General[edit source]

  • If a topic has more than one section, make sure it has a "lead" at the top.

Style[edit source]

  • Game titles and other major works use italics. See the Wikipedia manual of style.
  • Payday 2 is titled Payday 2, but often "stylized" as PAYDAY 2. For consistency, use Payday 2 for references to the software title, internal links, etc. Use PAYDAY 2 as desired for other items. PAYDAY 2 is the stylized version of Payday 2; no italics should be used.

Images[edit source]

  • Use PNG images, as opposed to GIF or JPEG images. Use transparency, if possible.

Semantics[edit source]

  • Use equipment pages as datasheets as much as possible.
  • Use #ask and #show as much as possible to take advantage of Semantic data.
  • Use #declare to set Semantic Property values in templates. Avoid setting Property values within the template itself. Use Ursa Tanto Knife as an example of the preferred way of managing Semantic Properties in a template.
  • Datatype declarations for properties are case-sensitive. [[Has type:Number]] is valid, while [[Has Type::Number]] is not. Use Property:Weapon Type as an example of the preferred way of documenting Semantic Properties.
