| − | === Creating a new page ===
| |
| − | There are two ways to create a new entry in the wiki:
| |
| − | # Reference the new page that you would like to make on a page somewhere ( <nowiki>[[Your Page Name Here]]</nowiki> ), and then click the red link to be taken to the "missing page" screen. You can then click "create a new page" and start filling it out. | |
| − | # In the search box on the top right, type in the name of the page you would like to make, and then search. You will be taken to a similar page as above, prompting you to create the missing page.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Writing etiquette ===
| |
| − | * Write from a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view neutral point of view], avoid personal opinions and overly subjective explanations.
| |
| − | * Particularly when it comes to the inner workings of a game (e.g. scoring, rank system etc.), please confirm and double-check your statements, ideally backing them up with hard evidence. If you can't confirm something right away but have very good reasons to believe that it's true, please attach the tag <code><nowiki>{{unconfirmed}}</nowiki></code> to the statement in question. This way, other people can work on this part and eventually confirm it.

| − | == ( Insert Game Title Here ) ==
| |
| − | '''(Template Page)''' is a page that is dedicated to be easily copied and modified, in order to massively simplify the process of creating new '''game pages'''. The introduction to the player should be a simple, concise summary of the game, including information like release date, ports, and making sure to note who the developer is using [] brackets.
| |
| − | | |
| − | It's also important to note when games might contain specific cultural relevance, such as innovating on a new style of game, or excellent/poor critical reception.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The infobox (on the top right on this page) should contain all basic information about the game such as developer, people involved, release date etc. The image included should be the title screen of the game. You can change the color of the infobox and add a variety of other parameters. For this, please check the template page for the infoxbox: [[Template:GameInfobox]]

| − | == Gameplay Overview ==
| |
| − | The '''gameplay overview''' section starts out with the '''controls''' of the game, including all of the buttons used and what they're used for. ''It's recommended to keep the control layout simple and easy to understand.'' Feel free to note the directions that the player can move as well, if you wish or if it's notable (horizontal only, 4 way, 8 way, analog, etc). Advanced and strategic ways of manipulating the controls can be included in a following Strategy section, or wherever that information might be the most relevant.
