General[]
- Use lower case unless talking about something where title case is more appropriate.
- Divide up long sections with sub-headings when possible
- Cite sources
- Avoid going into too much detail on a topic when there is a separate page for the topic. A few sentences and a link to the main article are more effective
- Only link once within a section
- Use Curly brackets instead of square ones when linking to episodes. This uses a template and will automatically italicize it, link it, and allow extra information on mouse-over
- Use red links if an article should exist. This tells others that there is a desire for the article and causes it to come up in Special:WantedPages
- Mark small edits (wording, grammar, categories, etc) minor
- Use descriptive file names when uploading images
- Never use copyrighted material without confirming its compatibility with our licenses.
- Don't flag images as fair use without understanding fair use.
- This includes content from Wikipedia.
- Use parenthetic citations when providing sources which are episodes. Reference tags may be used whenever a parenthetical citation would be cumbersome (such as in infoboxes)
