Announcement

[edit]

Welcome to WikiProject Men in Black. Several Wikipedians have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Men in Black and the organization of information and articles on this topic. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions and various resources; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please join the project, inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list below.

Guidelines

[edit]

For other information on some of the items in this section, please see Wikipedia:Wikify and Wikipedia:Manual of Style.

Notability

[edit]
  1. Always consider notability (importance to a general audience) when editing not only Men in Black-related articles, but Wikipedia in general. Wikipedia is a general interest encyclopedia, not an in-depth guide to everything related to Men in Black. That is the role of in Black Wiki. For detailed information on notability, please see Wikipedia:Notability (fiction).
  2. For more information on notability and tolerance within Wikipedia, please see Wikipedia:Fancruft and Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not.
  3. Characters, terms, and other topics that do not merit their own article (or any chance of expansion with ENCYCLOPEDIC material) should be merged into their respective lists.
  4. Likewise, if a topic has enough encyclopedic information to merit multiple sections and five or more paragraphs, it is generally safe to give it its own article.
  5. All movies, series, and albums may be given their own articles.
  6. There are fine lines between splitting and merging and notability, so there may always be disputes. Please be civil and make sure your argument covers all Wikipedia and Manual of Style rules.

Italics

[edit]
  1. Always italicise titles, including books, movies, episodes, series, games, and albums. Examples include: Men in Black 3, Men in Black II: Alien Escape, Men in Black: The Series - Episode 99, Black Suits Comin'.
  2. People and characters, such as Lowell Cunningham and Agent K, should not be italicised except for emphasis.
  3. Song titles should be placed in "double quotes" (I.E. "M.I.B. Main Theme").
  4. Italics may also be used for emphasis.

Bolding

[edit]
  1. The first mention of the article or list entry's subject should always be bolded. (If the term is also the title of a work, its first mention should be bolded and italicized; subsequent mentions should be italicized, as noted above.)
  2. In rare cases, minor topics may feature bold headings in lieu of subheaders.

Abbreviations

[edit]
  1. Generally, all abbreviations and shorthand writing should be avoided.
  2. When addressing a game, book, console, term, movie, etc., do not abbreviate (for example, type Men in Black 3 instead of MIB3; Men in Black: Alien Attack should not be abbreviated MIB:AA).

Wikilinking

[edit]
  1. A wikilink should only be used at the first mention, unless it is a template.
  2. In a list, major characters and terms may be wikilinked multiple times if necessary.
  3. Do not wikilink non-Men in Black related words unless they are not extremely common (e.g. do not wikilink memory or tool, but do wikilink Neuralyzer).
