Gineipaedia's section policy determines the standard order and intended use of sections/headers within the body of articles on this Web site.

Since this wiki is still relatively new and has few contributors, many of these policies are not yet set in stone. If you find you disagree with anything, please bring it up on this article's Talk page.

Standard order

In order to provide a consistent and logical structure to Gineipaedia's articles, a standard order should be followed for many of the sections used. Typically these are 'generic' sections which always have the same name regardless of which article they are included in.

Below are several lists which provide guidance on the exact order and structure to place sections/headers in within various article types. Lines listed in italics are descriptions of sections only, and should not be placed literally within an article; lines appearing as normal text are literal section headings and should always be placed in the order they appear here.

Note however that these sections do not necessarily need to be included in every article — when they are not appropriate for the topic at hand, simply omit them. Information relating to particular sections can also be combined into other sections, where applicable; for instance, if there is less than a paragraph of information available about a character's education, it might simply be included in their 'Early life' section (instead of creating a separate 'Education' section for it).
