====== Wiki Style Guide ======

This guide covers conventions for creating and editing pages on the Kingdom of Drakkar Wiki.

===== Page Naming =====

  * Use **lowercase with underscores**: ''goblin_king'', ''nork_5'', ''fire_sword''
  * Place pages in the correct namespace: ''monsters:'', ''items:'', ''locations:'', ''quests:'', ''classes:'', ''races:'', ''guides:'', ''mechanics:''
  * Use the in-game name where possible

===== Page Structure =====

Every content page should follow this order:

  - **Title** — ''%%====== Page Name ======%%''
  - **Metadata line** — ''%%//Category: Monster | Region: Aleria | Difficulty: Intermediate//%%''
  - **Quick Facts infobox** (optional) — wrap plugin right box with key stats
  - **Intro paragraph** — one-sentence summary in bold: "**Page Name** is a ..."
  - **Content sections** — Description, Location, Combat, Drops, etc.
  - **See Also** — links to related pages (always last section)

===== Metadata Format =====

The first line after the title should be an italicized metadata line:

  //Category: Monster | Region: Nork | Difficulty: Intermediate//

**Valid categories:** Monster, Item, Location, Quest, Class, Race, Guide, Mechanic

**Valid regions:** Aleria, Nork, Cobrahn, Maeling, Cob Dungeon, Nameless, Underworld, General

**Valid difficulties:** Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert

===== Infobox Pattern =====

Use the wrap plugin for a right-floated Quick Facts box:

  <WRAP right box 280px>
  === Quick Facts ===
  ^ Field ^ Value ^
  | **Region** | Nork |
  | **Difficulty** | Intermediate |
  </WRAP>

===== See Also Section =====

Every page should end with a See Also section containing 2-5 related links:

  ===== See Also =====

    * [[namespace:page|Display Name]] -- brief reason for the link
    * [[namespace:page|Display Name]] -- brief reason for the link

===== Tables =====

Use DokuWiki table syntax for structured data:

  ^ Column 1 ^ Column 2 ^ Column 3 ^
  | Data | Data | Data |

===== Links =====

  * **Internal links:** ''%%[[namespace:page|Display Name]]%%''
  * **External links:** ''%%[[https://example.com|Display Name]]%%''
  * **Broken links** appear in red — fix them when you spot them

===== Source Attribution =====

If content comes from an external source, add a blockquote at the bottom of the relevant section:

  > Source: [[https://example.com|Source Name]]

===== Images =====

  * Upload to the matching namespace in the media manager
  * Use reasonable sizes: ''%%{{:namespace:image.png?200|}}%%'' for inline images
  * For monster/item images, 80-120px width is typical

===== Templates =====

Start new pages from these templates:

  * [[wiki:template_monster|Monster Template]]
  * [[wiki:template_item|Item Template]]
  * [[wiki:template_location|Location Template]]
  * [[wiki:template_quest|Quest Template]]
  * [[wiki:template_class|Class Template]]
  * [[wiki:template_race|Race Template]]

Copy the template content into your new page and fill in the brackets.
