Editing Guidelines
Please adhere to these guidelines in order to keep the wiki professional and clean:
- All information shall be confirmed from ANY of the following credible sources:
- Content published in the past or current version of Garden Tower Defense Game.
- Garden Tower Defense Discord from the Updates / Relevant (..) channels.
- The wiki shall reflect the current state of the game. Rumors or unreleased content shall not be used or published on the wiki.
- Exception: Unreleased content can be published ONLY IF the information is confirmed by one of the credible sources listed.
- Follow English formality Rules (e.g., Proper capitalization, no use of first-person, limit the use of second-person, etc.)
- Do not add unnecessary categories to pages. It's strongly recommended to only add articles to existing categories!
- Fix red links.
- Red links are links that are addressed are redirects but are redirected to a page that does not exist.
- Make sure that everything is grammatically correct and that spelling and punctuation are accurate.
- Make sure all item names are in-game names and are properly capitalized.
Proper nouns refer to specific names, places, or groups.
- Example: That is a tower. This tower is called the Tomato Plant.
- In this example, "Tomato Plant" is the specific name of the tower, so it is capitalized. The word tower simply describes what it is and is therefore not a proper noun and not capitalized unless it starts a sentence.
- Example: That is a tower. This tower is called the Tomato Plant.
- The first occurrence of the page's subject must be bold. All subsequent occurrences shall be normal text.
- e.g., The Beehive is a godly is a godly tower in Garden Tower Defense. The Beehive is yellow and has bees around them. . [...]
- Do not edit the same page multiple times in a row in a short amount of time.
- Use Show Preview" feature to preview edit before publishing edit.
- Write correctly-spelled grammatical full sentences.
- Watch out for those homophones, subject-verb agreement issues, and compound adjectives.
- Add a summary to every edit made, truthfully. It is courteous to let others know what you added, removed, or modified.
