The Manual of Style is expected to be followed by all pages. Any title that the article may have, including alternate names, should be stated and put in bold in the header of the page. The header should include a brief description about what the article is about.

General Notes[]

  • Proper grammar and punctuation is expected.
  • Referring to anything as "new" is discouraged, as it will eventually not be new.
  • There should be no empty sections in any article. Writing TBW, or any variation, does not count as filling a section.
  • The Policy still applies when creating and editing a page.

Templates[]

Proper Templates are expected to be on all pages, in the proper locations, with Notice Templates being at the top, followed by an Infobox, followed by (at most) a single quote. Navboxes should be placed at the end of the article. Templates should be excluded if they do not apply.

Archived Pages[]

A page will be Archived when the owner of the page goes inactive, or the owner decides to archive it. When a page is archived, the {{Archived}} Template will be added to the top of the page, and the page will be protected so that only admins can edit it. This is done to prevent the article from being vandalized in the future, as it is assumed all necessary edits made to the page have been made to it, and therefore no future edits are assumed to be necessary. If you find a reason an archived page needs to be edited (i.e. you find a typo), or you are the owner of an archived page, and wish to remove its protections, contact an admin.

Stubs[]

A page is determined to be a Stub when it fails to follow the Manual of Style, in which case the {{Stub}} template will be added to the top of the page, and the reason as to why it was marked as a stub will be added to the template. When a page is marked as a stub, a warning will be given to the owner of the page. If the issue is not fixed a week after the warning, the page may be deleted. If the page's owner is inactive, and a page is determined to be a stub, the page may be deleted without a warning being given or being marked as a stub.

Characters[]

Articles about Characters are expected to have both a History and Personality section, which should contain the character's backstory, and personality respectively. While this is more lenient on lesser important characters, which may be able to get away with just one of the sections, more major characters require both.

While several infoboxes exist that can be used for characters, the standard info ox that is used is the {{AgentInfobox}} template; if you wish to use a different infobox, it should be in the same general style as this template. The {{AgentNav}} template should be located at the end of the article of every character. If said character is a puffle, the {{PuffleNav}} template should be used instead, and Category:Characters should be added to the page. All other applicable navigation templates should go below these, although a custom “family” navbox may be placed above them.

Objects[]

Articles about Objects should contain a description of the object, and its purpose. The {{GadgetNav}} template should be added to the bottom of these pages.

Agencies[]

Articles about Agencies should contain the Agency's job, and who is in the agency.

Locations[]

Articles about Locations should contain the significance of the location. The {{GadgetNav}} template should be added to the bottom of these pages.

Puffle Species[]

Articles about Puffle Species should contain facts about the characteristics of the puffle. The {{PuffleNav}} template should be at the end of every page about a puffle species.

Languages[]

Articles about Languages should contain all known words in that language. The {{GadgetNav}} template should be added to the bottom of these pages.

Jokes[]

Articles which are Jokes are acceptable. However, they must be put in Category:Jokes, and must still follow the Manual of Style.

Trivia Sections[]

Trivia Sections should only contain information that indirectly relates to an article.

Galleries[]

Galleries should contain only images of what the article is about. If a gallery becomes large enough (generally 8/9 images), a subpage should be created for it. These subpages should include a header stating what the page is a gallery of, and should be filed under Category:Images.

Categorization[]

Only the Categories a page belongs in should be added. A new category should not be created unless there is a purpose to that category. Opinion categories are also not allowed.
