This page outlines how the pages on the wiki should be organized.

General article organization

An article is a main namespace page explaining the content of, or closely related to Undertale AUs. All main namespace pages are considered articles with the exception of the Main Page.

The first paragraph (introduction) of an article should be a short description of its topic, stating what it is. Empty sections are to be omitted from the article. The first mentioning of the article's topic is always bolded.

Article header

TITLE

{{Title}} is a template used to change the title that is displayed on the article from the actual article name.

Templates

The various templates, as found here.

Tocright

{{Tocright}} is a template that puts the Table of Contents to the right. It is used on pages where the Table of Contents is too large and putting it on the right side does not obstruct the other content. Pages containing infoboxes in the header mustn't use this template as it will push the infobox to the bottom.

Page body

Page body is the main content of the article, containing all the information about the topic. Sectioning of the body is done depending on the type of the page. More information can be found below.

Article footer

Trivia

Trivia sections are bullet-point lists located at the end of the main content of an article containing interesting, little-known facts that cannot be incorporated into an article effectively. Trivia takes the lowest priority, meaning any information should be attempted to be added to the main text before being placed in trivia. If several trivia points can be lumped into a category, do it. (ex: if Sans's trivia mentions there is a connection to Gaster 3 times, add a "Gaster" subsection in Relationships). Trivia must be true.

References

References and citations are placed at the end of an article, above navboxes but below Trivia.

Navboxes

Navboxes are templates used for navigation. They contain links to articles related to the article they are placed on. Navboxes are meant to be placed below all sections. List of all navboxes can be found here.

Categories

Categories are displayed at the bottom bar on pages and are useful for grouping information as well as navigation. Note that some templates auto-add categories to an article, so additionally adding categories to an article is unnecessary. Adding irrelevant categories to articles is prohibited by the wiki policy.

AU Pages

AU pages should use {{Infobox AU}} template as an infobox and the respecting Navbox to the Type as a navbox. They all need to be in the AUs category as well as in the subcategories of it.

AU Pages will look different depending on the AU Type it is categorized in.


"I've noticed that some users have placed Introduction, as found on Page Organization, as it's own separate heading. I'd like to notify all still doing this that this action is false, and that the introduction is the paragraph, or set of paragraphs, that come before any other heading. On the Page Organization policy page, you'll see that Introduction is not marked with heading marks, so it should not be labeled on the article."

Special Cases

As with everything, there are special cases, whether implied or solidly written.

Animation Medium

If the medium of an AU is animation, then the Story header is replaced with Episodes, followed by the name of each episode that links to where you can watch it in an additional header. Within this section should be a summary of the episode.

Below Episodes would be a new heading, Videos, which is where any videos uploaded to the wiki will be.

Community Shared

The articles for Community Shared AUs should only contain information on the AU from the original author. Any additional information on the AU created after the AU becomes community shared that is not from the original author should not appear on the page, and should instead appear on a separate article detailing that specific take.

Files

All files should be given a sensible name that describes the content, the AU it is from, and be consistent. A good file name would be: "[AU NAME] - [CONTENT OF IMAGE]".

Example
Undertale Rho - Sans in Judgement Hall

All files on the wiki must be credited to the original posting. No original files are allowed here, please post them on DeviantArt, Tumblr, or some other site before adding them here.

Credit must be given in an image's caption, stylized as "Created by [ARTIST]".
Credit must also be given on the file's page with the inclusion of a link back to the Original Post (OP), stylized as "Created by [ARTIST]". The [ARTIST] must contain hypertext linking directing back to the OP.

Example
Created by [https://www.deviantart.com/alphasaith/art/Undertale-Rho-661811202 Alphasaith].
should give
Created by Alphasaith.

This would be put on the Undertale Rho Splash.
