Malibu Rescue Wiki:Project Countdown

Update: Project Countdown is currently taking place for a second period of time, and will end on August 17th, 2020.

'As the premiere of Malibu Rescue: The Next Wave'' draws nearer, our wiki's content needs to be cleaned up to meet standards. Project Countdown is a site-wide project that will help contributors clean up pages in an efficient way. Below is the Project Countdown protocol.'''

Project Countdown Protocol

 * If you have chosen to participate in Project Countdown, please follow this protocol.
 * What are our priorities? - To be simply put, we need to create all essential pages that have a major role in the Malibu Rescue franchise. This details pages on characters with large roles, pages on episodes, and pages on cast members and essential behind-the-scenes crew members (directors, producers, writers).
 * How do we flag pages that are currently being cleaned up/added to? - Use the template.
 * What should pages look like after construction is finished? - Pages on different types of content have different types of formatting, and are written from different points of view.
 * Character pages should be written from an in-universe point of view. This means phrases such as 'character', 'episode', 'portrayed', 'scene', and any other words that imply the character isn't real should not be used. Instead, write the page as if it is about a real person, and their real experiences.
 * Every character page should have an introduction paragraph, starting with their given name (nicknames they are often called should be put in quotes, in bold, and before their last name), and continuing with their gender, residence and occupation. Then, there should be a sentence listing their family members and how they are related to them. The final sentence of the introduction paragraph should describe their non-familial relationships and their affiliations (For example, Malibu Beach Junior Rescue).
 * Character pages need a 'History' section, containing (in chronological order) all of the things that have happened to the character in their life. After each paragraph, there should be a cite note that shows what episode/movie this was explained in, and if it was explained off-screen, there should be a references linking to the post/interview/video this was revealed in.
 * Character pages need a 'Relationships' section, listing all of their relationships (romantic, familial, platonic, as well as their acquaintances) but does not include ship names, theories, or implied information.
 * Character pages need an 'Appearances' section, containing the template if they appear in one of the movies, or the  template if they appear in episodes of the series.
 * Character pages need a 'Trivia' section, containing all non-essential facts that are considered interesting and worth noting.
 * Finally, if there are cite notes and references in the page, add a 'Notes' and/or 'References' section at the bottom of the page.
 * Episode pages should be written from a real-world point of view, and should follow the format as seen in the Fresh Off The Bus page.
 * Cast/crew pages should follow the format of cast/crew pages found on Wikipedia. (An example: Gwyneth Paltrow on Wikipedia).
 * Pages on teams/organizations (such as Malibu Beach Junior Rescue) should be written from an in-universe point of view, and should include:
 * An introductory paragraph including all the organization/team's official names, its purpose, and its current leader.
 * A 'History' section, containing everything that happened with characters while they had their positions on that team/organization. Remember to use cite notes after each paragraph to show what movie/episode that the information in that paragraph was obtained from.
 * An 'Appearances' section, containing the template and/or the  template.
 * Finally, a 'Notes' and/or 'References' section at the end of the page, containing the cite notes and references present in the page.
 * Location pages should follow the format seen in the Malibu page.
 * How long will Project Countdown last? - Project Countdown will commence from July 21st, 2020, to August 3rd, 2020, and if the project is not majorly successful, we will continue Project Countdown from August 4th, 2020, to August 17th, 2020.
 * Who can we contact if we have questions about Project Countdown? - Please contact an administrator if you have questions about Project Countdown. A list of administrators can be found here.
