Preload buttons
In order to keep pages on the wiki neat and uniform, we employ certain formatting and templates to help us accomplish this. When creating a new page, please use one of the preload buttons located above the edit text box, which will insert the needed templates and formatting for you. Thanks for keeping the wiki organized! — 17:39, 27 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Please remember to press the button! It saves the admins like myself time. Thanks =) -- 04:46, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

Resident Evil vs. Star Wars
I think you put the content of Star Wars: Starfighter/Walkthrough in the wrong place... Shouldn't it be on a Resident Evil page? -- 16:50, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

Image categorization
When uploading images, please make sure to categorise them using the correct image categories and the guide-specific category, i.e.  Category:Game Name images. Please see our image policy for more details. Thanks for helping to keep our images neat! Paco (talk) 11:50, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Goof work for adding the Achievement/Trophies for Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, but PLEASE add categories to all images you uploaded and keep it in Mind for the future. Thank you!

Watermarked images
Please do not add watermarked images, such as the Tails Adventure box artwork from Moby games. I've deleted the file you uploaded. -- 04:43, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Stubs
Hi Sclera, thanks for your help. Just so you know, stub goes above Header Nav. If you want to stub particular sections, use sect-stub instead. Thank you, -- 18:25, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Making a new page
You don't need to ask for permission to make a new page, provided that the page is based on a real, existing video game which falls within the site's scope. The best way to understand what a main game page should entail is to look at main pages for existing guides, particularly those which are part of our featured guides.

Easier editing
The Show preview button (right next to the Save page button) lets you see how your changes will look before saving the page. You can use Show preview as many times as you like until you get the page how you want it. You can also edit the whole page at one time, as opposed to by section, by clicking the Edit tab at the top of the page. Hopefully these little shortcuts will make it easier for you to get the desired result when you're editing, and save you a little time. Thanks for working on the wiki! —  Pro cyon  01:07, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the desire to get the Duke Nukem controls and Table of Contents pages just right, but if you could make your edits, and use the "Show Preview" button to see how they look, and then only save the page when you're sure it's correct, it would make the admins' jobs much easier. Thanks.   Pro  cyon  21:34, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

Stubbing in lists
It's fine to stub in lists if you don't have time to fill in the descriptions, that's absolutely no problem. It's not the number of edits to a page over its lifetime that matters, it's the very quick edits over a short period of time when you could just use Show Preview to test small changes out before saving them that make more work for admins. But yeah, stubbing information is totally cool, I do it when I'm short on time too.  Pro cyon  23:48, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
