Wikigogy style guide
Welcome to discuss these style guidelines on the talk page.
Contents |
Neutral tone
Write in a gentle objective tone that does not cross swords with others' opinions. Diverse views are welcome but arguments, political, professional or private, are not. They are not what Wikigogy is for.
- If you feel a page is non-neutral please
- correct it by editing the page, or
- put the neutral tone violation tag {{ntvio}} on the page and someone else will look into fixing it.
Further thoughts and comments about this policy are welcome on the Talk page.
Heading
Headings break pages up into logical sections. Start with 2 equal signs (==) so that the page title remains the only H1 heading.
- H2 headings first level divisions within a page, create with 2 equal signs (==) on both ends of a line. Please use this only when it is really waranted, for example to divide long pages. For smaller pages, consider starting with H3 headings instead.
- H3 headings subheadings within H2 headings, create with 3 equal signs (===) at both ends of a line. On simpler pages, it's okay to skip H2 headings and start with H3 headings instead -- do what looks right to you.
- H4 headings subheadings within H3 headings, create with 4 equal signs (====) at both ends of a line.
- H5 headings subheadings within H4 headings, create with 5 equal signs (=====) at both ends of a line.
AVOID USING FULL CAPS in headings -- let Wikigogy's default heading styles shine through for a consistent look and feel across the site.
Contents
If a page has more than three headings a table of contents will automatically appear at top. If you don't want it, put __NOTOC__ at page bottom.
List
- Bullet lists use squares on Wikigogy. When numbered lists are needed, numbers can be created by using # instead of *. Please use bullet lists normally because numbered lists are more trouble to maintain.
- No blank lines between list items is best. The software can handle blank lines in bullet lists okay but numbered lists start over with 1 at blank lines. For a paragraph break in a list item you can use <br /> instead of a blank line.
- Bold focus the main word in each list item if you like.
