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]

Fixbox
- Use the Fixbox template to boxout fixes and instructions.
Fixbox/fix and Fixbox/instructions
- Parameters include:
- |link=false - no 'link here' text - if you want to make the header into a link itself. Use if the header includes a reference or any other internal/external link.
