=Order of projects in lists and tables= | ==Naming scheme== | ||
* {{Ic|What is Fediverse project?}}, e.g. [[What is Mastodon?]] is the scheme for basic guides on Fediverse projects. | |||
* {{Ic|File:Fediverse project logo.svg}}, e.g. [[File:Mastodon logo.svg]] is the name of the official square logo of the project in color. If no svg is available, a png can be uploaded. | |||
* {{Ic|File:Fediverse project.svg}}, e.g. [[File:Mastodon.svg]] is the logo in black. | |||
* {{Ic|Fediverse project white.svg}}, e.g. [[File:Mastodon white.svg]] is the logo in white. | |||
* {{Ic|Fediverse project full logo.svg}}, e.g. [[File:Mastodon full logo.svg]] is a long version of the official logo in color if that exists. | |||
==Headlines== | |||
Usually we use {{Ic|<nowiki>==Headline==</nowiki>}} for the largest headline in an article and then add on {{Ic|=}} for each level below. In cases where it's needed another level {{Ic|=Headline=}} can be added above. | |||
==Order of projects in lists and tables== | |||
The order of Fediverse projects in lists and tables should follow the order in [[Comparison of Fediverse software]]. | The order of Fediverse projects in lists and tables should follow the order in [[Comparison of Fediverse software]]. | ||
