TCRF is not a place to advertise your own content. This includes videos and sites not directly related to the material covered here. |
- * Aplican algunas excepciones.
- ** Si la información que deseas añadir se puede encontrar en muchos otros juegos de la misma plataforma, es probable que no necesite ser documentado aquí.
¿Quién es dueño de la información?
Nadie es dueño de la información. TCRF es un wiki comunitario. Cualquiera puede escribir, arreglar, cambiar, o contribuir artículos. No te sorprendas cuando otros usuarios editen un artículo escrito por ti para mejorar la exactitud y clarificar algunas cosas, arreglar gramática, ortografía, formato, o añadir más información.
Si quieres empezar a trabajar en un artículo, pero no estás listo para que otra gente lo edite, puedes ponerlo en una subpágina en tu espacio de usuario. Los artículos en tu espacio de usuario no serán editadas por otros. Puede mover el artículo a la parte principal de la wiki y abrirlo a las contribuciones cuando te sientas preparado. Visita Páginas de espacio de usuario para más información.
Disputas y guerras de edición
Por favor, no deshagas ediciones de otras personas a menos que sientas que hayan cometido un error evidente. Esto incluye cambios que hacen que el texto de una página sea ambiguo o engañoso, o eliminar detalles técnicos. Si te encuentras con esta situación ...
- Deshaz la edición.
- Nunca deshagas los cambios hechos por un administrador.
- Escribe la razón por la cual deshiciste la edición en la línea de resumen de edición.
- Esta línea está debajo del cuadro de texto de edición.
- Sé cortés en tu explicación.
Si sigues teniendo problemas con otro usuario, o quieres debatir una edición, escribe un mensaje cortés en la pagina de discusión (Talk Page) de un administrador explicando el asunto. Si no entiendes cómo funcionan las paginas de discusión , visita Páginas de discusión de usuario para más información.

Otras reglas
Especulación:
Evita la especulación en los artículos. Asegúrate de que haya evidencia de tus afirmaciones.
Opiniones:
No critiques duramente a un juego porque no te haya gustado. Otros lectores podrían estar en desacuerdo.
Humor:
Eres bienvenido a utilizar un poco de humor en tu redacción. Sin embargo...
- No edites un artículo o la etiqueta de una imagen solo para agregar humor.
- No te sobrepases. El foco de TCRF es información, no ingenio.
- No seas ofensivo. Sé políticamente correcto.
Al usar los términos "alpha" y "beta"
Los términos "alfa" y "beta" son a menudo mal utilizados, así que desalentamos su uso en el wiki. Usa "version temprana", "prototipo", o "no usado" en cambio.
- La única excepción a esta regla es cuando un juego está etiquetado específicamente un "alpha" o "beta" por el creador / editor. Por ejemplo, una prueba beta pública de un juego de PC como Minecraft. Si el juego es en realidad una versión alpha o beta, por favor, agrega una nota en la página de discusión del juego y en el cuadro Resumen de edición para que tus cambios no se corrijan por error.
Crear artículos
Sigue los siguientes pasos para empezar a crear un artículo. Sólo crea un artículo si tienes información para poner en él. No reserves artículos para juegos sin ningún descubrimiento de contenido.
- Busca en TCRF para ver si alguien ya ha hecho un artículo para el juego.
- Puedes usar el cuadro Buscar en la barra lateral, o ingresa acá.
- Si no hay resultados, verás un enlace que dice "¡Crear la página en el wiki!"
- (Ejemplo)
- Haz clic en el enlace de color rojo, y llegarás a una pantalla de edición donde puedes comenzar a crear tu artículo.
- (Ejemplo)
- Usa el botón "Mostrar previsualización" debajo del cuadro Resumen de edición para previsualizar los cambios antes de hacer clic en "Guardar página".
- Por favor intenta agregar o editar tanto como te sea posible, para evitar espamear la página Cambios recientes y el canal de IRC con notificaciones.
- Usa el cuadro Resumen de edición para describir lo que hayas agregado o editado.
- Ejemplo: "Added debug menu screenshot." (Agregado pantallazo del menú de depuración)
Títulos
Al elegir un título...
