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 pre-load buttons located above the edit text box (e.g. click on "Guide page" to add {{t|Header Nav}} to the top and {{t|Footer Nav}} to the bottom), which will insert the needed templates and formatting for you. These templates are very handy because they include the templates that are required for each page type. If you are unsure about how to use them, or what pages to use them on, please let me know.

FFX questions

  1. You may use content from another website, but if and only if their license is compatible with ours (CC-BY-SA 3.0). I believe most or all of Wikia is covered by that license. If content is not convered by that license, you must get the author's permission to release content under our license, which effectively puts that content in the public domain. We're not allowed to do that without permission.
  2. About 90% of our front pages are nearly identical copies of the introductory information found on the Wikipedia page for the same game. So really, our Final Fantasy X front page should resemble the top of wp:Final Fantasy X, it's just that no one has bothered to copy the content over yet.
  3. Video walkthroughs are not hosted by StrategyWiki, but you are free to insert them into a guide using the {{YouTube}} template. There's also a way to embed DailyMotion videos as well, I just don't remember it off the top of my head.

Feel free to respond here on your own talk page, I'll see the update. Procyon 18:59, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

Image categorisation

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! — Procyon 18:59, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
