Walkthroughs on the Wiki - wanting some details

I've seen that Walkthroughs were wanted for the games on the Wiki. Well, what exactly type of format do you want us to do it in? What would be an appropriate page title? What exactly do you want to see us doing? And I think there was something mentioned about being multi-paged...?

I was going to start one a little while ago, but I don't know what to do (Wiki-wise).

So yeah, help please. Thanks.

re: Walkthroughs on the Wiki - wanting some details

Ok so from this thread: http://www.neoseeker.com/forums/39502/t1177833-best-practice-walkthrough-wiki-page-for-each-game/

Page Title for Wiki Walkthroughs

Format:

<Game Name> Walkthrough

Some example titles:

Assassins Creed Walkthrough
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures Walkthrough
etc

If a few members can get together and decide on a walkthrough they want to work on, and then create the page, then link it here I can try to create some initial text and sections in there to give you an idea of how I imagine the walkthroughs would look.

Remember to do the following:
  • Link to the Walkthrough from the Hub page
  • Link from the walkthrough back to the hub page

If anyone has a better idea of how to do the walkthroughs please post here.

re: Walkthroughs on the Wiki - wanting some details

So we need a page for the walkthrough which has to link back to the game's page and the game needs to link to it, right?

As long as we keep it looking clean and informative, there's no specific format to follow, right?

I'm going to start one here in a few minutes, and I hope I'll be doing this right.

Thanks for clearing some of that up.

re: Walkthroughs on the Wiki - wanting some details

I think I have a fair idea of the concept you are looking for Red, I'll have a crack at this and link it here to see if we are thinking on the same wavelength, of course it will only be a standard attempt as I know others will contribute upon it with me as well but from overlooking the replies I don't think many have grasped the concept you are after...yet

re: Walkthroughs on the Wiki - wanting some details

I'm looking forward to seeing some of these walkthrough style wiki pages and informative pages that help with actual gameplay. Let us all know what you've got ShadowJ when you're ready