- Usa el nombre apropiado para el juego.
- Ejemplo: The Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess
- Sin embargo, si un juego tiene un título o subtítulo largo, puedes acortarlo.
- Ejemplo: "The Flintstones - The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy" puede ser acortado a "The Flintstones".
- Las abreviaturas convencionales también están bien.
- Ejemplo: "Super Mario Brothers 3" puede ser "Super Mario Bros. 3".
- Si hay más de una versión del juego, agrega el sistema al título.
- Ejemplo: Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis)
- Usa el título de laversión americana del juego.
- Ejemplo: The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time
- Si el juego no fue lanzado en los Estados Unidos, ocupa el título de la versión japonesa.
- Ejemplo: BS Zelda - Inishie no Sekiban
- Si el juego fue lanzado en Europa, pero no en EE.UU., ocupa el título de la versión europea.
- Ejemplo: Mr. Gimmick
Redirects
Sometimes a game has more than one commonly-known name. For example, Doubutsu no Mori was only released in Japan, but English-speaking fans call the game Animal Forest. You can create a redirect, so people searching for "Animal Forest" will get to the article for Doubutsu no Mori. Add the following code to an article to create a redirect:
| Code: |
| #REDIRECT [[Game Name]] |
For example, you can add #REDIRECT [[Animal Forest]] to the Doubutsu no Mori page.
Descriptions
Please put a short description of the game at the top of every article. TCRF does not require detailed summaries. A sentence is enough. If readers want to learn more about a game, they can visit Wikipedia.
Example:
'''''Lufia II''''' is an RPG for the SNES. It is actually a prequel to the first game in the series.
Bobs
Every article (except for articles about prototype games) needs a bob. A bob is a column with information about the game, including when it was released, its publisher, developer, and what kind of unused and debug content can be found on the article.
To create a bob, copy the code below and change the information to match your game. If your game doesn't have unused graphics, for example, simply delete the |graphics= yes line. You can see an example on the right.
If a game was released in two or more calendar years (such as 2011 and 2012), add |nocat=true to the later release dates.
| The Legend of Zelda - The Wind Waker |
|---|
|
Also known as: Kaze no Takuto (JP)
|
| Code: |
| {{Bob | bobscreen= IMAGE_NAME.png |
Uploading Title Screens
| Yoot Tower |
|---|
|
Also known as: The Tower II (JP)
|
Bobs need a picture of the game's title screen. Because you can't use box art or watermarked images from other websites, you will have to upload one. Title screenshots need to be taken with an emulator or in-game screenshot function at the game's native resolution. Visit Images for more information.
If you cannot take a title screenshot, delete this code from the bob:
| | bobscreen= IMAGE_NAME.png | screenwidth= 320px |
The article will be added to the Missing Title Screen category. You can see an example on the right. Below is the code used to create this example.
| Code: |
| {{Bob | title= Yoot Tower |
No Title Screen
| Atlantis no Nazo |
|---|
|
Developer:
Sunsoft
|
If the game has no title screen, delete this code:
| | bobscreen= IMAGE_NAME.png | screenwidth= 320px |
Then, add this code:
| | noscreen= yes |
You can see an example on the right. Below is the code used to create this example.
| Code: |
| {{Bob | noscreen= yes |
Arcade Games
| Donkey Kong Jr. |
|---|
|
Developer:
Nintendo
|
If the game is an arcade game, delete this code from the bob:
| | system= Insert System Here |
Then, add this code:
| | arcadesys= Insert System Here |
You can see an example on the right. Below is the code used to create this example.
| Code: |
| {{Bob | bobscreen= DKJuniorTitle.png |
BIOS Pages
If the article is about a BIOS, it will need a title screen, title, developer, publisher, system, release date, and a list of what unused content it contains. You can see an example on the right. Below is the code used to create this example.
| BS-X (Beta Satellaview) |
|---|
|
Developer:
Nintendo, St. Giga
|
| Code: |
| {{Bob | bobscreen= BS-X BIOS Title Screen.png |
Uploading & Formatting Images/Video/Audio
Please see Uploading Files for more information.
