This is a Draft
Each article guideline is currently being drafted. Your input is highly valuable to establish wiki standards and overall article styling. After finalization and community consensus, this guide will become protected and only editable by Administrators.

The Article Guide contains the base layouts for common articles on the wiki. These are meant to be used as a starting point for editing. While we aim for consistency and standardization throughout the wiki, unique sections are allowed to best display information on a specific subject.
For example: Krsysl Wordsmith has a unique Written Books section.

For general wiki style guidelines see the Style Guide.

Style and Content Guidelines[edit | edit source]

  • The top of a character's page contains key identifying information about the character such as their species, occupation, area of residence, and/or prominent groups they are a part of. This area should be brief and succinct, no more than 3-4 sentences.
    • A character's status, such as being alive or deceased, is not included as key identifying information. Living status should be stored in the infobox instead.
