User:Lesoria/Sandbox/Character Layout

Latest revision as of 20:00, 10 March 2006

When I first started out with filling out Malon's page, I didn't worry about the layout of the page because my initial goal was to get down information about her. Once that was done, I looked at Anju's page, and copied the layout of information from there.

At this moment, this page is meant to be an easy reference for me of a standard character page's layout.

[edit] Description

If the character appears in only one game, there will be no subsections. If the character appears in multiple games, there's an Overall subsection which tells their information which stays true throughout the games, then a subsection for each game.

Zelda's description includes both visual appearance and psychologic attributes.

Anju's Majora's Mask subsection also lists a subsubsection of her Clock Cycle. Is this the proper place for the Clock Cycle?

[edit] Biography

Similair to the Description section in that is may have an Overall subsection and a subsection for each game.

Rather than telling about how a person appears or acts, the biography covers their life, their history, and what happens to them within the game.

It's a matter of debate whether this information should appear in the Description section.

[edit] Miscellaneous Notes

If a character appears in multiple games, this section is split into subsections.

This are miscellanous notes about things a character does, or what's been said about this character.

[edit] Relevant Quotes

Broken into per-game subsections as necessary.

In-game quotes from or about this character. These are the building blocks to much of the information about the character.

[edit] Translations

The character's name in various languages, found easily in the translations category.

[edit] See Also

Links to related pages. May be broken up into per-game subsection as necessary.
