[edit] Style guide and naming
Before this project gets too big, I should probably set down a few style guidelines so that the Wiki formatting looks consistent.
[edit] Titles
Shows should be listed under the most common title.
- If the show is more commonly known by a short title, then the short title should be used. (Ex. Greed instead of Greed: The Series, The Price Is Right instead of The New Price Is Right)
- Abbreviations or short titles (TPiR, WoF, LotHT, GUTS) should redirect to the appropriate game show, if the abbreviations are unambiguous.
- If a show has multiple runs under the same or similar titles (Match Game, Password), then, as a rule of thumb, the different versions should be put under the same title.
- If multiple unrelated shows share the same title, the shows should be listed separately, with the year of first premiere in parentheses following each title. (Ex. Break the Bank (1948), Break the Bank (1976) and Break the Bank (1985))
