[edit] Style Guide
Tips Captials matter! [[NDS/FlashMe|FlashMe]] and[[NDS/FlashME|FlashME]] will create and link to two completely seperate pages.
Headings
There are five orders of headings. Headings cannot be formatted.
Order Syntax Description H1 =H1= Top-level heading. DO NOT USE! H2 ==H2== Section-level heading. H3 ===H3=== Subsection-level heading. H4 ====H4==== Sub-subsection-level heading. H5 =====H5===== Low-level heading. Rarely used.
Please use the headings in order. The automatically generated title of the page is automatically set to H1 and cannot be changed. For subheads within your content, first use H2. Then if you need to further subdivide beneath that subhead, use H3, H4 and then H5.
Capitalization
All words in a title should be capitalized. Subheads should be written in "sentence case" which means you capitalize it like you do a sentence - the first word is capitalized, and any proper names, but other than that, words are lower case.

Wording
In general, titles work best if you don't start them with "the", "a" and "an."
Wording Example
Okay: The IGDA’s history Better: History of IGDA
Redirects
- To have Wolf3d redirect to Wolfenstein 3D for example, make the contents of Wolf3d be only:
#redirect [[NDS/Wolfenstein 3D]]
