Midnight Texas Wiki

The Manual of Style is a format layout that we here at Midnight, Texas Wiki designed in effort to provide visual representation on how each page created on this wiki should be presented.

Articles

When creating a page, all users are expected to follow the guideline down below:

  • The first appearance of the article's title on the page should be in bold text.
  • Character, Episode, Location, Species, etc., articles should contain relevant and meaningful quotes about the article in question.
  • If the article is incomplete, then a {{Stub}} template should be added.
  • Words that are titles of additional articles within the wiki should be linked only on their first occurrence in that section.
  • Minor Characters that have appeared three or more times should have an individual article; other wise, they are contained on the Minor Character page.
  • Guest Characters are typically given individual articles unless otherwise noted at an Administrator's discretion.
  • Any deviations should first be consulted with an admin.

Character Articles

Character Infobox

  • The infobox should appear at the top of the page, and should only contain canon information, i.e., information stated or presented on-screen, or confirmed off-screen depending on the source. If you are unsure of a section, please leave it blank.
  • If the information provided fails to meet the standards required then it has no place on the infobox, and therefore will be removed.

Article Structure

  • The first instance of a character's name should be in bold text, (e.g. Olivia Charity)
  • Only information from the Midnight, Texas series is to be included in articles, unless it relates to the subject at hand.
  • Each character's individual episode recap is to begin with the episode named linked in italics and centered by quotation marks (e.g. In "Bad Moon Rising").

Sections

Each character article should contain the following sections in the following order:

  • A brief summary in reference to what the article is about. This section comes before any other and can be expanded to include an encompassing (albeit short) season summary of key events.
Olivia Charity is an upcoming assassin in Midnight, Texas.
  • Backstory — A detailed description of the characters life leading up to the start of the series. This section typically contains scenes shown as flashbacks or some details described about past events that are not shown. These events should be referenced with {{Ep Ref}} and the episode number identifier.
  • Throughout Midnight, Texas — An all-inclusive recap of the characters' appearance per episode. Multiple seasons are contained in tabs. This section can be excluded for characters that only make appearances within flashbacks. Characters that are only mentioned and not shown do not get summaries.
  • Personality — Description of the character's personality.
  • Skills — A listing of the character's notable skills, whether it be witchcraft or hand to hand combat, etc. Key moments should be referenced.
  • Appearances — A listing of each character's episode appearances that are to be neatly added to the {{Season One Appearances}} and/or {{Season Two Appearances}} template(s).
  • Trivia — A section with trivial facts about the character whether about the show or their novel counterpart.
  • Gallery — An organized display of character promotional images or screencaptures throughout the series. Multiple seasons are contained in tabs and separated by episodes in which the character appeared. When they do not appear, the episode should be removed.
  • References — A section where references can be found from reliable outside sources or from specific episodes.
