Other Notes:

• If you're going to do linking, hit the "Suggest Links" tool first. It'll keep you from having to manually add links.
• Like Wikipedia, try to only link the same page once on a given page. Don't have ten links to Patrick in the same page; it's distracting.
  • In the shownotes, link consistently. That is, link to the show hosts pages in the hosts section of the article.
• Alternatively, to quickly add a link, begin to type in the name of the page, or use the "find page" tool and choose the page from the menu. This saves time and, NLO_Tristan thinks, will keep the link accurate in case the target page ever moves.
• Linking makes updating info on other pages easier. If every episode with a secret segment links to the secret segment page, the "links to this page" at the bottom of every page makes it easier for someone to complete the list of every episode of when a secret segment occurred.
  
• Link sensibly. Though we have a Live Show page on the Wiki, is linking to it appropriate because a page has the phrase "live show" in it? Maybe, maybe not -- depends on the context.. Consider the relevance of your links rather than throwing them in haphazardly.
  • Definitely okay links to include: segments, references, hosts/guests, episode names.

• The Formatting Cannon gives a clear idea of what an ideal shownotes page should look like. Follow the structure on that page as closely as possible. Consistency formatting and page-structuring helps users read the pages more quickly.
• When doing show ingredients, be brief and informative. Show ingredients are meant to be skimmed by a reader who is looking for where/when a particular topic/event occurred. The show notes should never be a worthy substitute for the NLO listening experience.
  • As a rule of thumb try to fit the ingredient one line. If the description can't fit on one line, then it's either a significant event which merits more detail elsewhere (perhaps as a memorable event), a verbose description which requires some editing, or an event which should be broken up into smaller parts.
  • Use a shorthand ("Segment: blah blah blah") if the ingredient is a recurring NLO item. For example, Voicemail: "Bring Nick Starr back" or BPOW: Cruising With Susan.
  • You don't have cover every single aspect of the program. Basically, show ingredients should cover topics and segments. "BPOW: Cruising With Susan" is good enough. You don't need to list every complaint Patrick makes about the show. If there is a call during the BPOW (or topic), note it and just say something like "BPOW continues."
