| | Goals: |
| To join the project, simply add your name to the '''bottom''' of this list:
| | * Write comprehensive and upstanding articles on Ships. |
| | ** This means they are to be substantial, well written (even if they are short articles), and with substance. |
| | * Ensure that all hints/evidence/facts are in the originating media and not from fanfiction. All fanon information is to be eliminated. |
| | ** All given hints/evidence/facts should also be meaningful and not tossed in there because it made the Shipper in you go squee. |

| ===Page Creation===
| |
| If you want to create an article that is not listed on the [[Bulbapedia:Project Shipping/To-do list|to-do list]], it would be wise to ''ask'' the current project leader if it's actually okay, with a valid argument for it. There are over 6,000 Ships in the Pokémon fandom alone; not all of them deserve articles on the merit of existence alone.
| |
| | |
| ===Structure===
| |
| ====Title====
| |
| All articles should be known as 'Shipping:{name}Shipping' and a page, '{name}Shipping' should be created with only the template <nowiki>{{Shipping redirect}}</nowiki>. There is no need to put <nowiki>{{Shipping redirect|PAGENAME}}</nowiki> because the template has that covered.
| |
| | |
| Also, at the start of each article in the Shipping namespace you should add a [[Template:Ship|<nowiki>{{ship}}</nowiki>]] template so as to warn people.
| |
| | |
| If the article is a stub, use the template mentioned below.
| |
| | |
| ====Evidence Content====
| |
| The manual of style for all Shipping pages are going to follow a set structure, henceforth. All Shipping pages are, from here on in, either going to go through a major overhaul, or will be using this style from the get-go. Style should be:
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>
| |
| * ''[[DP001|TITLE]]''
| |
| : Hint that such-and-such may overgrossly perhaps CARE for the cretin.
| |
| * ''[[DP038|TITLE]]''
| |
| : Hint that such-and-such may want to have the cretin's children.
| |
| : Oh wait, new paragraph if the above one hint carries on for too long! Possibly still talking about them having children!
| |
| * ''[[DP099|TITLE]]''
| |
| : Hint that such-and-such may like a second honeymoon with the cretin. Oh look, another hint that shouldn't in a new paragraph because both are only a sentence long.
| |
| </nowiki>
| |
| | |
| However best this information is cataloged is at your own discretion (in individual person's sections, or if their interactions are heavily interlaced, go simply for one list that contains them both), but please remain concise and neat.
| |
| | |
| ====Categorize====
| |
| All articles are to be properly categorized according to character involvement and in this order of descending, applicable labels:
| |
| <nowiki>
| |
| [[Shipping|PAGENAME]]
| |
| [[Anime|PAGENAME]]
| |
| [[Game (whichever one they come from OR if they are a cross-gen 'ship)|PAGENAME]]
| |
| [[Manga|PAGENAME]]
| |
| [[OLDER male character]]
| |
| [[YOUNGER male character]]
| |
| [[OLDER female character]]
| |
| [[YOUNGER female character]]
| |
| [[Gym Leaders]]
| |
| [[Orange Crew]]**
| |
| [[E4 members]]
| |
| [[Frontier Brain]]
| |
| [[Team Rocket/Magma/Aqua/Galactic]]**
| |
| [[Movie character]]**
| |
| [[Pokémon]]</nowiki>
| |
| | |
| If you cannot tell who is older when dealing with homosexual Ships, then likely no one else can and it doesn't matter the order. No individual Pokémon is to have their own category, not even {{AP|Pikachu}}. If the character is not important (a movie character of any level, a COTD), they should not have their own category. If you think they should, ask the project leader first and state WHY you think they should have a category.
| |
| | |
| If a character falls under of the categories between ''Gym Leaders'' and ''Pokémon'', they do not get their own category without a convincing argument or enough Ships to require one.
| |
| | |
| If one is from the game and another is from the anime, we'll cross that bridge later. If they can cover two mediums legitimately, please list them in corresponding order.
| |
| | |
| If Brock or Misty are involved and the other involved isn't one, it is ''not'' necessary to add the ''Gym Leader'' category. If Jessie or James are involved, it is ''not'' necessary to add the ''Team Rocket'' category (Meowth and Giovanni do, as they to not have their own categories). Treat Wallace as a ''Gym Leader'', not an ''Elite Four'' member.
| |
| | |
| ====Further Notes====
| |
| ''Nevermetshippings'' should be labeled accordingly, such as [[OysterShipping]], [[RubyShipping]], [[OutcryShipping]], et cetra. Until they do meet, there will be no "hints", but "similarity" sections are allowed, as are reasons why people Ship them in the first place. However, please do not add bias information; no nevermet Ship has risen to the popularity of the others, so they do not rival ''anything'' within the fandom's top tier.
| |
| | |
| Nonrecurring Ships, such as [[LuckShipping]], [[DanceShipping]], [[AbilityShipping]], [[FireShipping]], where the person does not, or has not, thusly return after the heroes move on (regardless how many episodes that character was around for), should be analyzed to the nth degree (but not written be-all-end-all). Please use [[GaiaShipping]] as an example of how to handle those sorts of circumstances.
| |
| | |
| :'''Note''': [[TeenCareShipping]] is not to be handled as a nonrecurring Ship just yet, in the off-chance Holly does return. Please keep this in mind and make reserved judgment calls on the likeliness of a character returning or not in future Ships and articles (though it's understood there is a fallacy here, considering [[Nicholai]] randomly returned early in Hoenn, as did [[Aya]] from Kanto to Johto).
| |
| | |
| Please also do not assume that a standard for one carries over as a standard for another. This concerns the "Alternate name" business. If you've seen it with our own eyes, you may document it, UNLESS it's another Ship name that isn't on the list (the only current exception to this is "FarawayShipping" to OutcryShipping).
| |
| | |
| ===Goals===
| |
| # Write comprehensive and upstanding articles on Ships.
| |
| ##This means they are to be substantial, well written (even if they are short articles), and with substance.
| |
| # Ensure that all hints/evidence/facts are in the originating media and not from fanfiction. All fanon information is to be eliminated.
| |
| ##All given hints/evidence/facts should also be meaningful and not tossed in there because it made the Shipper in you go squee.

