual: Help:Category.

Inter Wiki Language Links

  • last comes the inter-wiki link to the same article in German (leave open if you don't know the title), fill in when it is obviously the same (e.g. names of persons)
[[de:Article Name in German]]
