Talk:Comprehensive Guide

Any relevant information pertaining to Civclassic mechanics and gameplay belongs in the Comprehensive Guide. Nevertheless, article standards are not lowered and superfluous content is unacceptable.

= General guidelines =


 * Use references to cite sources (eg. A plugin readme)
 * Do not segregate content by plugin for no reason. If multiple plugins change the same gameplay aspect it is often better to group the content under one section (However, do try to use footnotes to show what plugin does what - this can be helpful for readers interested in finding external sources).
 * Use and fix  and   messages.
 * Plugins may not cleanly fit inside a core comprehensive guide section, , , . However if most of a plugin or mechanic is relevent, it is preferable to place it in respective category then in.

= Completeness = Sections are ranked roughly by the proportion of pertinent information filled in.

 * Links from one part of the Comprehensive Guide to another part of the Comprehensive Guide should be distinguishable from links to elsewhere on the Wiki. e.g.

To Do

 * Could use a section on superfriends, modmail and how administration works.
