A major issue facing PCGamingWiki (or any wiki, for that matter) is consistency. Due to the open nature of the site, quality in content can vary wildly with screenshots, step-by-step fixes, table notes, and numerous other elements that make up an article.
The following guide is meant to serve as a constant framework for all edits and article creation on the wiki.
This guide assumes that the reader has already looked at the sample article. It explains all the basics of the tables and provides bare-bones editing guidelines.
