General Advice

If you are looking at writing a lot of articles, the general best practice is to think of the biggest article first, then if you need to go into more detail on a specific section, create the article to deal with that.

A good example here is the Sets page, where there is a brief introduction of all sets, then more detail on each set's individual page.

If you have questions, ask early and often in the Discord.

Commonly Used Terms and Templates
