Bleach Wiki:Layout Guide

Canon Policy	Discussion Policy	Layout Guide	Speculation Policy	Image Policy

Hello and welcome to the Bleach Wiki. There are very few policies which apply across all of Wikia; the ones that do can be found at their Policy Category.

In addition to these policies, there have been policies and guidelines that have been developed on the Bleach Wiki to further our goal of creating an informative Bleach database. Our policies apply to all editors.

We at the Bleach Wiki strive to create a welcoming and fun environment for those who are civil and assume good faith in others, seek consensus in discussions, and work towards the goal of creating an increasingly comprehensive database about everything in the Bleach Universe.

Policies need to be approached with common sense; adhere to the spirit rather than the lettering of the rules, and be prepared to break the rules on the rare occasion when they conflict with the goal of improving the wiki.

General Rules

Do not vandalize current articles. Continued vandalism will result in a block.
No offensive articles with sexual/vulgar language or racist remarks.
Do not make pointless articles. If you see one, put the Request for Deletion tag on.
Please respect neutrality.
Do not edit a closed discussion.

Ways to stay neutral
Do not only provide one point of view, but all relevant viewpoints as necessary.
Support your article with actual facts.
Use a reliable source.

User Page Policy	Redirect Policy	Manual of Style	Spoiler Policy	Blocking Policy

Article layout is to a large extent standardized on Bleach Wiki.

Headings should have the first letter of every word capitalized, except for prepositions e.g. "of" or "in." Article headings are standardized.

The headings on a page should appear in the order below if they are needed in an article. If there is no information to be placed under a specific heading, then that heading should not be added. If a page type is not covered here, you should search for pages of the same type and follow the same format as them. If a page has a "See Also" heading, it should be the last heading before the "References" and "Navigation" headings.
