User blog:Meleri/How to Make an Informative Page

When I first started writing pages, I was pretty clueless. I had to figure things out on my own. Along the way, I picked up on some things to help me write consistent pages that had all the informative that they needed.

Firstly, I found these links very useful: I quickly learnt how to set out a food page nicely. One of the best examples of this would be Miso Paste. This page has a food classification (Morsel), how much hunger it restores, how to make the item, and a "Uses" sections to show what it can be used in. Not every food item has a use, other than to just be eaten. If this is the case, simply don't include a Uses section.

 * How to Classify Food Items

When I made pages, I often forgot to add Categories. Categories are very important and, when remembered, should be added. Categories should be broad, but not too broad. Categories such as "Food" and "Drink" are good, but you wouldn't make a "Food and Drink" Category. Categories should also be used to show the classification of a food. These include: Please always check which classification something belongs to before adding it. There have been multiple occasions where something has been classified as a "Snack" instead of a "Light Meal". These categories are not classified from personal preference, and are instead decided by the amount of Hunger an item restores.
 * Morsel
 * Snack
 * Light Meal
 * Main Dish (Meal)
 * Large Meal
 * Feast

Happy creating!
