ADSIC:Manual of Style
From AcaDec Scores and Information Center
 |
This is an extension of Wikipedia's Manual of Style, which is more inclusive but doesn't cover ADSIC specific things. |
We can't have every page with it's own unique look. That's why ADSIC has this Manual of Style. Mostly you don't need to diverge from this and won't, but if you ever have a question about what should be on a page or what it should look like check the perfect look of a page below.

[edit] Tables
The best kind of table looks like this. It is sortable by javascript, uses a default format, and is easy to edit, and the colors have been preselected. This format should be used on all tables.

[edit] Infoboxes
All state infoboxes use the same colors. All national infoboxes use the same colors. All userpage infoboxes use the same colors. I don't have time to explain how to use them here.
[edit] Categories
Make them. Use them. Love them. Except on score articles, gilbot will add them.

[edit] On Templates
Templates are nice, and can be used well in the right context. ADSIC uses the ambox format for most editing boxes (the majority) of templates, which can be used by placing the code of an existing template at the front of an article. Use them often to clear up disputes, merge articles, fix problems, etc.. Don't make a template unless you have made one before and have an understanding of what you're doing.
