The Article Layout Page is here to show you exactly how an article should look and also contains a few small hints on how to make it look like you want. Thank you for taking your time to check this article.
Why a Layout Page?[]
Here at My Empire Wiki all articles in the same category should look more or less the same; meaning they will all have the same headers (if that header can contain info) and the headers will always be placed in the same order. By doing this, visitors will easily find their way through each article and will feel they 'know' the Wiki rather quick. They know exactly where to look when, for example, they wish to know about historical & fictitious differences of, for example, Colossus; at the bottom of that article.
Also, people will make less distinction (quality-wise) between articles.
Overall advise: please create and edit using Source-mode (click on the upper-right button called Source). It may look more difficult but works more accurately and is less buggy.

Art Galleries[]
If there are images for a certain character a header can be made called 'Art Gallery' where up to 4 images can be placed. If the character has more than 4 images, the header must be called 'Art Gallery Preview' and directly below it a link will be placed to the complete gallery.
The gallery page itself only has a couple of small rules to keep in mind:
- The order of images is:
- Artwork (or statues)
- Movie and Series related images
- Game related artwork
- Only images that depict the Character, Building or Location itself are allowed to be placed in the Gallery, not images of people related to the character.
- We do not accept fanmade artwork.
