Project Gorgon Wiki:Formatting

1,056 bytes added, 12:05, 26 October 2014
Expanded a little bit
It's the early days of the wiki during alpha. Much of this is still up for discussion ([[{{TALKPAGENAME}}]]).
 
<span style="color:#484">Please note as of writing some of the wiki content does not follow the guidelines. Whether it makes sense to rename articles and categories I don't know. The idea is to try to be consistent from here on.</span>
==General formatting==
Note: as with programming "styles"As some of these conventions can be considered preferences, everyone has a different opinion. Which which style we agree to is not very important, but I think consistency is good. If you don't like some of these conventions make suggestions [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}|in the talk page]].
===Capitalization===
'''Capitalize each word for only proper nouns''' as a general rule (a noun describing a unique entity). This includes: named entities in the game creatures (creaturesbosses), unique items, areaszones, dungeons, etc'''Headings''': use normal sentence case (eg.."How to learn"), except for proper nouns mentioned in the heading.  '''Categories''': likewise use capitalization only for proper nouns (eg. "Crystal CavernKur Mountains NPCs"), and not for common nouns (eg. Except for "Skill trainers"). ==Article names==Use the exact in"-game spelling for skills, locations, quests, items, "of" etc. (eg. "Word all proper nouns of Power"in-game unique entities).
Capitalize Use the first word only most everywhere else:* In categories, eg. same name as the in-game "Orc bosseslabel".* In headings, eg. "How to get there"with the exact same punctuation and capitalization, generally in singular.
==Categories==
This section gives an overview of Category names in general should use the common plural form, eg. "Zones", "Bosses". Anatomy-related categories:(Arthropod, Goblin, Orc, etc.) currently use the singular form. ===Category structure===(this may move to a new page if it becomes too complex)
: [[:Category:Zones]]
| - || Create an attractive "info card" for dungeons and sub-areas (do not use for zones yet, may use a different template).
|}
 
==Quotation==
For developer text, please use [[Template:Quote]] and specify the source URL. See [[Quote Template Demos]] for examples.
 
In-game text in general should be ''"quoted and italicized"''. Use the Quote template if it fits.
