Elwiki:Editing Rules: Difference between revisions

Please follow these rules when editing pages!

* If you want to make a request to edit a protected page, contact an [{{fullurl:Special:ListUsers|group=ElEditors}} ElEditor] or an [{{fullurl:Special:ListUsers|group=sysop}} Administrator].

* Make sure your edits are clear and understandable to the readers. We understand that not everyone is fluent in English but other editors might not be able to fix your grammatical errors if we don't understand what you are trying to say.  

* Do not add any external links to inappropriate websites.

* Do not add trivia about references to other anime, games, or films unless the reference is confirmed to be intentional.

* Do not add speculations of future content updates without providing an official source.

* To avoid confusion, please make sure that all dates are written in one of the following formats:  

** MM/DD/YYYY

* To avoid confusion, please do not use initials when referring to certain classes, [[Ice Burners]], or equipment sets. (For example, '''TT''' can refer to [[Tactical Trooper]] or [[Time Tracer]] and '''GF''' can refer to the '''Gold Falcon''' or '''Grace Fairy''' sets)

* When editing skills, add information involving gameplay mechanics under the '''Tips and Details''' section, information about different translated names under the '''Alternative Names''' section, and all other information under the '''Trivia''' section.

When creating a '''Total Damage''' section on skill pages, please keep the following rules in mind:

*Always calculate damage under the assumption of one target, unless the skill has separate damage values for multiple targets, such as [[Hypersonic Stab/ModA|[Mod] Hypersonic Stab]].

*When doing hit count tests in [[Free Training]], be aware of the possibility of hit count errors due to a glitch - if possible, verify it elsewhere, such as in [[Ereda Island]], and add <nowiki>{{SkillText|Free Training}}</nowiki> (preceded by a space) above the total damage table if the training hit count is determined to be erroneous.

In addition, please avoid using the following effects when performing calculations or creating new damage listings:

*Any one-time effects that aren't permanently available, such as [[Memory of the Sword]]'s "Every 3rd Conwell Skill" effect.

*Any effects that require a debuff on a target, such as [[Gaze of Abyss]] or [[Sage's Wisdom]].

== Rules regarding Server Differences ==

There are many differences between the Korean server and the North American server. Please follow the following rules in regards to the differences between these servers.

* When creating a link to pages in this wiki, '''do not use external links if you can use internal.''' (E.g. [[Ara|{{fullurl:Ara}}]] should be written as <nowiki>[[Ara]]</nowiki> rather than <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[Ara|{{fullurl:Ara}}]]<nowiki>]</nowiki>.) Use fullurl, filepath, etc. instead of raw paths.

** External link to this wiki makes it harder to maintain, as link fix can not deal with those links and will result in broken links.

== Namespace Usage ==

When creating new pages, please select the appropriate namespace/prefix when selecting the page title.
