Content Guidelines and Spoiler Policy

A courier in sombre livery approaches you in the street to hand you a note bearing the seal of Mr Cryptics. It reads: 'You are about to post a spoiler. Take precautions.'

Minor Spoilers

An example of a minor spoiler tag. Don't actually use this though.

Template name: "minor spoiler"

"Oh, so piquant, these little ones. Like capers." Beyond this point lie minor spoilers for Fallen London, Sunless Sea, or Sunless Skies. Proceed with cursory acknowledgement. You can find out more about our spoiler policy here.

Spoilers

An example of a spoiler tag. Use this for any information related to midgame or Ambition-related content (Light Fingers! or The Venturer's Passage for example). However, content related to the endings of ambitions should be used under the major spoiler tag, see below.

Template name: "spoiler"

"There are some things we were not meant to know, they say. But you wouldn't be down here if you took that seriously." Beyond this point lie spoilers for Fallen London, Sunless Sea, Sunless Skies, or Mask of the Rose. This may include midgame or minor Fate-locked content. Proceed with caution. You can find out more about our spoiler policy here.

Major Spoilers

An example of a major spoiler tag. Use this for any information related to endgame or Fate-locked content, such as the endings of Ambitions or world-shaking revelations (remember, you cannot copy-and-paste entire texts verbatim). If you notice, this tag is a bit larger than the others, and for good reason. Use this tag at the top of articles only, use the smaller major spoiler tag otherwise.

Template name: "major spoiler"

"Are you quite sure you want to know this?" Beyond this point lie major spoilers for Fallen London, Sunless Sea, Sunless Skies, or Mask of the Rose. This may include endgame or major Fate-locked spoilers. Proceed at your own risk. You can find out more about our spoiler policy here.

Major Spoilers (Small)

An example of a small major spoiler tag. Use this tag for sections of articles only, otherwise it is the same as the tag above.

Template name: "major spoiler small"

"Are you quite sure you want to know this?" Beyond this point lie major spoilers for Fallen London, Sunless Sea, Sunless Skies, or Mask of the Rose. This may include endgame or major Fate-locked spoilers. Proceed at your own risk. You can find out more about our spoiler policy here.

Devoured Spoilers

The courier watches, then turns away.

The wax is crunchy. The note is chewy. Mm. Wax is exactly right. It doesn't taste of blood, yet, or ammonia, or stagnant water. Not yet. But wax is right.

Template name: "PECKISH" and "small peckish".

"In the migrainous straits of deep sleep, there is a marsh where candle-flames buzz like wasps." WARNING: Beyond this point lie spoilers for Fallen London's most infamous storyline: Seeking Mr Eaten's Name. Turn back now. You can find out more about our spoiler policy here.

Tables

Here is an example of how to make tables for pages with a very high amount of sections, such as in the The Masters of the Bazaar and The House of Rods and Chains pages.

{| class="article-table" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" width=100%
        !colspan=3|[[File:image.png|40px]] Title
        |-
        |Article text can go here and stuff.
        
        New paragraphs can be included like this.
        
        Use this template to write your text.
        |}

Masters
"Lorem Ipsum" Lorem Ipsum

Feast of the Exceptional Rose
"Lorem Ipsum" Lorem Ipsum

Text can be redacted like this using HTML tags. Only use this for small amounts of text however, i.e. use a spoiler tag instead for articles and sections.

<font color="white"><span style="background-color: white">like this</span></font>

Citations

Citations are a very important aspect of wiki curation, so any new contributions should have them by default. Here's how to cite the game's respective wikis:

<ref>{{FLCitation|url|title|game|}} ''"quoted text"''</ref>

• The url is the direct link to the source. Do not link to profile echo text, link the to corresponding wiki page instead. If the content in Fate-locked, link to the story's intro page instead.
• Quoted text should only be used if the url link does not contain the pertinent text which supports the information.
