Dear Editors,
We appreciate the hard work you have delivered so far, and are hoping you'll continue doing so. Without you, our community will still be wandering the Outback without realising that it's Ted Selly whistling at them!
As our group of Editors is growing, I wanted to provide a compact list of all the templates, and methods we are currently using, so we all stay on the same page, and our wiki will maintain a uniform format.
Please don't let this scare you away, I will make the necessary edits to any previous edit if needed, but the more you use it properly, the less work I will have to do afterwards ;)!
If anyone has any additional information/suggestions to add to this page, feel free to adjust as you deem fit.
Summary
General Layout
- Every sentence starts with a capital letter, and ends with a punctuation mark;
- When inputting values above a thousand, we use a comma as a separator (e.g. 1,000 ; 1,320,500 ; 3,500);
- NPC names or Item names start with a capital letter (e.g. John, Franklyn, Tin Ore, Crude Furnace);
- Please only uploading missing Item images, and upload them as 128x128 files with the correct file name "Inv_Item_Name_Here.png" (e.g. Inv_Copper_Pickaxe.png).
Price within a table
We are using the following template to display the price with the Dinks icon in front.
{{TableDinks|<value>}}
 900

Creating specific item page
For specific item pages, like Tin Ore, we are using the following template:
{{subst:ItemData}}
This will make an editable copy of the Stone page, to use this, create a new page, type in the code mentioned above, and save the page, then edit it to adjust the information.
| Type | Examples |
|---|---|
| Resource | Stone, Tin Ore, Palm Tree Plank, etc |
| Processing | Campfire, Furnace, Gacha Machine, etc |
| Consumable | Bush Lime, Bottled Brush, etc |
| Tool | Copper Pickaxe, Copper Fishing Rod, etc |
| Licence | Mining Licence, Farming Licence, etc |
| Vehicle | Rowboat, Tractor, Gliders, etc |
| Source | Examples
Please add a link to the source. |
| Skill | Gathering method? (Tin Ore = Mining, Meat = Hunting, etc) |
| Vendor | Where do you buy it from? (Basic Pickaxe = John's Goods, Animal Feeder = Irwin's Barn, etc) |
| Crafting | Anything that requires to be crafted or processed requires the correct machine (Tin Bar = Furnace / Crude Furnace, Cooked Bush Lime = Campfire / BBQ, etc). |
Linking an item
Use the following code when providing ingredients for a recipe, processing method, or mentioning an item in a description (e.g. Tin_Ore / Stone Grinder):
{{Link|<Correct ItemName>|icon=Inv_<ItemName>.png}}

This is mostly used to display Buffs in a large table overview as in Resources.
