So, I've been working on this in my spare time, just wittling away at it. But with all that's been going on, it's been kind of neglected for the past few days, and Kolano is doing something very similar with the {{Infobox VG}} template documentation, so, figured it was time for me to open this up and get some help. This wiki is colaborative, so let's work together on it. The only request I have for the style of this is that it avoid "rule" language. Thou shalt and thou shalt not type stuff. Just read the "preamble", and you'll get it. I'd like to be open and inviting, focused on how we do things and why, and not be bossy. I'm not sure I got that standard myself, but that's the goal for me.

So, first up, the things that are wrong with it right now. You'll notice there's alot of blanks, but that's just stuff that isn't complete yet. The broken formatting is the biggest issue for me right now.

  • How to format the opening. Putting the "preamble" up top created a situation where there is this tiny bit of text up at the top against the header, and then the giant contents box, then the information people wanted. It made the preamble completely invisible!
  • Seriously, how on earth does one get multiple lines into <pre> code? I tried everything without any luck. Anyone have any better ideas for that section?
