==Organizing Year Zero==
Due to the massive nature of the World of Year Zero, organization of information is paramount to gaining a complete understanding of what is known up to date. As such, I am putting togeather together this guide to organize all Year Zero content on the website, including a hierarchy of the main research pages and standards for various types of recurring details in Year Zero (such as websites). In this manner all sites will be consistant consistent in their style, easily accessableaccessible, and there will be no redundant pages.
----
'''Splitting Articles''' As a rule of thumb, when a subsection of any site gains more than 4-5 of it's own subsections it should be split into it's own article and replaced on it's parent page with a short description and a link.
'''Year Zero Name''' Any major top-end page name (ie Research, Story, People, etc) should be distinguised distinguished from the rest of the Wiki content by adding "Year Zero" to the name.
'''Information Ordering''' Any subject in which the information is not proven to be dependant dependent on numerology or chronology should use alphabetical order.
'''Year Zero Research''' This will be the consolidated center of all information regarding Year Zero. The very top of the hierarchy.

Remember that too many subpages would be exactly the opposite of what we have now - too little info on each page. If you're careful about that, this will turn out great! --[[User:Tony|Tony]]<sup>[[User_talk:Tony|converse!]]</sup> 22:55, 16 April 2007 (PDT)
::Thats why I made the point that if a subpage gets too big it's turned into it's own article. and simply referenced by it's parent. The Research page will probally probably be the only one with alot a lot of subpages because it's the top of the hierarchy and has all the sections that cannot be consolidated into another parent section. I'm moving pages and information around as I work on this as well to conform with the new standards. Hopfully Hopefully people will follow the pattern. :D [[User:BurnHavoc|BurnHavoc]] 23:03, 16 April 2007 (PDT)
:::Good job with this. A big problem I've been noticing is that a lot of the NIN pages have been formatted, edited, perfected, yet a lot of the Year Zero Arg wiki pages are left unorganized. A major problem with this is the slew of new arg sites EVERY WEEK (what was it, 7 this week?!). I haven't been able to do much in terms of editing and adding info on both sides of a link, besides adding the lyrics from the songs that are on the new arg sites. I haven't been able to add anything major to the wiki since I'm in the middle of moving, but message my user page or leave it here on how I can help and I'll get crackin. -[[User:Velvolver|Velvolver]] 06:57, 17 April 2007 (PDT)
