Editing Style Guide

The Editing Style Guide outlines a standard of clean and consistent formatting for all articles on the Kim Kardashian Hollywood Wiki. When editing on the Wiki, keep the following guidelines in mind.

General Style Guidelines
When creating a new page or editing an article, note the following:
 * If you have never edited on a Wikia before, learn more about coding and formatting here.
 * English is the official language of this Wiki. Other languages are currently not supported.
 * Use proper spelling. Kim Kardashian: Hollywood is an American game, so please adhere to Standard American English spelling when writing (e.g. "color" and "favorite" ).
 * Use title case ( "Kim Kardashian" ) when referring to characters, goals, locations and buildings. Sentence case may be used only when it is used in the game (e.g. "The Smell of Success" ).
 * Use only facts, not opinions.

Images
When adding an image to the Wiki, note the following:


 * Give your files a descriptive name. Images with file names such as "IMG 124.jpg" will be deleted by an administrator.
 * Before uploading an image, check to see if the Wikia already has a similar image. Duplicate images will be deleted by an administrator.
 * Images should be in .jpg or .png format to ensure faster loading of pages.
 * Try to create images according to these specifications:
 * All images should measure 240 by 240 pixels with a 1px solid black border (example).
 * Exceptions are:
 * Achievements: 95 by 85 pixels with a 1px solid black border (example).
 * Building Exteriors: 665 by 675 pixels with a 1px solid black border (example).

Page Editing
When editing specific pages on the Wiki, follow the following steps:

Buildings

 * Social Buildings: buildings where you can go on dates;
 * Work Buildings: buildings where you can complete projects and goals;
 * Businesses: buildings you can own and make money from;
 * Miscellaneous Buildings: buildings that don't fall into any of the other categories.
 * A building may fall into two categories. In that case, fill in its primary category. For example, Panino is both a Social Building and a Work Building, but because it's a restaurant, it's primarily a Social Building.
