There is no current (September 2021) consensus on whether "belle" and "morgana" should be capitalized or not when used on this wiki. However, once a consensus emerges, we should strive for consistency. This page will be updated once a decision is made. | There is no current (September 2021) consensus on whether "belle" and "morgana" should be capitalized or not when used on this wiki.

There is no current (September 2021) consensus on capitalization of specific game terms. For example, when discussing a belle's main battery, should it be written "Battery I" or "battery I?" Should nouns like "vestures" be capitalized? | |||

When a value for a named line in an information box (also known as an "infobox" in MediaWiki speak) is intentionally left blank, the following fillers are suggested: | |||
A | * "None" if the line can be filled, but isn't. For example, a belle whose default Battery I contains no RDF would simply list RDF as "None." | ||
* "N/A" if the line applies to ''other'' uses of the infobox, but would never be used for this specific infobox. | |||
* "Unknown" if the line can be filled in the future, but the information that would populate it is not currently available. For example, a belle whose voice actress has not been credited publicly at time of page creation. | |||
=== Templates === | |||
If an infobox does not yet exist for a set of information that is best contained in a two-column, many-row table, use the [[Template:Belle|belle template]] and its [[Template:Belle/doc|documentation]] as examples to create a new infobox. It is highly recommended to do so in "source" (pure text editing) mode rather than any graphical interfaces offered by MediaWiki. | |||

== Pages == | |||
Pages should be derived from a template if at all possible. This helps standardize the wiki's appearance. | |||
As part of mobile first design, pages should use as many infoboxes and templates within themselves as possible. This game contains a large amount of data that needs to be presented in a unified, mobile-friendly format. Infoboxes allow corralling said data while maintaining a mobile-friendly experience. | |||
Minimize image usage on main pages. For example, if a belle receives a "skins" page, go nuts with images there, but not on her main page! | |||
