==== Template ====
 
* Use the [[:Template:Quest|quest template]] as a guide
 
* Take a look to a finished quest page and use it as reference
 
 
 
==== Content: Header ====
 
* For difficulty, use the following text to describe the difficulty stars: "1 star", "2 stars", "3 stars", "4 stars"
 
* For quest giver add the NPC link
 
* For location, specify place and region using links for both
 
* For next/previous quest, use the quest link or the "None" text if doesn't apply
 
 
 
==== Content: Quick Walkthrough ====
 
* Use list format this way:
 
:<nowiki>* step 1</nowiki>
 
:<nowiki>* step 2</nowiki>
 
:<nowiki>*  ...</nowiki>
 
:<nowiki>* step N</nowiki>
 
 
 
==== Content: Detailed Walkthrough ====
 
* Describe the full quest with detail
 
* Use your writing skills to entertain the reader
 
* Add images to show where to go, who to talk or what to do
 
* Add screenshots of the dialogs
 
 
 
==== Content: Enemies ====
 
* Add templates of the main quest enemies
 
* Add links to other possible enemies as additional information
 
 
 
==== Content: Logbook ====
 
* Add logbook images! Always!
 
* If the logbook text is too long, as as many screenshots as needed
 
** This should mean two screenshots, needing three of them would be strange
 
** If more than three are needed, ask first in the forum!!
 
 
 
==== Content: Notes ====
 
* Write any notes here if there's any additional information to be mentioned
 
 
 
==== Categories ====
 
* Use the proper category tags that match your quest
 
** General quests should be categorized as ''quests'' as well as ''side quests''
 
** Chain quests should be categorized only as ''chain quests''
 
** Individual quests in chain quests should be categorized only as ''quests''
 
** Class specific quests should be categorized only as ''class quests''
 
** Main campaign quests should be categorized either as ''light campaign quests'' or ''shadows campaign quests''
 
** Ice and blood quests should be categorized as ''ice and blood quests''
 
** CM quests should be categorized as ''community patch quests''
 
 
 
==== Images ====
 
* Use frames according to the template
 
** Single screenshots should be framed
 
** Related ''map'' and ''tabmap'' screenshots should be framed toghether (see template!)
 
* Use 1280x1024 resolution if possible
 
** Try to keep when possible the same aspect ratio
 
** Do not use portrait clipping, will cause half of te page to be empty!
 
* Do NOT change the shown size specified in the quest template
 
** You should '''remove''' the size tag '''only''' if the size is exactly the same
 
* You can clip your images down, but don't clip too much
 
** 800x600 is ok for map and tabmap images
 
** 1024x768 is ok for general camera images
 
** dialogs must be clipped to their exact size (like [[:Image:MadButcher_Kragik1Dialog.jpg|this one]])
 
* Images must be saved in JPG format (65-75% quality)
 
** This can vary depending on the image, apply common sense
 
** Images should not be bigger than 200 Kb
 
** Images can be GIF for dialogs
 
** GIF means max.256 colors: use it wisely!
