Chinese Artist Article Formatting
From DramaWiki
DramaWiki Policy
Creed
The one simple goal of DramaWiki: Become the number-one resource of user-contributed Asian drama information on the Internet. In order to meet this goal, all information on DramaWiki must have consistency. Consistency brings credibility. Credibility is an asset, giving the reader the assurance that the information provided by DramaWiki is clean, accurate, un-biased and verified.
In order to achieve the goal of being number-one on the Internet, DramaWiki must maintain a strict policy on how the content is validated, written and presented.
General guidelines
For artist articles, all editors must keep these general guidelines in mind:
- All style issues are covered in DramaWiki's Manual of Style.
- Validate all information before posting.
- Keep the focus on the relationship of the artist to TV dramas, and make sure the weight of the article tilts towards that relationship, with the other elements (movies, personal trivia, etc.) taking a backseat.
- The information does not reflect a personal POV (point of view).
- DramaWiki is NOT to be used as a free-form, free web site for fansite types. The artist articles must be presented in a professional-like, clean and informational form. Think of keeping the layout in an encyclopedia-like form.
- All romanization should be applied according to the Romanization of Chinese guidelines.
Formatting specifications
Philosophy
The idea behind setting formatting specifications is to give all Chinese-related artist articles a consistent look and feel. Consistency allows for frequent readers to become familiar with the organization of information provided by DramaWiki, and therefore allows the readers to basically spend the least amount of time on a given article, but still walk away with the information needed. It has been proven in various studies that an article with un-organized information, or an article with too much information can cause the reader to suffer from reader fatique.
In order to provide the reader with information and also provide a reader-friendly experience, it is very important that the editors stick with the formatting specifications. Through experimentation and feedback by the moderators and frequent editors of DramaWiki, the formatting specifications have been designed with consistency in mind. There are reasons behind the defined sections, the order in which they are displayed, and the content of each section. The specifications are based on the a typical visit to an artist article:
- Reader looks to see what TV dramas the artist appeared in.
- Reader looks to see what personal information is written about the artist.
- Reader looks to other resources for additional information.
Changing the order of the sections and/or changing the contents of each section will have an effect on both the reader experience and the goal of consistency DramaWiki strives to enforce.

TV Series
TV Show Theme Songs section
==TV Show Theme Songs== *[[Title of song|alternative]], [[Title of work|alternative]] (<year>) *[[Title of song|alternative]], [[Title of work|alternative]] (<year>) *[[Title of song|alternative]], [[Title of work|alternative]] (<year>)
- TV Show section notes
- List all theme songs in chronological and descending order, with the most recent work listed at the top.
- List only songs where the artist provided the vocals, or wrote the music and/or lyrics.
Movies section
==Movies== *<name of the movie> (<year>) *[URL to external movie link <description of the link>] (<year>) *[URL to external movie link <description of the link>] (<manufacturer>, <year>) *[URL to external movie link <description of the link>] (<year>) as <character's name>
- Movies section notes
- Do not mark movie links as internal DramaWiki links. This causes an editor to later on actually create an article for the movie, which is what DramaWiki should not have.
- List all movies in chronological and descending order, with the most recent work listed at the top.
- The name of the played character may be appended optionally for each listed movie.
- All links should lead to either to a respectable information website in English language or an official movie homepage.
Endorsements section
==Endorsements== *<Company and/or product name> (<year(s) of endorsement>) *<Company and/or product name> (<year(s) of endorsement>) *<Company and/or product name> (<year(s) of endorsement>)
- Endorsements section notes
- Endorsements are companies and/or products that are promoted by an artist. Some editors call this section CMs or commercials. This is contextually incorrect because the intent of the section is to provide information on ALL endorsements made by the artist, and not just commercials. Only company names should be listed. Avoid adding information that is too specific (ex: a particular CM). Do not list publication names.
- If years are known, list all endorsements in chronological and descending order, with the most recent endoresment listed at the top. Years are optional. If the years are not known, the endoresements can be listed in any order.
- Endorsements can also be listed in comma delimited form (ex: Pepsi-cola, Toyota, Wine Tasters of Japan). This is an alternative style in case the editor feels the bulleted listing format becomes too lengthy, or the listings lack years.
Recognitions
==Recognitions== *'''<type>:''' <description> (<year>) *'''<type>:''' <description> (<year>) *'''<type>:''' <description> (<year>)
- Recognition notes
- List all recognitions in chronological and descending order, with the most recent recognition listed at the top.
- List of types: {AWARD, APPEARANCE, APPOINTED, RECOGNIZED}
- Example: APPOINTED: Korea-Japan Goodwill Ambassador (2003)

- External Links notes
- For external links, keep the focus of the links to primary and secondary sourced sites, or sites are known to be credible throughout the TV drama community.
- Types of sites to avoid linking to:
- Sites that are purely fan-based. Doing so is considered link spamming in the wiki world.
- Any sites that contain adult-oriented information and images.
- Any sites that contain downloading of motion or still media, such as video streaming or direct downloads, peer-to-peer download links (BT, ClubBox, etc.), or bulk image downloads (photobooks, etc.)