| | {{ProjectBox|width=50%|Participation| |
| | '''PLEASE READ''': "All" is a misnomer; it is impossible to actively construct articles for all the known Ships. Bulbapedia is also an encyclopedia, and encyclopedias are professional tools. All information is relevant if it relates directly to the medium it spawns from, and is FACT. It is fact Ash is oblivious to the many crushes he's gotten; it is not fact he might currently reciprocate on any of them. |
|
| |
|
| * {{Template|User Project Shipping}}
| | Shipping articles do offer bias, as Shipping itself is as bias as it is factual. It's fact Shipping is a major part of the fandom; it's not fact everyone agrees with everything that will be represented as evidence. Therefore, if you are going to participate in cleaning up the articles or creating them, please be aware of what is acceptable within the article. You might insert information another does not believe belongs, even though it fits possible "evidence"; unlike the main space, information here is not judged the same, only because everything on the main space is generally ironclad and there is no room for fanon, weak evidence, or lazy information. In that frame of mind, even bias information is subject to disbelief, and can be deleted if the evidence is not sustainable. |

| | tl;dr - Crap is still crap. You can grasp at straws, but you're better off not, for the sake of an article's integrity. Know your information, and if you have to, explain it coherently (just not over-glossed and embellished). |

|
| | AUGUST 21, 2009: There will be '''no more''' pages for nevermets without prior consultation with a staff member involved with the project. Any future articles will need to have a founding basis for the article, and will be given a week-long trial on its worth. Meaning, unless it's an article on a somewhat canon interrelation, such as ChikoShipping, AdvanceShipping, or CollideShipping, it will be rightly judged if it's worth notability. So before publishing the page, please construct it to an adequate size. If there is little to be said for the couple past popularity and straw-clutching (IkariShipping), then chances are it's not worth it. However, we will be the judge of that, if it's worth its weight or not. |
