Editing Rules

Here are the list of guidelines an editor is to follow when editing this wikia:

Templates

 * Currently, the template takes the name of the page as the Japanese name of the card.


 * For card pages, use the "Template:CardTable" template
 * Do create a redirect page to the actual page that is using the english name
 * For the characteristic field type in { { characteristic } }.

After which a link to the gallery will be shown. Use Template:CardGallery for the Gallery page.


 * The convention currently is to use the Japanese name as the name of the page. This is to avoid different Page names of the same card. However, if there is an OFFICIAL English name, that would be used instead.

For other stuff, please add it as a note after the template
 * For Q&A, use the "Template:QuestionBox" template

Characteristics
E [[Category:J]] Where J is the Japanese word while E is the English translation equivalent. (Spaces doesn't matter)
 * Step one of editing characteristics section for the card is of course adding the characteristic to the card.
 * This is done by adding  –  to the Japanese words representing the characteristics, which will appear as .
 * After you save the page, you will notice a red link template:characteristic. This means the link to the template for the characteristic is created. If it is something else, then it means either the template is already created or something is wrong.
 * Step two is manually creating the template. (if needed)
 * Clinking on the red link will bring you to a new page creation window. In it, copy
 * Click save and voila, you have your link to the category page for the card characteristic. Now all that's left is to create a category page for it...

Pictures

 * PLEASE DO NOT HOTLINK, ADD PICTURES INTO THE WIKIA INSTEAD

Texts
line1
 * If another card's names is mentioned in the text of a card. Link it to that page.
 * If there is currently no translator to translate texts to English (Or the tanslator is busy etc.), leave it empty to allow the template to tag it with a needs translation category.
 * For the various keyword abilities follow this example: 【Automatic】 CHANGE ［(2) Return this card to your hand］ At the start of your Draw Phase, pay the cost, then search for one 「Protagonist & Izanagi-Okami」 and place it in the card slot this card was occupying.
 * Using the above example, the template will be: 【Type of ability】 BOLDED KEYWORD ABILITY IN CAPS [The cost] ability description.
 * As far as possible, try to use the same format as the original text, so for card names use 「card name」, for ability type use 【Type of ability】 and for characteristic use 《Characteristic》, this is to maintain consistency with the original card text and to reduce confusion.
 * Remember to leave 1 empty new line in between each ability, so its :

line2 instead of line1 line2
 * 【Stand】【Rest】 and 【Reverse】 are known as state, not positions.
 * All the various play area are named X Area, X being the area it is, for example Stock Area, or Climax Area. Do type the first alphabet in upper case.
 * The playing field as a whole is referred to as Stage, the 3 slots in front are Center Stage, and the 2 behind is Back Stage.
 * If there are any confusion, do check with sdarkpaladin or pulper, if specific instructions cannot be found, do cross reference with other pages before coming up with your own conventions.
 * As far as possible, for phrasing, follow the examples in the Conventions, I will be adding more template translation that you can copy & paste and simple change the values soon. Pulper 03:26, May 21, 2010 (UTC)

Terms to use when editing
See Conventions.

Editing
Please do not copy text from other english translation site. Any text that is copied and reported will be deleted. The only exceptions is that if the text is a literal translation and no other alternative is available.

On talk or discussion pages, please sign off with 4 tildes or something, so that we can identify whose opinion/suggestion/question was it.

What to do if you do not understand japanese
You will still be able to do lots of things like checking for inconsistancy or spelling errors. For those with minimal understanding, you can go to the main WS web and copy information over through their card list page =D

Reporting
If there is something urgently wrong with a page, you can inform me at my talk page or Pulper's.
