Glitch City Wiki:Non-Pokémon glitches

From Glitch City Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Although Glitch City Laboratories is, and always has been, mainly about Pokémon glitches, pages about glitches from other video games are now allowed. The following are guidelines for such pages.

The {{nonpoke}} tag

All such articles must have a {{nonpoke}} tag. {{nonpoke}} is used as such:

{{nonpoke|name of game}}

and places the article outside the Pokémon series into its own category. For example, the Black Hole Glitch article displays this template.

Article title

The title of the article must have the name of the game after it, in parentheses. For example, the article mentioned above is fully named Black Hole Glitch (Super Smash Bros. Melee). However, the stuff in the parentheses does not have to appear in text links. To illustrate, the {{par}} template, used like

{{par|name of article|stuff in parentheses}}

can be used to make links to such articles. Example: Black Hole Glitch

Validation

Non-Pokémon game articles are not exempt from the rules on article validation. This means that a wiki sysop or quality control (QC) volunteer must manually vet new articles created as well as further edits to these articles. This generally means that the glitch, quirk, or trick has been personally tested by the approving editor. We are all Pokémon fans, so Pokémon articles are easier to manage; however, this does not exempt non-Pokémon articles from undergoing validation.

Manual of style

The manual of style must, of course, be adhered to.

Post-script

Super Smash Bros. games are not considered part of the Pokémon series on GCL.
