Instructions
- Code sections can be copied using the edit link for this page.
- Choose an appropriate category, which will normally be
[[Category:Windows]]
. - The Fallout series of articles is an excellent reference point for example of good articles.
Bullet point icons
- The purpose of the bullet point graphics is to provide more brevity and clarity to article content.
- All icons automatically indent onto a new line.
- Virtually all sentences in all game fix pages should use these codes:
- -
{{ii}}
- information. - -
{{++}}
- positive / advantage / recommend. - -
{{--}}
- negative / disadvantage / dissuade.
Style crib sheet
- We have decided to not include genre information. The focus of the wiki is to provide information about how to fix games, rather than the content of games.
- Reference where the fixes come from using <ref> tags.[1]
- All headers and page names to use sentence case. This means capital letter at the beginning of a sentence, with no other capitals unless it is a proper noun or acryonym.
Fixbox
- Use the Fixbox template to boxout fixes and instructions.
Fixbox/fix
- Parameters include:
- |link=false - no 'link here' text - if you want to make the header into a link itself.
Example

Note: Fixbox titles MUST describe the fix method, e.g. 'Edit VideoSettings.ini' or 'Run in DirectX 9 through command line'. This helps the user make a choice between multiple solutions to the same problem.

- Which is the 'best' version of the game to get?
Essential improvements
- One can use subheaders as below, or simply list individual improvements as 3rd level headers.
