In order to ensure that the user-made content on Pikmin Fanon is of an acceptable quality, the following rules and regulations have been created as to how the information on certain types of articles is presented.
IMPORTANT: If any of the required sections in a game, object, area, cave, or leader article for some reason DO NOT APPLY to the topic at hand, they are not required. If the page does not belong in one of the categories listed, contact an administrator to sort things out.
General rules
- DO NOT SIGN YOUR ARTICLES! ONLY CREDIT YOURSELF ON THE MAIN FANON GAME PAGE!
- Fix incorrect grammar and spelling and make sure each section has the right amount of information
- Don't create new pages that do not follow these formatting rules! You'll just have to fix them later anyways!
- All bullet lists should be in alphebetical order and paragraph lists should be in alphebetical order or another organized and specific order.

Character articles
These have less flexibility due to the fact that they contain information from many different users and fanon games.
