Forum:Set format for creature pages?

Hi :) When I came to this wiki, the first thing I noticed was that the authors of different sets of pages all had their different organization styles. All the information is there, but sometimes I feel frustrated with the inconsistency in the site. I suggest that there should be a single format for every creature's page, so that the wiki looks more organized.

I was thinking we could do something similar to the Dragon Cave Wiki's format - a short paragraph about the creature at the top, followed by sections on the description and sprite sequences, plus spriter credits. I based the format of my Autumn King page off this template. Dw1111's Mantisaur (P1 version) page is similar to this, too.

Another alternative could be something similar to the Magistream Wiki's style - placing each stage in a separate category, then adding additional information at the bottom. Personally I prefer Dragon Cave's template because it suits Project Nyoka better.

A third idea would be to lump both sprites and descriptions in the same table cell, but I already tried it earlier and it looks…weird. o.O I just want to throw this out there, though.

Any thoughts? :)

Yeah, I was kinda trying to do something like that with the Aineku page, but I kinda had to get some sleep. XD Next thing I know, I wake up and there have been all these changes to the wiki. :P

Ooh, I saw some of the pages you edited and they look really nice :) Maybe that could be the standard format for the site.

Oh, good, glad you think so. ^^ I hope so, I don't want someone to have to go through and change everything, especially since I'm almost done. XD
