Next Blog: This Wiki and You Part 2- The Advanced Guide to the Wiki

This is the latest guide, you saw the last one and now the Basics of editing but how exactly can you input them into next pages? This guide will explain how. If you have not read the first one, be sure to click HERE

Templates

You can't avoid Templates around the Wiki, they're everywhere, whether they contain Revamp Tags, Spoiler tags, Stub tags and even Images in Need Tags will not make a difference. We use these Templates to keep order on the Wiki. This part of the Guide will explain to you about the Different Types of Templates you may experience across the Wiki and if you're unlucky, some of the types you NEVER want to experience during your stay.

The Normal Revamp Template

This is the normal revamp template, this indicates whether an article needs to be rewritten to a higher degree of quality and is also used when an appropriate template can't really be found. Only few articles may seem to have them but just take note that some may seem to be perfectly fine but they may be missing a chunk of necessary information. To add this to an article, the code for it is {{Revamp}}.

The Stub Template

The Stub means an article is small, not much info is known and is in need of expansion when info is available. There are many articles in need of expansion on this wiki and YOU, the editor with all the knowledge and skills learned from my first tutorial can see to it that we have less of this articles. But, on rare occasions, if one is in need, add this template by using the code {{stub}}.

The Spoiler Template

This one should be pretty obvious but just in case, I'll explain it to you. This template means that the page will contain Spoilers. Now, although this is rare, for those who don't know what spoilers are, spoilers are basically pieces of information from new or upcoming releases that a discerning reader might wish to avoid.. Simple enough? Anyway, if you see a page that needs this template, just add {{Spoilerhd}}.

The Image in Need Template

This template indicates that an article is in need of images. Quite abit of articles need it, if you can find any HIGH QUALITY images then that would be appreciated. If you find a low quality image, don't bother to upload it because there's no point when someone can just easily obtain a normal high quality image. If you see a page that needs this, place the code {{Imageneed}}

The Sourceless Template

Here we seek to reveal the danger of blind faith This article, or section of article, contains information which has yet to be sourced, or is in need of having its sources updated. Please source any information currently within the article, or any new additions that you plan to make. Failure to do so will result in the article being deleted.

The Sourceless Template means that the article is yet to be sourced and contrary to popular belief, the AC:R MP Beta is NOT a reliable source and neither is leaked gameplay footage, we do not know what will change during the time between now and the game's release, so to those who keep adding the category to the Courtesan page or any other using AC:R MP Beta or leaked gameplay as the source. STOP. To add this template, use this code. {{Sourceless}}

For More information on Sourcing check here: Assassin's Creed Wiki:Sourcing

The Assassify Template

This basically means that an article contains references from outside the Assassin's Creed Series and needs to be changed so that it suits the AC series and makes no contradictions to what it states. So if in real life someone had died 1532 but in the game, someone had died in 1531 but the article says 1532. The template would stay until the info is made correct to the AC series and doesn't contradict it. To add this template, typing in {{Assassify}}.

The Normal Working Revamp Template

I will lead mankind into a new world! This article is currently being reworked by TheSt0ryTeller in order to achieve a better status. We ask that edits to this article are only minor or grammatical in nature until this warning is removed, in order to not disrupt the major revamp. Should you wish to participate in the revamp, please contact the editor at work.

This means an article in need of revamp is being revamped by a user. I used a normal revamp template with my name as you can see and if you wish to attempt a revamp as such then I suggest you use this code: {{Working Revamp|Usernamehere}}.

The Apprentice Revamp Template

This means an Apprentice (mentioned in my last tutorial) is currently revamping an article as apart of the Initiative. There work is NOT meant to be trifled with unless taken up with them. Once it's removed and the article has been evaluated then you can feel free to edit without any troubles. Only apprentices are allowed to add this template and the code for the future apprentices is {{Apprentice Revamp|Username|Master}}.

GA and FA in Vote Templates

The GA and FA Vote templates mean that an article is being voted for GA Status or FA Status. There are requirements for both these articles which have to be met in order to pass the vote by Staff. These articles tend to have an efficient writing style which the reader can understand and yet be intrigued by. If you choose to nominate an Article to GA status or FA Status the codes are: {{NomG}} {{NomF}}

GA or FA Removal Vote Template

This is the GA or FA Removal in progress template. The basics of this is when a Staff member finds a GA or FA Status article which is not worthy of it. They then present the Article and vote for whether or not it should be removed. Once done this template is removed and that article either remains GA or FA, or loses its status. The code for this is {{NomRvk}}.

WikiProject Absolute Symbiosis Template

This article is within the scope of WikiProject Memories,
an attempt to create a detailed and informative
resource for all the existing missions in the
Assassin's Creed series

This Template means that the article is apart of the Wiki Project known as Absolute Symbiosis which is a project dedicated to listing all the existing missions in the Assassin's Creed series, in an organized and helpful manner. To add this code, type in {{WPMemories}}.

WikiProject Timeline Template

This article is within the scope of WikiProject
Timeline, an attempt to build comprehensive and
detailed Featured articles about all major events
throughout the Assassin's Creed series

Timeline is a WikiProject intended to list all Assassin's Creed events and battles in a encyclopedic, historical and non-player way. This will show the events not from the View of Desmond or the player but from the view of the time itself. To add this template, type in {{WPTimeline}}.

WikiProject: Blood of a Templar Template

This article is within the scope of WikiProject Targets,
an attempt to build comprehensive and detailed
Featured articles about all Assassination Targets
throughout the Assassin's Creed series

Targets is a WikiProject, dedicated to promoting all Assassination Target articles to Featured Status. These targets are targets spread across all games such as Altaïr's Chronicles, Bloodlines, Assassin's Creed I, Assassin's Creed II, Assassin's Creed: Discoveries, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and Assassin's Creed: Revelations. To add this template, type in {{WPtargets}}.