Spacing Issues
If text isn't wrapping properly around bobs, images, or embedded videos, use a {{clear}} tag to force unrelated content below them. I have used a {{clear}} tag at end of this section to prevent the text in the Subpages section below from wrapping around the image on the right.
| Code: |
| {{clear}} |
Subpages
If a game has a lot of content from a certain category (i.e., unused items), you can create a separate Subpage for the category so the main article doesn't get too full. First, you will need to create a section for Subpages, like we've done here. (Visit Sections for more information.) Then, add this code below the section name:
| Code: |
| {{subpage|Subpage Name|image=IMAGE_NAME.png|width=80|text=A brief description of the Subpage, with a relevant image.}} |
You will also need to add a thumbnail image that is relevant to your Subpage. The result will look like this:
| Map Select Information about the game's map select. |
The name of the Subpage will be a red link. Click the name to start editing the Subpage.
Sections
You can divide an article's content into sections. If you have 3 or more sections, an index will be automatically created at the top of the page. The section you are reading is called "Sections".
| Code: |
| ==Section Name== |
Sub-Headers
Sections can be divided into Subsections by using sub-headers.
| Code: |
| ===Sub-Header Name=== |
Result:
Example
It's easy!
Text Formatting
A guide to basic text formatting on the wiki.
Bold
To bold text, place three apostrophes before and after the text that you want to be bolded.
| Code: | Result: |
| '''Bold''' | Bold |
Always use bold text for controller buttons and D-Pad/joystick movements:
- Press Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A to make your vehicle explode.
Italics
To italicize text, place two apostrophes before and after the text that you want to be italicized.
| Code: | Result: |
| ''Italics'' | Italics |
Always italicize game titles:
- This spiritual successor to Vehicle Race Excellent was developed entirely on a ZX Spectrum, in only three weeks' time, on a budget of exactly three cans of SpaghettiOs.
Bold + Italics
To bold and italicize text, place five apostrophes before and after the text that you want to be bolded and italicized.
| Code: | Result: |
| '''''Bold + Italics''''' | Bold + Italics |
Always bold and italicize a game title when it appears in its own article description:
- Jalopy Run Wonderful is a futuristic 3D racing game, and a prime example of what happens when you simply don't give a crap.
Hex Values & Codes
Use the code below when writing hexadecimal values (ROM addresses, Gameshark codes, etc.) in your article:
| Code: | Result: |
| {{hex|22160484 00000000}} | 22160484 00000000 |
Don't forget to note which version of the game your code is for, if there is more than one version.
Links
To create a link, place square brackets around the URL. Try not to add red links to pages.
| Code: | Result: |
| [http://tcrf.net] | [1] |
Adding Links to Text:
To add links to text, use the following code:
| Code: | Result: |
| [http://tcrf.net The Cutting Room Floor] | The Cutting Room Floor |
Linking TCRF Pages:
When you want to link pages or files on TCRF, use this code:
| Code: | [[Page_Name|Link Text]] |
Example:
| Code: | Result: |
| [[Donkey Kong Country (SNES)|Donkey Kong Country (SNES)]] | Donkey Kong Country (SNES) |
Linking Categories:
When you want to link categories on TCRF, use this code:
| Code: | [[:Category:Category_Name|Link Text]] |
Example:
| Code: | Result: |
| [[:Category:NES games|NES]] | NES |
Tables
To create a table, use the following code:
| Code: |
| {| class="wikitable" style="text-align: left;" !Column Header 1 |
Result:
| Column Header 1 | Column Header 2 |
|---|---|
| Row A, Column 1 | Row A, Column 2 |
| Row B, Column 1 | Row B, Column 2 |
| Row C, Column 1 | Row C, Column 2 |
Lists
To create a list, use #:
| Code: | Result: |
| # Apples # Grapes |
|
To add subpoints to your lists, use *:
| Code: | Result: |
| # Apples #* Red |
|
Boxes
Create boxes around your text with <pre> </pre> tags:
| Code: | Result: |
| <pre>This is an example.</pre> | This is an example. |
Citing Sources
If your information is from other websites or users, you can credit them with the {{source}} tag:
| Code: | Result: |
| {{source|Person A (Code), Person B (Screenshot)}} |
(Source: Person A (Code), Person B (Screenshot))
|
Adding Categories
If you need to add a page to more than one category, use this code:
| Code: | [[Category:System games]] |
Series Templates
TCRF has articles about many games from many different series. If you create an article about a game from a popular series, add a {{series}} tag to the bottom of your article:
| Code: | {{Zelda series}} |
Result:
Don't add unlicensed or fan-made games to series templates.
