Wiki:Layout guide
Appearance
This page is about the section order of each page type. For how articles are written and titled, see Wiki:Manual of Style.
The Layout guide sets the section order for every type of article on this wiki, so a reader always finds the same information in the same place. It is the companion to the Wiki:Manual of Style, which covers writing, titling and categorisation.
Every content page ends with the same tail: Changes, Trivia, References, then the navbox footer.
Fixed section order per page type, so readers always know where to look. Modelled on OSRS Wiki. Every page ends with the universal tail: Changes → Trivia → References → navbox footer.
