Help:Editing
Categories
At the bottom of any given document shound be links in the following format:
[[Category: Name]]
This will cause a special link to appear where it is placed, leading to a category. If the document's name begins with the word "The", it is preferable to do this:
[[Category: Name|<Document name - "the">]]
This will cause the document to be sorted ignoring the word "The", which is highly preferable. "The Explosive Mushroom" has a tag like this, as seen below:
[[Category: Name|Explosive Mushroom]]
Template Lists
A template is the list that appears over every member's article. It is formatted like so:
Edit this section to see the source by clicking the "Edit" text next to this section's title. This template can be placed anywhere in the document, but is preferable at the very top, above absolutely everything else.
If the badges used in the list are Competition Badges, X, Y, and Z represent numbers. They range from 1 to 5+. The <br /> tag gives a line break, and the actual bracket characters should be used in order for it to parse. For example, "5+ First Place Minigame Comp". Current badges are:
- First Place Sprite Comp
- Second Place Sprite Comp
- Top Five Sprite Comp
- First Place Drawing Comp
- Second Place Drawing Comp
- Top Five Drawing Comp
- <the above prefixes> Minigame Comp
There are others, but those must be edited in by someone more knowledgeable in this field.
Moderator, Admin, Site Staff, and Host badges should be listed as "____ Badge".
