Castle Age Wiki Projects/Official Wiki To Do List

IF YOU ARE READING THIS, DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO THIS YET, CHANGES STILL NEED TO BE MADE!

Why Does This Page Exist?
A Wiki is a large undertaking. It requires a lot of maintenance (especially since Castle Age makes a large update every week or so), and can't be taken care of by just the admins. It turns out that a lot of us have "jobs" and "lives", and can't keep maintaining a site like the Castle Age Wiki using just our free time.

But the glory of wiki's is that no one person has to take care of everything. Since everyone can edit the wiki, everyone can help maintain the wiki. The key is that no single person has to do all that much. Even if all you have time for is to go fix the typos on the pages, this would be a great help to the wiki. If everyone does a little bit, then the entire wiki can be well maintained without anyone having to do a lot of work.

The key to having a lot of people working for a common goal is clear communication. We'll have certain formatting guidelines that people would have to follow to make things go smoothly. It'll affect things like naming schemes of the articles and the pictures. Or the layout for certain pages (like how the Hero pages look different than the Monster pages. If people follow these basic guidelines, there is no reason why we can't all have a wiki we can be proud of.

Names
Articles and pictures

All article names and picture names should use the same names as the corresponding element the game. All words in the article name should have the first letter of each word in the article's title capitalized, with two exceptions. The first letter in the worlds "a", "an", "the", or "of" should be in lower case. If there is a monster and a hero with the same name, the word "hero" should appear at the end of the hero article's page, in parenthesis. If there is punctuation in the name of something, include this as well.

Examples:

Mephistopheles Mephistopheles (hero) Azriel, the Angel of Wrath Demi-Quests

Categories
Be sure to remember to add categories to pages if you see that they do not already have a category. Add a category by clicking the "add category" button found below the editor when editing a page. Hero pages should be in the "Heroes" category. Monsters should be added to the "Monsters" category. It's all common sense really. If you are unsure which category a page should be in, don't worry about it.

Monsters
All new monster pages should use the following layout. If you see something in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS, remove them, and either delete those words, or replace them with missing data that the words in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS was talking about. When you copy and paste the following, be sure to paste it into the editor in "source mode". You can edit the wiki in "source mode" by clicking the button labeled "source" above the editor.
