* First | Before writing an article you should consider what information is available, as you may not have enough information to write a '''valid''' article. | ||
* | |||
At the very least, a '''valid''' article should have a Publisher's summary, Character list, the correct infobox and information to fill out a majority of the fields of the infobox (see below) and the ''official'' image of the Novel's cover within the infobox. It should also have the correct layout for a Novel as detailed below. | |||
Please do not attempt to write an Novel article if you are unable to provide these. | |||
Please also, if you do not have the necessary information or time to complete any of the other headings or sub-headings listed below, please include them and add <nowiki>''to be added''</nowiki> below the sub-headings so that other editors may add to them when more information becomes available. | |||
By the very nature of a wiki all the other information will eventually be completed. No one here is expected to go it alone. | |||
*First onto the article is the infobox [[Template:Infobox Novel |infobox for Novels containing a Doctor]] and [[Template:Infobox Other Novels|infobox for Novels not containing a Doctor]] such as Bernice Summerfield and Companion only novels). Follow the links for a copyable version of the infobox, the page also has an explanation of all the fields in the infobox. | |||
*An infobox contains basic information such as Doctor, Companions, Publishing date, Enemy, setting and year of novel...etc. | |||
