The follow is the construction for a new style guide for community strategy pages.

Help:Style guide/Community Strategy

The following page is a style guide (community strategy). Strategy pages are pages detailing tips and tricks as well as helpful gameplay advice for classes, maps, achievements, etc. These pages are meant to be separate from the main article, linked together from a small section within the main article. The pages can be more informal then a main wiki article, however must follow a similar theme.

Writing strategy

• Strategy submissions should be easy to read, informative, and follow the writing style of the strategy submission before your's. As most strategy pages are community created, submissions may be more casual in writing style, just so long as the it follows the style of the other submissions.
• All strategy should still uphold to the rest of the style guide. This includes grammar, spelling, and formatting.

Removing strategy

What if my strategy is removed?

If your strategy was removed, do not immediately add it back into the article. First check the page's history to see who removed the item, and if they left a reason in the edit summary. If the person did not leave a reason or if you do not agree with their reason, consider asking them for an explanation or elaboration on their Talk page. If the matter is not resolved, make a new post on that talk page and state your case as to why your item is valid strategy. As strategy is subjective, many submissions may be edited.

Guidelines for strategy

The following is a set of guidelines to follow when writing strategy. Before making an addition, try to make sure that the item follows these guidelines.

What is strategy?

• Strategy should be descriptive and informative. Strategy submissions can be as long as they need to be as long as it is easy to read and follow.

• Strategy should follow a common writing style with the rest of the page. As strategy is more lax, anyone can write the page the way they wish, so long as it follows the rest of the wiki's guidelines. Future submissions from other users should follow the first editor's writing style to make the page appear as if it was written by one person.

• Strategy should be current. If a submission contains information that was changed from an update (Such as a map structure change, or a weapon rebalancing) then update it.

What is not strategy?

• Strategy should not use bugs or exploits. Exploits are not a useful strategy as they were not intended to be in the game and will be fixed later on.
