Chapter page layout

Article header

First line
[[File:Chap#_cover.jpg|thumb|<center>Cover art for Chapter #</center>]]
Second line
= Chapter Title =
As an example, for Chapter 8 the Chapter Title is In Full Bloom.
So the line should read: = In Full Bloom = using Header 1 markup (=), replacing Chapter Title with the actual title.
  • In a break with policy, every word of the title may be capitalized, following the author's style.
Third line
<sup><i>Pages ''first'' through ''last'' inclusive. Total pages: ##</i></sup>
This provides basic information about the chapter. Fill in the data as appropriate.
Fourth line
Leave it blank to prevent the ChapterNav gadget from crowding the header.
Fifth line
{{ChapterNav|#}}
This is the ChapterNavigation gadget — see {{ChapterNav|<#>}} for further information — followed immediately by the cover image code. The naming convention of the image is required. The image comes directly from the comic and should be renamed to match the filename format.
Replace the # with the chapter number.

Body of content

Starting at the sixth line, this is the meat and potatoes of the article. It is a detailed write-up of the chapter that should follow closely to the narrative, staying in present tense except where required by the narrative. It should at a minimum touch on the high (and low) points of the chapter and any lore that's revealed. It should follow the story page by page, adding references as each page of the comic is covered. See Reference layout for formatting the footnotes.
As a flourish, the first word should be formatted '''bold'''. If the first word is only one or two letters, the first two words are used. Leave a blank line at the end of the page body (hit Enter twice).

Last six lines

These six lines need to be entered exactly as shown. This is the style for Chapter pages of this wiki. For other wikis, the fourth line is optional or might say things like Index or Footnotes. The fifth line depends on the wiki. Wikipedia, for instance, uses several templates, depending on usage. For this wiki, the {{Reflist}} template is now in use.
