This wiki has a "Guide:" namespace for posting game walkthroughs and useful information that would be out of place on the main part of the wiki.

A full list of guide pages can be found on Guide:Index.

What goes here[edit]

Things you can post in the guide namespace include:

  • Game walkthroughs
  • Strategies, charts, and other useful info
  • ROM hacking information
  • Cheat codes

Do NOT copy content from other websites unless you yourself are the original author! ***Plagiarism will not be tolerated!***

(If the page has been translated from another language, make sure to include a link to the original.)

Creating pages in the guide namespace[edit]

The process for making new guide pages is the same as with regular articles, except that you put Guide: at the beginning of the page title. E.g. rather than creating a page named "Medarot 2 Walkthrough", you would name it "Guide:Medarot 2 Walkthrough".

Creating subpages[edit]

Sometimes it can be helpful to break a walkthrough up into multiple pages. To do this, name the subpage with the full title of the parent page, followed by a /, followed by the name of the subpage. For example, a page for chapter 1 of a Medarot 2 walkthough could be titled "Guide:Medarot 2 Walkthrough/Chapter 1".

Doing it this way means that it will be properly treated as a subpage by the wiki software, and it will automatically include a link back to the parent page at the top of the article. It also helps to keep the individual pages of a walkthrough organized and clearly-labeled.

Licensing and editing permissions[edit]

Please keep in mind that anything you post here will be published under the same license as the rest of the wiki, CC BY-NC-SA 3.0.

Also be aware that anyone will be able to edit the contents of the page, and collaboration with other users is encouraged. If you don't want other users editing your work, you should include a message saying so on the page. You will be responsible for policing your own guide.
