Make sure that skills are properly spelled, '''including any accents if present.''' Some games have multiple variations of skills with the same name; in these cases, skill data modules differentiate each variant by adding a discriminator to their label. It is advised to look over a game's skill data module before adding skill variants. | ||

<code><nowiki>},</nowiki></code> is used to separate each additional skill. With the exception of numbers, data entered into parameters must be enclosed by apostrophes.

Skills are given a label in lowercase on the first line, which is the name that the Skill template will call a skill by. This label should generally be identical to the skill's in-game name, including any accents. Some games, however, have multiple variants of a skill with the same name. In these cases, each variant should be given a differentiator in their label, such as a number, an attribute, or a character's name. This allows the Skill template to reliably call specific variants of a skill. The skill's display name should otherwise remain how it is titled in-game. | ||

Because the Skill template and skill data modules are made to be universal, skill data parameters must be kept consistent with each module on the wiki. Inconsistently named parameters will cause Lua errors. Some common skill data parameters are listed below. | Because the Skill template and skill data modules are made to be universal, skill data parameters must be kept consistent with each module on the wiki.

For the most part, changes to Social Links between the original version of a game and its enhanced remaster may share the same section, with a clear distinction made where content is exclusive to a remaster. In these cases, the game section should remain titled as the original version (as this is the base game that enhanced remasters are based upon). Remaster-exclusive content can be denoted either within a tab's name in parentheses or in an [[Template:Exp|Exp tooltip]], whichever is more appropriate for the information covered. | |||
