Wiki stuff
- When making a link, make sure there's no space before or after the brackets, as it will add unintended whitespace when followed by punctuation
- Good:
Use the [[Bomb Jump]], Luke.
- Bad:
Use the [[ Bomb Jump ]], Luke.
- Would be nice if people add spaces between syntax and text otherwise though.
- Good:
* This is a list item
- OK:
*This is a list item
Conventions
- Generally capitalize words in the title of the wiki pages. "Bomb Jump", "Quick Warp", "Out of Bounds Glitches". But when mentioned in a random paragraph, sometimes lower case is good.
- Some tech can be treated as names, re. capitalization, like "Out of Bounds". I think "This glitch is an Out of Bounds glitch" is easier to read than "This glitch is an out of bounds glitch". But maybe "Perform a bomb jump to the other side" is better?
- I've used a verbose form in Categories - Any% (NMG, No S+Q) - but I don't think we should use that form otherwise. I've removed the parenthesis and parts unneeded for alttper in random paragraphs, so for example Any% NMG and Any% No EG.
- Use the full dungeon/item name always (Eastern Palace, Tower of Hera), unless part of an established name (like Hera Clip).
