This page should proof as a guide for anyone editing the wiki.

There are no fixed rules though, especially, if something can be done better/easier/more efficient.

See the [[Talk:VsWiki:Manual_of_Style|talk]] section for discussions on this guide.

General

Vegastrike name

This is about the mentioning of the name Vegastrike or Vega Strike etc...

Header and title style

If you add headers to a page or make a new page (title), please try to avoid extremly long sentences.

Up to ~4 words should be able to sum up the page. If it's longer you may have to split the content anyway ;)

The name header/title should be formed like a correct sentence. (e.g capital letters = First one of sentence + 1st of names + alot of abbreviations)

Templates

See VsWiki:Templates for availabe templates and how to use them.

Content

Classify the content in categories

See Special:Categories for all available (and used :? ) categories, use them wisely.

See the manual and database pages for examples or browse the categories to figure out what categories are used for what content.

Images

General images

Most of the images currently used in the Wiki (especially in the Manual) are located in the wiki-manual gallery.

Keyboard images

Please see Manual:Keyboard layout for more info on how top easily include keys in you text (via Templates).

Unfinished stuff

If you are writing content fo rthe manual (or general the wiki) and you do not know anything about some part of it, just put the {{Fixme}} tags in your text.

You page will then be listed in the Category:Fixme where every editor should look into from time to time ;)
