Using this format will make it easier to sort the list by updated date. This will help ensure the information on the list is current, and make it easy to find stale rows which may need to be adopted by other editors.


Example pages with columns:
* Alpha index template [[Massachusetts/Cities and towns]]
* Std columns [[Michigan]]


=== Talk pages ===
For example an Event row should look like this;


==== New topics ====
{{Tlx|Event/Item|name=''EVENT NAME''|date{{=}}14/10|in progress|username|updated{{=}}14/08}}
When adding a new topic, add a section heading to the talk page with:
<pre>== Heading name of your comment ==</pre>


==== Sign your post ====
Sign your posts by adding four ~ in a row:
<pre>~~~~</pre>


After saving, the four ~ will automatically be translated into links to your user page and talk page with the date and time of your post. Optionally set off your signature with italics using two ' marks around the four ~.
If there are multiple editors it should look like this
: This is my comment. ''[[User:Kentsmith9|kentsmith9]] ([[User talk:Kentsmith9|talk]]) 15:49, 16 May 2014 (UTC)''


==== Indent responses ====
{{Tlx|Event/Item|name=''EVENT NAME''|date{{=}}14/10|in progress|username1|username2|updated{{=}}14/08}}
Use '''indenting''' to show responses to prior entries with the : character using one for each level of indenting desired.
<pre>Initial message.
: Response to initial message.
:: Counter response.
::: Counter to the counter.</pre>
will produce:


Initial message.
: Response to initial message.
:: Counter response.
::: Counter to the counter.

=== Page titles ===

[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_titles Page titles]<br/>
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_titles#Article_title_format Page title format]


=== Section headings ===
{{Event/Item|name=July 4th Celebration|area=NYC|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/12|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|road=FDR Dr|date=07/04 annual|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=1864894199|source=http://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/motorist/wkndtraf.shtml}}
''For more information see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOS:HEADINGS#Section_headings Wikipedia Section headings] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Section Wikipedia Help on Sections].''


* Headings should not refer redundantly to the subject of the article, or to higher-level headings, unless doing so is shorter or clearer.
{{Event/Item|name=Summer Streets|road=Park Ave|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=1984749524|source=http://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/summerstreets/html/home/home.shtml|date=08 First 3 Sundays|area=NYC|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/10|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ}}
* Headings should not normally contain links, especially where only part of a heading is linked.
* Section and subsection headings should be unique within a page; otherwise section links may lead to the wrong place, and automatic edit summaries can be ambiguous.
* Citations should not be placed within or on the same line as section and subsection headings.
* Headings should not contain images, including flag icons.
* Headings should not contain questions.
* Avoid starting headings with numbers (other than years), because this can be confusing for readers with the "Auto-number headings" preference selected.
* Before changing a section heading, consider whether you might be breaking existing links to that section. If there are many links to the old section title, create an {{tl|anchor}} with that title to ensure that the links still work. Similarly, when linking to a section of an article, leave an invisible comment at that section, specifying the names of the linking articles so that if the title is altered, others can fix the links.
* Do not start headings with a single equal (=) because inside of the Wiki a single equal is used for the title. Always start with two equal signs (==).
* Place Anchors immediately below the section header or at the start of the header text inside the "=".


=== Creating pages ===
{{Event/Item|name=West Indian Day Parade|date=09 Labor Day annual|area=Kings|road=Eastern Pkwy, Classon-Rochester St Johns-Empire|source=http://maps.nyc.gov/streetclosure/|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=1605830763|status=submitted|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|updated=2017/02/10}}
If you want to build a page without input from others, start by creating it within your user namespace as a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:User_namespace#Terminology_and_page_locations subpage of your own]. That way you can more directly control the content.


=== Renaming pages ===
{{Event/Item|name=TD 5 Boro Bike Tour|area=NYC|date=05 First Sunday annual|road=5 Boroughs|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=790135118|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/08}}
When it becomes necessary to rename a page, the Move tab at the top of a Wiki page should be used for a few reasons. A redirect page is provided automatically from the old name. The edit history is transferred from the original page to the new one. This is important in understanding who introduced changes and when they were made to a page.


If the destination page of the rename already exists, it must be moved to another page without creating a redirect. Otherwise it will require an admin to delete the page.
{{Event/Item|name=NYC TCS Marathon|area=NYC|date=11 First Weekend annual|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=0|road=5 Boroughs|source=http://www.tcsnycmarathon.org/race-day/course|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/07}}


=== Disambiguation pages ===
{{Event/Item|name=UN General Assembly|area=NYC|road=East Midtown|date=09 Last Two Weeks Annual|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=1895099030|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/08}}
We follow the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Disambiguation|Wikipedia guidelines for Disambiguation (DAB) pages]]. Primarily make each entry only a single line. Do not use ending punctuation. Only use enough words to differentiate the the linked terms. Only have a single hyperlink per line. Some examples can be seen under the [https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Category:Disambiguation Category:Disambiguation].


=== Punctuation spacing ===
{{Event/Item|name=Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade|area=NYC|road=Herald Square|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=1774745119|date=11 Last Thursday Annual|source=http://social.macys.com/parade/#route|status=submitted|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ|updated=2017/02/08}}
The Wiki was set up with single spacing after the punctuation. In order to keep consistency in the Wiki, do not use double spacing after the punctuation.


=== HTTPS ===
{{Event/Item|name=Chinese New Year Parades|date=01 or 02 annual|pl=https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ira6IdyS3x3YtAlTqoXbU1Muw4ANl8rq7af2zKLcCtM/edit#gid=1190958434|area=NYC|road=Chinatown/8th Avenue/Flushing|status=submitted|updated=2017/02/08|Rfrsw101|jdelosa|johnsninja58|PesachZ}}
When adding an external link, do not include the "s" in '''https'''. Simply remove the "s" from the URL. This will prevent the display of the [https://www.google.com closed lock] image and instead show the [http://www.google.com external link indicator] or the [http://www.google.com/test.pdf document type (currently only pdf is mapped into the CSS)].

    • not submitted produces a red background
    • submitted produces a light green background
    • in progress produces an orange background.
  • Up to six editors can be listed in the table for any event. These can be the editors who are working to get it submitted, maintain the segments, or just have special knowledge of the event/area. They are entered as unnamed parameters. Meaning they are to be entered between two pipe (|) characters of the adjacent parameters. Each editors name (without any spaces) should be separated with a pipe (|).
  • updated= the date this event was last updated in this table. This is used to keep the table current, and identify stale entries.


The updated parameter (|updated=YY/MM(/DD)|) should be updated any time you update a row. Put the date you are modifying the row after the equals sign (=).


The |date=|, and |updated=| parameters should use the format YY/MM/DD. The day of the month is optional. Using this format will make it easier to sort the list by updated date. This will help ensure the information on the list is current, and make it easy to find stale rows which may need to be adopted by other editors.
