Formatting (TRwiki)

This guide describes the basic rules of how articles should be formatted on TRwiki.

Standardized formatting makes many tasks on a wiki easier, especially long lists of repetitive documentation.

Please note that these guides are meant to be a help, and shall be seen as a recommendation rather than stringent law restricting creativity. If in any case the standardized formatting doesn't fit the purpose, you are free to modify it. Also, if you think that a formatting is generally lacking in any respect, question it! You are always invited and encouraged to suggest improvements on the respective talk page.

Article Names
Definition article names shall generally be singular and use the same spelling, capitalization and punctuation as the game (or, as long as the game isn't released yet: the official website and other official media).

Articles about subjects that are proper nouns should be capitalized (e.g. Eloh), but all other articles should generally be lowercase (e.g. fansite list). Note that MediaWiki software automatically capitalizes the very first letter of each article name, but links will still work fine if the first letter of the link to that article is lowercase, e.g. fansite list will be the same as Fansite list.

Non-definition articles, such as lists, guides, overviews shall generally be named  , for example fansite list.

Redirects
Redirects are a method of silently diverting the reader from one article name to another, and is very useful for article names that are commonly misspelled or abbreviated.

To create a redirect, put the following code into the article that you want to use as a redirect to a target article:
 * 1) REDIRECT 

Redirects are generally accepted and even encouraged for:
 * Lower case names to capitalised names, or vice versa
 * Plural terms to singular terms
 * Names without punctuation to names with punctuation
 * Short forms of names to the complete name
 * Abbreviations or initialisms
 * Extremely common misspellings
 * Common spelling variants (for example British English to American English)
