Difference between revisions of "WikiRaider:Article Layout"

Revision as of 15:42, 6 July 2007

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

Info Box or Image

• First you should start with an image for the article

(if one is available), else leave open. This image should have the ratio of 3:4 and a thumbnail of the size 150x113 should be used.

[[Image:nameofimage.jpg|thumb|150px|right|image text]]

• Sometimes the image is replaces by an info-box containing the image.

this is the case if the article is about a level, game, book, movies, comic...

See Samples

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

• general text

• next should come the content as given in the Samples

e.g. for baddies:

==Occurrence==

==Classification==

==Distinctiveness==

==Strategy==

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!

• [[Category:Name of the Category| ]] (For the article with the same name as the Category; e.g. the article Enemies within the Category: Enemies)
• [[Category:Name of the Category|!]] (For very important disambiguation articles within a category; e.g. the article Bosses within the Category: Enemies)
• [[Category:Name of the Category|#]] (For important disambiguation articles within a category; e.g. the articles Humans, Animals, Immortal Opponents, Ghosts... within the Category: Enemies)
• [[Category:Name of the Category|']] (For less disambiguation articles within a category; e.g. the articles Mercenaries, Fiama Nera, Scorpions... within the Category: Enemies)
• [[Category:Name of the Category|*]] (For "unimportant" disambiguation articles within a 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]]
