This article will explain the formatting [[Guild Wars 2 Wiki:practices and processes|practices and processes]] with regards to the documentation of [[Weapon|weapons]].<br />
<br />
== Dropping suffix from page title ==<br />
If the in game weapon name is for example "Giver's Wintergreen Greatsword of Chilling" the page title should be [[Giver's Wintergreen Greatsword]] dropping the part that accounts for the sigil.<br />
<br />
== Screenshots ==<br />
Screenshots should emphasize the subject and minimize other elements.<br />
<br />
* Take them in a well-lit setting, using a non-distracting background.<br />
** This is the reason why the preview panel is not a good choice - brown background and the lighting is off.<br />
** That said - if there is no image and you can only take a preview image - go ahead and upload it!<br />
* Remove any and all armor.<br />
** Armor can clip into the image; outfits remove some effects.<br />
* Preferably taken with a human female due to their lack of clipping.<br />
* Arrange so that narrow-profile weapons (e.g. staffs) are approximately level with the ground.<br />
* The same advice applies to underwater weapons.<br />
