== Image categorization ==


When uploading images, please make sure to categorise them using the correct [[:Category:Images|image categories]] and the guide-specific category, i.e. '''<nowiki>[[</nowiki>Category:''Game Name'' images]]'''. Please see [[StrategyWiki:Guide/Image naming|our image policy]] for more details. Thanks for helping to keep our images neat! [[User:Paco|Paco]] ([[User talk: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!

Hi Sclera, thanks for your help. Just so you know, {{t|stub}} goes above {{t|Header Nav}}. If you want to stub particular sections, use {{t|sect-stub}} instead. Thank you, --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 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 [[SW:SCOPE|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 [[:Category:Guides_at_completion_stage_5|featured guides]].  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 01:43, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
==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! — '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 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.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 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.

== Table of Contents links ==
Please add these as links instead of just text: [[The Terminator: Dawn of Fate/Table of Contents]]. If you don't get back around to filling in the pages, future less experienced editors can just click the links and jump in to editing the pages. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|talk]]) 05:22, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
== The Force Unleased ==
I saw you created a few pages for the [[Star Wars: The Force Unleashed]] guide. Since the 4 versions are so different, I split up the guides. Can you please verify your content is in the correct guide? -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|talk]]) 03:48, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
:Thanks! No rush. Also, please use four tilde's to sign <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> otherwise it doesn't include your name. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|talk]]) 03:56, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
