Editing Guidelines
One of the goals of this wiki was to start over from a clean slate, as such, editors should follow these guidelines to ensure everything is in order:
- No inline css (style="......") unless absolutely necessary.
- No customizing the colors of tables, to make sure everything works with any future themeing.
- Keep images to a minimum, host space is limited:
- One set of Item Icons, following the style of World and Rise, for now (SVG Format).
- One set of weapon and armor renders for each: the entirety of 1st and 2nd generation and Frontier, Tri, P3rd, 3U, 4U, GU, World Iceborne and Rise Sunbreak.
- Only one render per monster unless the design changes drastically between generations (Rathalos, Diablos).
- Only one screenshot per Location (for now), unless the design changes drastically between generations.
- Monster Hunter Now-related pages should use World Iceborne renders and icons where possible.
- Any other spin-off game, such as Monster Hunter Online, Monster Hunter Explore, Felyne Diary or Monstie Drop are to be worked on once the core games have been fleshed out.
- Monster Hunter Frontier content must use official names when possible and clean, direct translations otherwise, do not marry the wiki to a single translation project.
File Nomenclatures
Following the same as the old wiki, files should be named in the following way:
[Game,Generation]-[Subject] [Render, Screenshot, Icon] [Number].[Extension]
- Game or Generation: Shorthand for each game (MH1, MHFU, MHP3), or broad generations (1stGen, 2ndGen, 3rdGen).
- Subject: Monster name, weapon class, locale name.
- Render, Screenshot or Icon: Depends on the image.
- Number: Starting from 0000.
- Extension: File extension.
