This is a quick guide to how things should be formatted in the 'Souls Wiki. Please try to adhere to it as much as possible so Kiri's brains doesn't explode from rampant nonconformity. To be contradictory though, there is lots of leeway allowed. Creative freedom! ...Try to find some nice common ground between those two sentences. <_<
Linking Shortcuts
- SoulsProfile:# inside your double brackets will automatically link to the 'Souls forum profile of the # user
- SoulsThread:# does the same for threads.
- SoulsForum:# does the same for forums.
- PLEASE use these whenever you're linking to the forum. Since bleeding-souls.com is technically out of date, it is very likely that we may switch to a different domain once it expires. As such, using these shortcutted links will make things much easier later. Thanks!
- Note that these link to the current active forum. The IPB 2.2.2 board is dead and apparently inaccessible and EZBoard you'll have to link manually.
- Finally Souls:RestOfLink can be used to link anything off the 'Souls domain. You're basically replacing the bleeding-souls.com part with "Souls:"
- Detailed histories should be written in paragraph form with a section to link individual months if applicible.
- Monthly pages should also be written in paragraph form.
- Include pictures when you can. No one likes giant walls of text!
- Link the character's name at least the first time the name appears on a page.
- Each family should be separated into generations. The First Generation should be the generation that the first (relevant) barer of the family name was born into. "Relevant" means that the character was played at 'Souls. For example, even though Kaena Lykoi probably wasn't the first in her family to have the surname Lykoi, she was the first to have been played at 'Souls, and thus she would be included within the First Generation on the Lykoi family page.
- Each litter should be listed with the mother first so that it reads Mother x Father. The parent that contributes the family blood should be bolded.
- Litters within a generation should be listed in the order they were born.
- Litters with multiple fathers should be separated and put into separate litters by father. A grey heart (♥) can be used to indicate that the two litters are actually one.
- Pick from either of our three templates!
- Or make up your own, but try to keep it structured and organized!
- Free for all!
- Write whatever you want. It's like a free webpage!
