Style Guide

This page contains guides on how to fill out both episode and character pages. It will walk you through the kind of information each section should contain, and provide a format to copy and paste onto newly created pages. This page will be edited and kept up to date should any changes occur. Only admins have permission to edit it, but feel free to message AbnormalVampire64 about any clarification needed.

## Episode Pages

Copy and paste the following when creating a new episode page.

```
{{Episode Infobox
}}
{{Quote|Copy text from spotify description|Episode Notes from Spotify}}

== Summary ==
:''The following is a summary written for this wiki. It only hits the major points of the episode and, as such, should not be used as a substitute for listening to the episode as intended by the creators.
=== Main Story ===
:''To be added''
=== Continuity ===
:''To be added''
}}

== Characters ==
:''To be added''

== Notes ==
:''To be added''

{{Episodes}}

```

* See Template:Episode Infobox for information on filling that out.
* **Main Story** should be a relatively short, but informative, description of the episode, roughly formatted as a paragraph per 'scene'.
	+ For Remembrances, this should be the broad strokes of the story, but not go too far into specifics.
	+ Anything else should usually be more expansive.
	+ Any pieces of dialogue that hint/relate to lore should be added to Lore Nuggets, or to an obvious relevant page.
* **Continuity** should be relevant to the whole of the podcast and provide links to relevant past or future episodes.
	+ This can include:
		- When characters re-appear, or where they have been previously seen.
		- Any future episodes that follow on from this one, or ones this is a follow-up of.
* **Characters** should include all named or unnamed background characters.
	+ Characters who are mentioned but not in the episode should be called out as such using the following:
	```
	<small>(mentioned)</small>
	```
	+ Any characters that aren't major (ie: showing up in numerous episodes), should be added to Characters/Episode.
		- An exception to this would be any character who has not shown up for a while, for instance in the case of Dottie Jean Barlow, who should also be added despite being major.
	+ Characters should be ordered in the order they appear or are mentioned in the episode.
	+ They should also have some basic information on the role the played in the episode added to the section.
* **Notes** should involve interesting tidbit, trivia, and production notes.
	+ This section can be deleted if there is no relevant information.

Episode 1 - Fresh Cuttings can be used as a template.

```

}}

{{Characters}}

```

* See Template:Character Infobox for information on filling that out. Any irrelevant sections should be left empty but not deleted.
* **Description** can include subsections like 'Appearance, Personality, Skills', depending on how much we know about them.
* **History** should outline anything that they do, or we know they have done, in the podcast.
	+ This should be presented in roughly chronological order, with the specific episode where it is stated or revealed *referenced*.
		- To find information on how to reference, go here.
	+ Any major reveal about previous events that happens later in the podcast, should go where they are revealed rather than when it actually happened, unless that event was pre-canon.
* **Relationships** should have information about how they interact with other characters, with each character having their own section.
* **Appearances** should have links to each episode they appear in.
* In regards to **References**, any bit of information that links to a specific episode or page that would not be immediately obvious should be referenced for easy location for others.