- Exception: Ports licensed by the original creator of the game but not licensed by the console manufacturer; specifically:
- Tengen's unlicensed NES games for Atari, Namco, and Sega; though they are not licensed by Nintendo, they are licensed by Atari, Namco, and Sega, and thus qualify
- Accolade/Ballistic's unlicensed Genesis ports of computer games and the first Double Dragon title, for the same reason
Tags
You can attach tags to your article in order to alert readers about things that need to be done.
Work in Progress
This tag shows that someone is still actively working on an article. However, it does not prevent others from contributing. Anyone is free to edit articles on the wiki, even if they are still under construction. If you are not ready for other users to contribute to your article, put it on a subpage in your User Space until you are ready to move it to the main wiki. For more information, visit User Sub-Pages.
| Code: | {{WIP}} |
| This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes. |
To Do
| Code: | {{todo|Describe what needs to be done.}} |
| To do: This article needs more screenshots. |
New Article
| Code: | {{start}} |
| This article has just been started and needs the article basics added. Help us out and add them. |
Stub
| Code: | {{stub}} |

| This page or section needs more images. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough pictures. Please fix this. |
Translate
| Code: | {{needsTranslation}} |
Update
| Code: | {{NeedsUpdate}} |
Improve
| Code: | {{sucks|reason=Reason the article is unsatisfactory}} |

Delete
| Code: | {{delete|reason=Reason the page should be deleted}} |
| This page or file is awaiting consideration for deletion. Please make sure it is not linked anywhere before deleting it! |
Article Talk Pages
Every article has a Talk page. Here, users can discuss the article's content, bring up concerns, or ask questions. You can find the Talk page by visiting an article and clicking on the "discussion" tab to the right of the "Page" tab at the top left of the screen.
(Example)
If the word "discussion" is red, that means that no one has written on the page yet and you will be brought to an edit screen.
Rules
Article Talk pages are not for arguing with other users. If you are having problems with someone, visit Handling Disputes for more information.
Don't alter the content of an article's Talk page. This includes deleting comments.
Leaving Comments
To write on an article's Talk Page use the following format:
| Code: | ==Topic==
Write your comment/question/etc. here. --~~~~ |
Writing four tildes (--~~~~) attaches your signature and a timestamp to your comment, so other users will know who wrote it and when. --GlitterBerri 21:32, 25 December 2012 (EST)
Replying
You can reply to people's comments by using a : in front of your response. It will automatically indent your reply.
| Code: | Result: |
| Are you sure that location A_R00 is unused? I'm pretty sure that's just the forest on Outset Island. --~~~~ :It's definitely unused. I just checked, and the Outset Island forest looks totally different. --~~~~ |
Are you sure that location A_R00 is unused? I'm pretty sure that's just the forest on Outset Island. --ZestyLemon 21:56, 26 November 2012 (EST)
|
Comments can be indented further by adding more colons (:).
| Code: | Result: |
| Are you sure that location A_R00 is unused? I'm pretty sure that's just the forest on Outset Island. --~~~~ :It's definitely unused. I just checked, and the Outset Island forest looks totally different. --~~~~ |

Article Note Pages
Note pages can be created to keep track of or share information with other users. They are used for hacking notes or to record small details that aren't noteworthy enough to include in the main article.
(Example)
To create a note page:
- Go to http://tcrf.net/Notes:Game_Name (Example)
- You will see a page with the words "There is currently no text in this page. You can search for this page title in other pages, search the related logs, or edit this page."
- Click the words "edit this page" or the "create" tab at the top to start editing.
If a game has a Notes page, the sentence "This game has a notes page" will automatically appear on the article's bob.
(Example)
