StrategyWiki:Achievements project

From StrategyWiki, the free strategy guide and walkthrough wiki

Members of the Achievements project manage the layout and completion of a comprehensive list achievements and trophies on the various Xbox 360 and Xbox Live Arcade games, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Network games, as well as other games which have achievements, such as Games for Windows. All achievements pages can be found in subcategories of the Achievements category.

[edit] Achievement pages

[edit] Layout

A special template exists for laying out achievement pages: {{Achievements Header}}. It is to be used to start a table as follows:

{{Achievements Header|g=yes|trophy=yes}}
| [[Image:Achievement_image.jpg]] || Achievement name || The official description of the achievement. || {{G|10}} || {{Bronze}}
|-
| ...
|}

The table contains all the achievements, with the first column containing the achievement's image, the second its name, the third its official description, the fourth its Gamerscore (if appropriate) using {{G}}, and the last its trophy, if applicable. Above the table should be a short sentence summarising at least the number of achievements in the table, and the total Gamerscore.

If a game has several different sets of achievements (for example, single player and multiplayer achievements), they should be put into separate tables under appropriate level-two headings.

For a good example of an achievement page, see Fallout 3/Achievements and trophies.

[edit] Categorisation

Achievement pages can be put into multiple achievement categories, depending on the systems for which they've been released.

Achievement pages should never be put straight into Category:Achievements. It is possible to find out the systems for which a game was released from the infobox on the game's main page.

[edit] Achievement images

Images for each achievement go exclusively in Category:Achievement images, and likewise trophies should go in Category:Trophy images. Achievement and trophy images should typically be 64×64 pixels in size, and the image description should contain the relevant achievement's name, as well as a link to its game.
