This page contains information on the standards for all pages relating to items and equipment.

Template:

The following templates should be used for items whenever possible.

Article Names

To enable the Template:ShopItem to work correctly, all item articles should omit any capitalization from the name and instead use the name= field to make any corrections.

The leading articles, a, an, some, and the are not included in the page name or name= field. Quantities (for example, "pair of" and "set of") are included.

Name Field

The name field is not filled out unless the item name differs from the page name. Capitalization is one such difference.
