User blog:Kevsuc/Guidelines for creating a Treasure page


 * This blog post was originally posted on this thread.

Below are some quick guides on creating a page about Treasures. This guidelines is not a rule that I personally create, but it was inherited from user to user, further developments have been much improving the standard of an article. As future adjustments are allowed, these guidelines are not final but contributors are advised to keep following it.

A blank template (a source code) is supplied at the bottom of the blog post so you can copy and paste easily when a new treasure is released.

TreasureInfobox
Infobox are helpful and vital as it holds the place for important statistics about the treasure. You need to switch into source editor before you can create the infobox with TreasureInfobox template. TreasureInfobox consists of:

Title - Fill with the treasure name. Please format the spelling to follow the Treasure Book. Pink Choco Cookie's Handmade Chocolate Set Choco handmade set

Image - Fill with the treasure's image and file format. You can upload an image here and do your best. When uploading, make sure that the treasure's name is easy to recognize. Do not use random letters and numbers. Secret Admirer's Fresh Vegetable Juice.png Screenshot_2015_12_31.jpg

Grade - You can simply fill with one of these available templates:.

Power+ - Fill with "Yes" or "No".

Possible Treasure Evolutions (Evolutions) - Fill this column with the name of evolved treasure created from the treasure. If more than one is possible, you can use a breakline to separate between lines. Don't forget to add " " between the treasure's name to create the link. Yes - Valiant Firecracker Jelly - Burning Heat Infused Jellyco

Collection Method (How) - You can shortly explain how to earn the treasure, as described in the Treasure Book. Upgrading Devil Cookie to Level 8 Great Treasure Chest and Supreme Treasure Chest Lucky Time (event) Reach Level 70

Release Date - The release date should be a full date, and if you don't know just leave it blank. 31 December 2015 December 31, 2015 31-12-15 Dec 31, '15

Skill - The Skill Effect section may still happen to appear in some older treasure pages. Starting in 18 December 2014, skill section will be removed, and now placed outside the infobox.

Article Body
The main paragraph consists of:

Introductory Paragraph - You can summary the treasure's history, skill effect, or other content related to the treasure here, just like what you see in Wikipedia. Don't forget to bold the title and any aliases (such as former name, informal name, etc). This section can also be used to re-describe the skill effect which has been unclear or additional effects that is necessary to be stated (for example, see Golden Magic Flower Pot).

Equipped Effect - This section is for non-Power+ treasures only. Fill the equipped effect exactly as stated in Treasure Book, even when it has incorrect spelling/grammar and unclear information. You can explain the mistake later in the introductory paragraph or trivia. If the treasure has more than one effect, you can use the bullet list with an asterisk (*) at the start of each effect. Example:
 * Minute Magnetic Aura
 * With upgrades 120-170 extra points for all Jellies

Passive Effect - This section is working exactly as Equipped Effect, but only for Treasures with Power+.

Description - Fill this section with the in-game description of the treasure you can find by tapping the treasure in the Treasure Book. Don't forget to make the description in italic.

Statistics - You don't have to worry about how to design table, for the convenience just copy and paste the source code below. You just need to fill in the "skill effect" part of our statistics table.


 * - (marking a new row)
 * +1 (level)
 * 1500 extra points for destroying obstacles (skill effect)
 * 17,000 (Common Upgrade cost)

Article Bottom
Trivia - This section is optional. You can fill this section with any interesting or amusing facts about the treasure, unrelated to the treasure's performance. This treasure was the first treasure released in 2015. This treasure is the only Power+ treasure obtained from upgrading a cookie.

Gallery - This section is also optional, and needed when you're about to include a related image supporting the article. The guide for creating a Gallery is here.

Category - Category helps managing articles and searching related items easier. There are many ways you can create a category. However, if you're in source editor, for editing convenience please put the category tag at the bottom of an article. There are two types of category tag:
 * Tags for stating the treasure grade, such as for S-grade treasures.
 * Sub-categories specifying an attribute of the treasure. See the complete list in this thread.
 * for treasures with Power+ effect.
 * if the treasure can only be obtained from an event.

References - You can make a footnote or inserting a citation source, and showing them up at the bottom of the article. Click here for the guide.
