General rules
- Use present tense as much as reasonable
- Use username or real name relevant to type of page
- Use categories!
- Bold the title of the page in the first sentence.
Universal Templates
These templates can be used on any page, where applicable
Infobox
Infobox's are wonderful tools! We have lots of premade infobox templates, but if there isn't one for the page you are making, you can use just a basic infobox and customize to your needs. If we are going to have many pages with similar infobox's, it would be good to make a new sub template specifically for those pages, rather than using the generic one.
WIP
If a page is not finished or clearly just needs work done, add this template. Put it at the top of the page, so it is easy to remove later. It adds the page to Category:Work In Progress so we can easily see what pages still need work. Template is simply {{WIP}}
See also
This template is for placing immediately after section headers, when another page has a more complete version of that section. This is not for the See Also section often at the bottom of pages. Syntax is {{See also|Name of Page to See Also}}
Minecraft Related
- Use the ingame names (at the time of build/event), as reasonable, when referencing members.
Build pages
- Use the Template:Infobox build template.
- Use the categories. Named following these rules. "Builds by Member" and "Builds on Wellstowne World"
- Add 'see also' sections, especially include link to "List of Builds on Wellstowne World" and where applicable, "List of Builds by Member" or relevant section of member page.
- Coordinates should be only x and z, except where y coordinate is applicable, using (x, z) style.
- Type should usually be from the following categories: House, Shop, Farm, Mob Grinder, Decorative Build, Vehicle
- Include an image of the build in the info box. That image should not be included in any galleries.
- Galleries can include captions, but only use if it provides relevant information.
Build Pages Templates
Infobox build
This is a specific template for minecraft build pages. See Not a Lie Bakery for an example of use.
{{Infobox build
|title = Page Title
|image = img.png
|caption = caption
|builtby = [[member]]
|world = [[Wellstowne XXX]]
|type = Type
|status = Status
|coords = (X, Z)
}}
Note that image links in this are simply the name of the file. Include relevant page links, ie member and world, and maybe items in the caption.
Builder Wanted
This is a maintenance template, simply include {{Builder Wanted}} to the top of a build page if the builder of that build is unknown. A notice will be posted at the top of the page, and the page will be added to Category:Builder Unknown.
