誰が情報を支配する？

誰も、ここで書かれる情報を所有しません。 TCRFは、地域に密着したwikiです。 誰でも書くことができるし、直すこともできるし、ページを変更することもできるし、記事に貢献することもできます。 他のユーザーが記事を編集するとき、あなたがその正確さを改善するために書いたか、文法、つづりなどの問題を解決するなど、詳細な情報を加えることに驚かないでください。

記事の編集戦争

あなたが、他の人が編集した記事を「100%間違っている」と思わないなら、ほかの人の編集を無断で削除しないでください！技術的な詳細を削除する編集も含みます。あなたがもしそんな状況に遭遇したら・・・

1. 編集を取り消す。
   • 管理者の編集を元に戻さないでください。
2. 記事の説明文に取り消す理由を書く。
   • これは、編集ボックスの下にあります。
   • 説明は、礼儀正しくしてください。

あなたが一人のユーザーとだけ問題を持った場合、どちらかのユーザーのトークページで議論をしてください。詳しくはUser Spacesを読んでください。

その他のルール

推測を避ける

推測は証拠・理由がない場合は記述しないでください。証拠・理由があるならば、提示をしてください。

ゲーム自体の批判は避ける

あなたがそのゲームを嫌っていても、ゲームを厳しく批判しないでください。他の人は違う意見を持っているかもしれません。

ユーモアについて

記事の中でユーモアは使ってもOKです！ですが・・・

• Don't edit an article or image caption just to add or change humor.
• Don't overdo it. The focus of TCRF is information, not wit.
• Don't be offensive. Do be politically correct.

「アルファ版」「ベータ版」を使用する条件

「アルファ版」「ベータ版」という言葉はしばしば間違って使われます。なのでWiki内で間違って使用されている場合は、私たちが修正します。 そのかわりにearly(古い)やprototype(プロトタイプ)、unused(未使用の～)を使ってください。

• この「アルファ版」「ベータ版」が適用される唯一の例外は、開発者や出版社が「アルファ版」「ベータ版」と言っている場合のみです。たとえばMinecraftのようなゲームです。ゲームが本当に「アルファ版」「ベータ版」なら、誤って修正されないようにゲームのページや編集概要ボックスにメモをしてください。

記事を作るには

記事の執筆を始めるには、下記の手順に従ってください。書くべき情報を持っているときのみ、記事を作成してください。なにも見つかっていないゲーム用の場所取り記事を作らないでください。

1. Search TCRF to see if someone has already made an article for the game.
   • You can use the Search box on the left sidebar, or click here.
2. If there are no results, you will see a link that says "Create the page on this wiki!"
   • (Example)
3. Click the red link, and you will arrive at an edit screen where you can begin creating your article.
   • (Example)
4. Use the "Show preview" button below the Edit Summary box to preview your changes before clicking "Save page".
   • Please try to add or edit as much as possible before saving the page so you don't spam the Recent Changes page and IRC channel with notifications.
5. Use the Edit Summary box to describe what you added or edited.
   • Example: "Added debug menu screenshot."

タイトル

記事タイトルを決めるときには...

1. ゲームには適切な名前を使用してください。
   • 例: The Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess
2. ただし、タイトルやサブタイトルが長いゲームの場合は短縮できます。
   • 例: "The Flintstones - The Rescue of Dino & Hoppy"は"The Flintstones"と短くできます。
3. 慣習的な略語もOKです。
   • 例: "Super Mario Brothers 3"は"Super Mario Bros. 3"にすることができます。
4. ゲームタイトルが複数ある場合は、ハードの名前をタイトルに追加します。
   • 例: Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis)
5. アメリカでのタイトルを使用してください。
   • 例: The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time
6. アメリカでリリースされていなければ、日本のタイトルを使用してください。
   • 例: BS Zelda - Inishie no Sekiban
7. アメリカではなくヨーロッパでリリースされていれば、ヨーロッパのタイトルを使用します。
   • 例: Mr. Gimmick

リダイレクト

ゲームには、一般的に知られている名称が複数ある場合があります。たとえば、「どうぶつの森」は日本でリリースされていますが、英語を話すファンには「Animal Forest」と呼ばれています。リダイレクトを作成することができますので、「Animal Forest」を検索している人も「どうぶつの森」にアクセスできます。記事に次のコードを追加してリダイレクトを作成します：

Code:

#REDIRECT [[Game Name]]

For example, you can add #REDIRECT [[Animal Forest]] to the Doubutsu no Mori page.

