SilentBlue:Editing tips

Revision as of 16:46, 2 March 2021 by imported>Jack980517

This page describes some recommendations with page editing. While they're not strong enough to be considered "policies" - you can still do it however you like as long as the final product conforms to the expected format - they're considered "best practices" that would make page editing much easier.

Song pages

  • Use existing song pages as a guide for what to do, and don't be afraid to use them as templates. If you're making a page for, say, a VARIETY genre song that has appeared in both maimai (pre-DX) and CHUNITHM, base your page on a song page that fits those qualities.

Areas

Info source:


  • For stuff before the table, copy from existing sections, and modify the info accordingly.
    • Exercise caution when writing the ending date of time-limited Areas. Since DX PLUS, Areas end at 4:00 UTC+9 on the next day of the date shown in-game, because the daily maintenance is performed at 4:00~7:00 UTC+9. The Chinese wiki writes the end date as the next day of the date shown in-game. SilentBlue writes the end date as it's shown in-game (i.e. minus one day from what's written on the Chinese wiki).
  • Copy the table from the FC2 wiki, and paste into the textbox at excel2wiki, and click convert without changing the default options.
  • Copy the result to clipboard, and paste it into your favorite text editor.
  • Use "find and replace" and translate the item types.
  • Discard the table header generated by excel2wiki, and copy it from existing sections of other Areas. (This should be faster than manually changing them from Japanese.)
  • Link the songs to their romanized page titles.
  • Copy what's in your text editor to the Areas page.
  • Type the bonus songs, and put the list in a {{Collapsible}}.
  • In the おすすめつあーメンバー (recommended Tour Members, aka Tour Members who are good at this Area) section, if there are any Tour Members not from this Area, write about it as a bullet point before the table.
  • Done.
