Wikizilla's Character Guidelines are a set of properties an article should have to properly write and format a Character article on Wikizilla. It is not an absolute law, but it should not be deviated from without a valid rationale.

Guidelines

What is a Character Article?

A Character Article, is, as it sounds, an article documenting a human or humanoid character in a Kaiju film or series.

Who Needs an Article

Not every character deserves an article. Background characters and film extras will not receive articles. Furthermore, only the main protagonists and antagonists should have articles. If a character is not or not very significant in the film or series, they are not significant here.

Color Coding

A Character Article should be color coded through the Types system to match the film or series that the character is from. For example, if a film's types are Fire and Fighting, a Character's types should be Fire and Fighting.

Content

A Character's article should not be a recap of the film or series they appear in. The article needs only to contain what that character did in the story. A Character Article should be written using past tense language.

Editing syntax

A character's film appearance should be noted like so:

Heading: History
Subheading: Film era
Sub-Subheading: Film
