New page

== General Format Standards ==

All pages should have the following:

# Links to the page's author, the parent page (if a subpage), and to any general wiki pages that lead to that page (e.g. [[Artifacts]], WikiContent).
# Content broken up into hard-returned paragraphs.
# Spell-checked content, if necessary.

That's the important stuff. Below is more specific advice and a general template.

* back to FormatStandards.

=== More Specific Advice ===

Line spacers ("<tt><nowiki>----</nowiki></tt>") are often good for separating lists of items.

When possible, long lists of items can be divided up using appropriate headers ("<tt><nowiki>== header name here ==</nowiki></tt>") and subheaders ("<tt><nowiki>=== subheader name here ===</nowiki></tt>"). The top header ("<tt><nowiki>= header name here =</nowiki></tt>") is very large and inelegant, and should probably not be used except at the head of a page, or the start of a category which subsumes several other categories.

If you find that a category has become very long, you are encouraged to move it to its own subpage ("<tt><nowiki>/SubpageNameHere</nowiki></tt>").

Suggested categorization systems:
* Hearthstones: by level, or by Aspect
* Artifacts: by level, or by material
* Virtue Flaws: by Virtue

What follows is a template. Again, it's not at all required; just an idea. It starts after the line spacer, which is not part of it.

== Page's Name Here ==

Brief (one paragraph or so) synopsis here.

* back to [author's UserPage].
* back to [general wiki page that links to it, if any].

=== Contents ===

If you put in anchors (see TextFormattingRules), list them here.

=== Longer Justification / Explanation ===

If necessary, go into the details of why you're making the page.

=== Flavour / History ===

If necessary, put all your flavour text and / or history and / or fiction or whatever here.

=== Mechanics / Statistics ===

If necessary, put mechanics or statistics here.

=== Comments ===

Leave a space so people can comment on your work.
