New page

This wiki makes use of '''data pages''' in order to organize certain data like Pokémon stats, move power, accuracy, and PP, item sell values, and more. This is done to reduce the number of pages that have to be updated when new game updates adjust game balance. This page will describe how to add pages for '''abilities''', '''items''', '''moves''', and '''Pokémon'''. These subjects have been roughly ordered in increasing complexity; adding a page for an Ability is easier than adding a page for a Pokémon.

== General Tips ==
* This guide will not use the visual editor, since it is heavily reliant on the use of templates.
* The data page for a given subject will be located at <code><nowiki>https://wiki.pmdo.pmdcollab.org/[SUBJECT]/Data</nowiki></code>.
* Data pages and page infoboxes heavily make use of MediaWiki templates. For a refresher on templates, see [[mw:Help:Templates]].
* Be sure to mark incomplete articles by adding <code><nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki></code> to the top of the page or <code><nowiki>{{sectstub}}</nowiki></code> underneath a section header.
* Keep descriptions detailed, but short. Include percentages for effect changes.
* When naming pages, don't add qualifiers like "(move)", "(item)", "(ability)", etc. unless it is to disambiguate between moves/items/abilities that share the same name, e.g. [[Metronome (item)]] and [[Metronome (move)]].

== Abilities ==
Example page: [[Big Pecks]] and [[Big Pecks/Data]]

=== Data Page ===
1. Create the ability's data page at [ABILITY NAME]/Data.

2. Add the below template and fill out the empty values:
<pre>
{{{{{1|AbilityData}}}
|ability_name=
|ability_id=
|description=
}}
</pre>
;ability_name (required)
:The ability's name, correctly capitalized and spaced.
;ability_id (required)
:The ability's internal string ID. This is the leftmost column if you are viewing the guide output.
;description (required)
:A terse but accurate description of the ability's effect.

3. Preview the page to make sure everything looks correct, then save the page when done.

=== Ability Page ===
4. Create a page for the ability.

5. Paste the following template into the page. Replace [ABILITY NAME] with the name of the ability, correctly capitalized and spaced.
