*There's a nifty bit of wiki code that can be put in the ''Number of Pages'' column that will automatically update the number of pages based on the count on the story's category page. If it sounds complicated, it's not. Just copy and paste this: <nowiki>{{PAGESINCAT:}}</nowiki>. Put the title of your Category page between the : and the }}.

Just spent about five hours cleaning up this page. Yes, I can be a little OCD sometimes, lol.

Here are some suggestions for keeping it tidy and formatting new stories consistently:

  • Titles should not be IN ALL CAPS. The first letter of each word Should Be Capitalized, unless it's a word like a, the, or, or to, except when it's the first word. Example: The Day the Earth Stood Still
  • If you want to put something in parenthesis after your title, put it outside of the brackets so it doesn't become part of the link. Example: [[My New Boyfriend]] (Gay)
  • When putting titles in alphabetical order, don't count words like A, An or The. So a story called The Beggar would go under B and A Sex Adventure would go under S.
  • Also the Category page should have the same name as the title of the story. Capitalization counts! One exception to this is if you have a really long title, like How I Seduced My Teacher and Won the Lottery. You don't want to have to type that on every page you create, so an acronym would would better, like HISMTWL or something like that.
