This is the '''policies'' of {{WikiTitle}} that all contributing members are expected to follow. Most of these policies work exactly like other wikis.
==Articles==
When making new articles, check the current [[Help:Boilerplate|boilerplates]] to see how to structure the actual article.
===Standard Article Structure===
If there are no boilerplates available for your article, use this simple structure:
* '''Brief introduction (*)'''. 1-2 lines of text, starting with the name of the article, in '''bold text'''. Just make an extremely brief explanation of the article.
* '''Game information (**)'''. Add any information available on the topic for the actual game. Can be quite extensive, use subsections.
* '''Background/Lore (**)'''. Add the "Universe" perspective. Can be quite extensive, use subsections.
* '''Older games'''. Add info referring to older games in the series.
* '''Development'''. Add any other information relating to the development of this topic.
* '''Trivia'''. If there are any links to funny/Easter egg information, add here.
* '''Media'''. Add images, a wiki gallery and links to other media.
* '''Related Links'''. Add any links that are closely related to the topic.
* '''References (*)'''. List the sources used in the creation of the article.
* '''(*)''' = Very important.
* '''(**)''' = At least one of these.
===Long Articles===
If an article starts to become too long (if you get a warning when trying to save), you should consider moving out sections to separate articles. If you do so, keep a small section with a brief description of the topic left, either as its own section or as part of another heading. You should also make sure to link back to the original article, as they most likely will be related.