説明

全ての記事の最初には、ゲームの簡単な説明を入れてください。TCRFでは詳細な要約は必要ありません。文章で十分です。読者がゲームについてもっと知りたいのであれば、Wikipediaを使います。

例:

'''''Lufia II''''' is an RPG for the SNES. It is actually a prequel to the first game in the series.

ボブ

全ての記事（プロトタイプに関する記事は除く）にはボブが必要です。ボブとは、ゲームがリリースされたときのパブリッシャー、開発会社、および未使用のデバッグコンテンツなどの種類など、ゲームに関する情報が記載されている表です。

ボブを作るには、下のコードをコピーし、ゲームに合わせて情報を変更します。例えば、ゲームに未使用のグラフィックがない場合、|graphics= yes の行を削除します。右の表は例です。

ゲームが2つ以上の異なる日付でリリースされている場合（例えば、2011年と2012年）、後のリリース日に |nocat=true を付与します。 {{date|2012|December|01}}のように数字の頭にゼロを付けないでください。ゼロもページに表示されてしまいます。（この場合だと、"December 01, 2012"）

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 !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 |}

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 # Kiwis	Apples Grapes Kiwis

To add subpoints to your lists, use *:

Code:	Result:
# Apples #* Red # Grapes #* Purple # Kiwis #* Green	Apples Red Grapes Purple Kiwis Green

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.

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 is rather stubbly and could use some expansion. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

Investigate Further

Code:

{{investigate}}

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.

Elaborate Further

Code:

{{elaborate}}

Please elaborate. Having more detail is always a good thing.

Add Images

Code:

{{needsimages}}

This page or section needs more images. There's a whole lotta words here, but not enough pictures. Please fix this.

Translate

Code:

{{needstranslation}}

...But what does it mean? This game has text or audio that needs to be translated. If you are fluent with this language, please read our translation guidelines and then submit a translation!

Update

Code:

{{needsupdate}}

This page is showing its age. Please update this page to fit our current standards!

Improve

Code:

{{sucks|reason=Reason the article is unsatisfactory}}

This page sucks. If you could make it suck less, that would be awesome.

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!

Defunct Game

This template is used whenever a game is shut down and there is no official way to play the game. This usually applies to games that require an online connection to play at all.

Code:

{{Defunct Game}}

This game is defunct. Do note the game no longer works at all without modifications. This is most likely due to the game's servers being shut down. As a result, further official developments with the game are unlikely to happen.

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.

Also, do not use talk pages for making articles and dumping info that should be placed into article.

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. --Divingkataetheweirdo 21:56, 26 November 2012 (EST) It's definitely unused. I just checked, and the Outset Island forest looks totally different. --GlitterBerri 21:51, 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. --~~~~ ::Got it, thanks for checking. --~~~~ :::No problem! --~~~~

Are you sure that location A_R00 is unused? I'm pretty sure that's just the forest on Outset Island. --Divingkataetheweirdo 21:56, 26 November 2012 (EST) It's definitely unused. I just checked, and the Outset Island forest looks totally different. --GlitterBerri 21:51, 26 November 2012 (EST) Got it, thanks for checking. --Divingkataetheweirdo 21:58, 26 November 2012 (EST) No problem! --GlitterBerri 21:51, 26 November 2012 (EST)

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:

1. Go to http://tcrf.net/Notes:Game_Name (Example)
2. 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."
3. 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)
