| This is a SmashWiki style guide, giving pointers of making an article look good even if it is very short.
| |
| | |
| == Lists ==
| |
| Lists can be created by having an asterisk be the first character in a line:
| |
| * Just
| |
| * like
| |
| * this.
| |
| Numbered ones can also be done with the number sign:
| |
| # Which
| |
| # is very
| |
| # similar. | |
| Lists shall never be done with line breakers, as it looks better with dots.<br />
| |
| | |
| == Images ==
| |
| === Banners ===
| |
| Wide banners should be compressed, but still viewable; copy this code to top of page:
| |
| [<i></i>[Image:BannerName.jpg|right|450px|{<i></i>{SUBST:PAGENAME}}'s banner]]
| |
| Replacing BannerName.jpg with the actual name of the uploaded banner. Size can vary depending of length.
| |
| | |
| == Wording ==
| |
| Use a lot of pronouns. Who doesn't like them?
| |
| * Bad example: ''Smiddle is a smasher who mains Luigi. Smiddle is crewless.''
| |
| * Better example: ''Smiddle is a smasher who mains Luigi. <u>He</u> is crewless.''
| |
| | |
| == Self references ==
| |
| Self references should be avoided.<br>
| |
| Bad examples:
| |
| * ''...then he wrote this page at SmashWiki.''
| |
| * Using ''page'' in the title of an article.
