Any deviation or breaking of these editing tips will result in a ban (they are rules)

jobs[]

if you are new to Wiki, two of the easiest, but still needed jobs that this Wiki needs are:

make sure there are photos on every page
make sure that every page has been categorized
- do not add random categories to pages
- check with an Admin before you make a new category
- we are now putting categories on ALL images that are uploaded: see other images for categories needed for the type of image you are uploading, or ask an admin

templates[]

do not use Wikipedia templates for height or weight here, they are not set up here
Template:Birth date and age is now set up to use on wrestler pages
templates should link the year, city, state and country
- it should not link the rest of the date (day or month)

Tips[]

do not use wysiswyg editor to edit: it messes with page formats
keep a consistent page layout for articles of the same type
- the main focus is on PPV and Events: feel free to clean up events, but please stick to the established site format
put the six required tabs (General, Image gallery, Logos, Magazine covers, Merchandise, Toys) on top of wrestler articles

copying info from Wikipedia is discouraged: the intent is to do more than clone Wikipedia
wrestler measurements should be in both imperial and metric: height in feet (ft) and meters (m) and weight in pounds (lbs) and kilograms (kg)
don't hesitate to ask questions to the administrators: Wagnike2, Dean27 or Latin915.
if you upload a new image, add the image to the correct page with an appropriate file name (do NOT just call it 1234jbjdkbhkdjh or John Cena.1 for example) and check the name is not already in use on the site before you upload the image.
any non-administrator who moves a page without receiving permission from an administrator first (ask) will be blocked: moving pages may causes errors on pages that admins may need to spend time correcting
