Global wiki guidelines
These guidelines apply to all games on the wiki.
Writing style
- Use italics when you are referring to the title of the game.
Gadvia is a mobile rhythm game
- You may use a link and italics when you are referring to the title of the game for the first time and the game might be relevant to the reader.
Gadvia is a mobile rhythm game.
Dates and times
Dates should be generally using the extended format of ISO 8601. In short:
- for the UTC timezone, it's the following format:
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ(for example:2024-12-06T09:00Z). - for other timezones, it's the following format:
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss+TZOFFSET(for example, for UTC+8:2024-12-06T17:00+08:00).
Pages and page titles
- Pages that focus on general mechanics, content, or tools, that are not specific to any one game, should be put into the main namespace, for example:
TextMesh Pro. - Guides that describe general topics that are not game-specific, or relate to multiple games at once, should be put into the main namespace, under the "Guides" page, for example:
Guides/Editing a JSON file. - Pages describing game content or game mechanics should be put into a game's namespace, for example:
Gadvia:Adventure mode. If a game does not have a namespace, a new namespace should be requested. - Game guides should be put into the game's namespace, under the "Guides" page, for example:
Gadvia:Guides/Extracting game files. - Pages that contain information about the wiki itself should be put in the meta namespace (
Rhythm Game Wiki), for example:Rhythm Game Wiki:Copyrights.
Files and pages in other namespaces
- Template titles should have no spaces and be in PascalCase, for example
Template:DataStructure - Files (images, videos, audio, etc.) for specific games that are put into the
File:(orMedia:) namespace, have aGameName-prefix, for example:Media:Rizline-Disc 2 Image.png. - Templates for specific games are in the
Template:namespace, have aGameNameprefix, for example:Template:RizlineDiscInfoBox.
Useful templates
Text formatting
The following text has a tooltip. Hovering your mouse over it will display a message.
Template:Date- shows a tooltip with the date in the user's timezone (using JavaScript).
