*Note! There isn't a template for incomplete/stub articles, but there might be one added soon.*

## Skylander page

This is what a complete Skylander page should contain. An example of a complete page is Gourmet Gusto.

* An **introduction** that is around one to three lines long
	+ The Skylander's name should be **bold**
* A **CharacterInfobox** template with the following information
	+ **Species**
		- Add (Bird) after the species if the Skylander can be used in the bird house, even if the Skylander isn't a bird.
	+ **Gender** - Male or Female
	+ **Price** - Usually, Cores cost 200 Gems, variants of Cores cost 250 Gems, other types cost 300 Gems and Alter Egos cost 1500 Gems. Spyro is an exception because he is available for free.
	+ **Element** - The character's element
	+ **Type** - This should include both the Skylander type (Core, Giant, SWAP Force, Trap Master or Mini) and the variant type (Legendary, Special, Alter Ego)
* The **backstory** of the Skylander as seen in *Skylanders: Lost Islands*
* A full list of the Skylander's **missions**, with each mission looking like the "Name of the Mission" section seen later

	+ A category with the Skylander's **variant type** (leave empty if the Skylander is not a variant)
		- **Alter Egos**, if the Skylander is an Alter Ego. Only *Skylanders: Lost Islands* exclusive variants are called Alter Egos.
		- The name before the Skylander's name (such as **Legendary** or **Nitro**) if there are two or more Skylanders who have the same variant type.
		- If the character is a **Dark variant**, add it in the category **Dark (special)** because the category *Dark* is used for Dark element Skylanders.
		- If the Skylanders is a variant and doesn't fit in any of the previous examples, add it in the category **Special**.
		- Don't add a variant category if the Skylander is not a variant.
	+ A category with the Skylander's type
		- **Giants**, if the Skylander is a Giant (and is able to open Gold Chests)

		- Cores should not be added in a *Cores* category
	+ A category with the Skylander's **element**
	+ A category with the Skylander's **gender**
	+ The **Dragons** category if the Skylander can be used in the **Dragon's Lair**
