Roblox Pirate Clash Wiki:Manual of Style

The Manual of Style details key and important editing rules used when participating on the Wiki. It is required for all editors to skim through this Manual if there is a question on how something should be formatted or written. If you have a question that is not answered by the Manual, you can ask one of the staff members for help.

Writing Articles and Grammar Studies

 * Pages must have infoboxes when applicable.
 * Correct Grammar, Spelling, Capitalization, Punctuation, etc. are mandatory at all times.
 * A space between a comma and a word is expected
 * Example: America, Greenland, and Antarctica.
 * Avoid publishing unnecessary context,
 * Examples: Avoid typing "...", ":(", etc.
 * This rule can only be bypassed when writing a quote.
 * It is advised to use Source Edit mode, as it is more advanced and reliable. Visual Edit may cause such troublesome glitches, and it is not as advanced.
 * Words that have their own page should be hyperlinked. Use the External Hyperlink if the subject is not related to the wiki. (Example: Roblox Pirate Clash Wiki, Google)
 * Try not to excessively link the same word to another page multiple times, it only needs to be linked once.
 * The excessive linking rule can be ignored when writing a Table.
 * If you do not know how to link a text, more information can be found here
 * Numbers that are over 1,000 should not be abbreviated. Meaning, do not a "K" or "M" after the number. It should be written fully and unabbreviated.
 * Example: Write "15,000", instead of "15k".
 * All pages need to be written in the third-person point of view (no "you", "me", ")
 * All articles must be written in English. This wiki consists of an English-speaking community, and all edits are expected to adhere to proper English writing and grammar.
 * Do not underline, bold, strikethrough, etc. random words, unless if it's necessary to.
 * Don't add categories that do not regard to the page's theme. This includes templates too.
 * Avoid creating useless pages. Users may accidentally create unnecessary pages, and if that ever happened to you, contacting an active Sysop on the Pirate Clash wiki will help.
 * All quotes in quotation marks should be written in italics.
 * If the Tablet of Contents is taking up too much of a page's space, or disturbs its structure, please remove it. If you do not know how to remove the Tablet of Contents, first, head to Source edit mode, then type
 * Site 76 Wiki is a source of information, not a dictionary. Try to limit the amount of complicated words/phrases when writing articles, and make them simple yet informative.

Imagery & Files

 * Photos should not be formatted where it is difficult to analyze or its huge enlargement. The picture shouldn't take a huge amount of the page's space, this also includes Infoboxes and Templates. Photos' sizes should not be small where it is extremely difficult or impossible to read.

 * All images must have a descriptive filename
 * Pictures should be used in infoboxes when applicable.
 * When making a transparent photo or cropping an image, do not make it look sloppy.
 * Multiple images should be placed in a Gallery at the bottom of the page.
 * Anything that does not regard to the subject of the screenshot should be cropped. Do not add unnecessary stuff within the photo, meaning, do not add watermarks, avoid in-game hotbars, unnecessary images within the photo, etc.
 * Watermarks are allowed to be pasted on maps or such other variations of artwork.
 * The watermarks on the map should be isolated away from the main concepts of the picture. For Example: placing a huge watermark that takes up the whole photo, or inserting it in front of the map diagram, these are all restricted
 * It is also advised to move your cursor out of the way when taking a screenshot.
 * Do not add files that contain flashing or strobing lights.
