Usage[]

Formatting[]

  • The game's name should be italicised (Salt).
  • Whenever the subject of the article is mentioned, it should be capitalised.
  • The first mention of the article's subject should be in bold.

Linking[]

  • A link to another article should only appear once in an article. If Innkeeper is linked to in a page, that should be the only link to Innkeeper. Multiple links can be created to another page on longer articles, so that the user does not need to scroll up to the only link on the page.
