Style Guide

This is an official style guide on how to make a quality page of the Fazbear Factory.

Rule of Thumb

 * Pages must follow the rules at the bare minimum:
 * Pages must be written in grammatically correct English, with the correct use of spelling and punctuation. The page at the least should be legible.
 * Pages must have enough content to suffice: recommended three paragraphs and two headers. If a page is still in development, give it the work in progress template.
 * Pages should strive to be as creative as they can be and not carbon copy other characters or games, unless with a given reason. Feel free to add as many original characters, locales and concepts to your game.
 * It's standard that a page about a game should have information on the gameplay, and a page about an animatronic should have information on what they look like. This is the bare minimum for pages, and a page will immediately be flagged for deletion if it's missing these details.
 * Pages should be given appropriate categories. Most categories are already available on pre-existing character and location pages, although if necessary you can create your own category if none of the existing ones fit the bill.
 * Additionally, creating a category (and by extension navbox template) as a hub for all of your games is entirely allowed too.
 * When writing a page, please write it as if it's real. Do not write a page that admittedly states it's a fanon project.

Formatting

 * Remember to use the correct notices for a page: the not safe for work template, joke page template, or public template.
 * A page should have all the headers expected within a page: games with a story, gameplay and trivia headers and characters with an appearance, personality, history and game appearances headers.
 * Pages should link to other pages when necessary. You only use links once- e.g. we would link Freddy Fazbear right now, but not link Freddy Fazbear again since he's already been linked. Feel free to link to other pages for headers however.
 * Additionally the first and only the first mention of the page's namesake should be in bold.

Tips

 * As much as detail is appreciated, try not to make pages too wordy. Keep paragraphs appropriately sized and segment them when necessary. A long paragraph about the gameplay is fine, but splitting it up to focus on different mechanics is appreciated a lot more.
 * A page can have an infobox to host details on the game, although it's not necessary. An infobox editor is freely available in the current editor.

Example Pages
Here's some pages created exclusively for the style guide to help you understand what's needed in a page. Each page covers a different concept entirely.
 * Game: Five Nights at Freddy's: Store-Bought
 * Animatronic: Trickster Pig
 * Character: Oliver Carlson
 * Location: Fazbear's Pizza and Dining
