* Naming of a page should use the full name of the subject unless an abriviation is more commonly used - for example NC should not be a name page, the page should be called Neocron.
 
* The first letter of all names should be capitalised, any subesquent letters should be lower case, unless in a second word.
 
* The uses of slashes in names to indicate a sub section is prohibited, instead think to add it to a category
 
* Any pages to do with the day to day running of the NCwiki website need to be prefixed with Project:<page name> to give ease of linking.
 
 
 
==Page Conventions==
 
 
 
* Pages should not be created to promote '''old''' or '''current''' neocron servers.
 
* Pages should not be created to promote '''old''' or '''current''' neocron players.
 
* Pages should not be created to promote '''old''' neocron clans.
 
* Pages created to promote '''current''' neocron clans must contain relevant information. Relevance is rewieved on a case to case basis by Nc-Wiki admins.
 
** All clan based pages should be within the Clan: namespace - Admins will move them if they are not.
 
 
 
==Language Conventions==
 
 
 
* This site is in '''UK-ENGLISH''' and please dont get upset if you are edited to change to UK english - colour not color!
 
 
 
==Picture Conventions==
 
 
 
* All pictures should be in the JPG format for ease of placement.
 
* Please try to remove the hud before taking the picture. This  can be archived with the command '''/set ctrl_renderhud 0|1'''
