		+	These are the '''Editing Guidelines''' for those wishing to contribute to the wiki. Please read them before editing pages.
		+
		+	== Guidelines ==
		+	* <span style="color:#c9191d">'''All articles</span> are to be writen in third person'''. No "I, you, me, us, we". etc.<br />
		+	:<small>''If it helps, write as if you are teaching someone how the game ''is played'', not ''how to play it.'' Example: “Engineers often do so-and-so”, instead of “As an Engineer, you should do so-and-so.”''</small>
		+
		+	* There are more scenes out there than just the one you are on about. '''Include things that may be different across scenes'''. ({{abbr\|eg\|for example}}: Map list, Map rules, Weapon list, etc...)
		+
		+	* '''Avoid opinions''' and unsupported generalizations.
		+	:<small>''If people disagree with you, it is not something that belongs in a wiki (unless you present it as an opinion, ie. “It is believed by some soldiers that the Black Box is useful for roaming” versus “I like the Black Box, it's great for roamers. Try it out!”).''</small>
		+
		+	* There are always going to be controversial topics like strategies, loadout choices, weapon and offclass choices etc., but because we are a competitive wiki, we aim to help new players as much as possible, so guides and guidelines for classes / strategies can be added even if they are controversial, in a constantly changing game like ours would be almost impossible to set in stone that this or that strategy is 100% sure and not biased. Just make sure to create new sections or appropriate pages with common sense. For example, a very specific spy guide, writed by a specific player, won't obviously be unbiased and 100% right, but it is still a great potential resource for new players if added and tagged accordingly as so.
		+
		+	* Use the discussion tabs on each page to discuss possible changes / updates or suggestions to those pages.
		+
		+	* '''Summarise your edits'''.
		+	: ''<small>This is for easier revision and moderating purposes.</small>''
		+
		+	* '''Add references''' if you can, and if applicable.
		+
		+	* Try to group multiple edits of the same page into a '''single edit'''. We encourage using the "Show Preview" button and proof reading.
		+	: ''<small>This is for easier revision and moderating purposes. Sometimes things slip though, so don't worry if you have that one off.</small>''
		+
		+	* '''Categorise''' your page/templates/images and keep them consistent across the board.
		+	: ''<small>If you're unsure of what Category to use, look at other examples of the same thing, ask our staff or simply make a reasonable one yourself.</small>''
		+
		+	* '''Always''' add [[:Category:Maintenance_templates\|Maintenance Templates]] to pages accordingly.
		+
		+	* '''Use Templates''' for pages when available.
		+	: ''<small>They're easy to use and our readers find them far more pleasant to look at.</small>''
		+
		+	== Starting a New Page ==
		+
		+	* '''Make sure it's a topic that needs its own page''':
		+	# Does the page already exist? Does it exist under a different name?
		+	# Is the page just a definition of a term or concept? If so, it may belongs in the [[Glossary]].
		+	# Is it a topic already covered as a subtopic of another article? If so, make a new page only if it is an advanced topic that can be heavily elaborated on (and don't forget to add a link from that page).
		+	# Is it a very broad topic (like “Competitive Team Fortress 2” or “Combat Classes”)? Maybe it should be split into smaller topics.
		+	<br />
		+
		+	* Once ready and certain for the page, you may create the page by clicking on a red link to that page, or typing in the desired title of the page you want to create, and then clicking the red link.
		+	** Design a layout for the page that gives all related information in a clean format, refer to a recent page of similar topic or use a template.
		+	** When you are satisfied with what is hopefully at least an introductory amount of information in your article, link to it from related pages in their “See Also” sections so we can see it!
		+	** Categorize and always tag pages accordingly, remember to keep [[Special:Categories\|Categories]] consistent across all pages and the whole wiki. You can check how categories work on wikis [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Categories Here!]
		+	** Add maintenance Templates to pages accordingly - [[:Category:Maintenance_templates\|'''Use the Templates!''']]

 These are the '''Editing Guidelines''' for those wishing to contribute to the wiki.  Please read them before editing pages.
-= Guidelines =
+== Guidelines ==
-* Please, remember to write <span style="color:#FF0000">'''all articles'''</span> in the '''third person'''. This means no usage of first or second person pronouns (I, you, me, us, we, etc). If it helps, write as if you are teaching someone how the game ''is played'', not ''how to play it.'' Example: “Engineers often do so-and-so”, instead of “As an Engineer, you should do so-and-so.”
+* <span style="color:#c9191d">'''All articles</span> are to be writen in third person'''. No "I, you, me, us, we". etc.<br />
-* Keep in mind, this is not a scene-centric wiki, so if you add info relevant to more than 1 scene (ex:NA and EU scene), make a way for a scene specific version of that article or add subtopics for each scene if needed. (Ex: Map list, Weapon list, etc...)
+* There are more scenes out there than just the one you are on about. '''Include things that may be different across scenes'''. ({{abbr|eg|for example}}: Map list, Map rules, Weapon list, etc...)
-* Avoid opinions and unsupported generalizations.  If people disagree with you, it is not something that belongs in a wiki (unless you present it as an opinion, ie. “It is believed by some soldiers that the Black Box is useful for roaming” versus “I like the Black Box, it's great for roamers.  Try it out!”).

-* Try to group multiple edits of the same page into the big one with a detailed summary and not many smaller ones with no summary at all. No one will die if you forget to bold this or that word and have to go back and make 1 or 2 small edits, but try not to make a different edit for each word you forgot to bold or each pharagraph you forgot to format, this also makes the recent changes list less poluted and easy to patrol by the moderation team.
