User:Clamster5/Guideline

This page outlines the appropriate guidelines for pages related to WP:ASUE. These guidelines are here merely to serve as a guide to the WikiProject, so there is a lot of flexibility while writing articles. This is a wiki after all.

Individual Pages
For a character to recieve an individual page, he or she must have a prominent appearing role in 2 or more books. Exceptions include Mr. and Mrs. Baudelaire / Beatrice Baudelaire as they don't appear in the series but however still are alluded to or spoken about in every book.

Character List Pages
For those characters who do not meet the criteria for an individual page, they should be placed into one of the following groups:
 * Guardians - characters who are official or unofficial guardians of the Baudelaires, listed under the appropriate book heading
 * Castaways - characters living on Olaf-Land in The End
 * Count Olaf's associates - characters are part of Count Olaf's theatre troupe or otherwise work with Count Olaf
 * List of Prufrock Preparatory School Staff - characters who worked at Prufrock Preparatory School

If a character, especially a very minor character, does not fit into any of the above groups, they should be put into List of minor characters in A Series of Unfortunate Events.

Locations
All locations should be divided into one of the following groups:
 * Towns
 * Geographic locations
 * Houses
 * Boats/Submarines
 * Businesses

Books
All books recieve their own article. The only exception to this rule are special edition edition prints of books. Special editions should be listed in the main book page.

Other
If you feel a subject not covered in the above topics deserves an article, begin a discussion on the project talk page.
