Editing NBITTRPG Wiki:Manual of Style/Page Formatting

{{MoSNavBox}}
This is a section of the Manual of Style meant to make sure every page is consistent with other pages similar to them or of the same category.
== General Rules==
=== Opening Sentences ===
It is imperative that all pages that describe '''something''' within '''some world''' make sure to specify which world, campaign, and or AU it takes place in within the first few sentences.

For example, this is not acceptable because it is unclear to the reader what the content of the page is about:
:: '''''Lucia''' was a city in '''Electricia'''.''
Readers with no knowledge of what world has an "Electricia" will not receive enough information to determine if they've reached a relevant page or not. Here's how it can be reformatted:
:: '''''Lucia''' was a city in '''Weathia'''. It was located in the nation of '''Electricia'''...''
The reason why this must be strict is also to prevent the possibility of two worlds having the same name for a person, location, or object. If this was the "Weathia Wiki", the first sentence would be appropriate, and no issues would be present. Sorry if this requires most pages to be changed.

=== Content Order ===
The order of the content on each page should be consistent throughout most pages of the same type.
==== Headings ====
Many different pages may have different headings, but the final headings will always be in this order.
* The '''Gallery''' section
* The '''Trivia''' section
* The '''References''' section 
Below the reference section is (usually) a navigation box.
== Character Pages ==
The formatting of these pages is dependent on world and whether they're a PC or NPC. Please see [[{{SITENAME}}:Manual_of_Style/Page_Formatting/Characters|this page]] on more information on how to format character pages.
== Session Pages ==
The formatting of session pages is dependent on the campaign. However, some things remain the same. Please put the [[Template:SessionInfobox]] template at the top, then place everything else after. Keep the headers in the given order, but feel free to omit headers that have no applicable content. Make sure to also alphabetize the "NPC Appearance" list.

Please see [[{{SITENAME}}:Manual_of_Style/Page_Formatting/Sessions|this page]] on more information on how to format location pages.
== Location Pages ==
The formatting of location pages is dependent on the world. Please see [[{{SITENAME}}:Manual_of_Style/Page_Formatting/Locations|this page]] on more information on how to format location pages.
