| | + | ==Info Panel Standard== |
| | + | |
| | + | All Original Source Project pages must include a right‑aligned informational panel at the top of the page. The purpose of the info panel is to provide consistent metadata, internal link structure, and navigational context for readers. The panel must follow the formatting rules below. |
| | + | |
| | + | ===Formatting Requirements=== |
| | + | * The panel must be created using a standard MediaWiki table. |
| | + | * The panel must float right. |
| | + | * Width should be approximately 260px. |
| | + | * Only ASCII characters may be used (classic culprits are smart characters such as apostrophes and speech marks). |
| | + | * No blockquotes, and no HTML outside the table structure. |
| | + | * All links must be internal Conservapedia links. |
| | + | |
| | + | ===Required Fields=== |
| | + | Each info panel must contain the following fields: |
| | + | |
| | + | * '''Title Header''' – The subject’s name (e.g., "Sir Isaac Newton"). |
| | + | * '''Title Header Link''' – Title headers should be linked to the author's page (e.g., Isaac Newton|Sir Isaac Newton). |
| | + | * '''Image''' – A Conservapedia‑hosted image, centred. |
| | + | * '''Born''' – Birth date and location. |
| | + | * '''Died''' – Death date and location. |
| | + | * '''Occupation''' – Primary roles or professions. |
| | + | * '''Known For''' – Key achievements or works. |
| | + | * '''Major Works''' – List of major publications or contributions. |
| | + | * '''Publication Notes''' – Notes relevant to the original source text. |
| | + | * '''Related Pages''' – Internal links to all chapters or related OS pages. |
| | + | |
| | + | ===Related Pages Section=== |
| | + | The “Related Pages” field must include internal links to: |
| | + | * All preceding chapters |
| | + | * The current chapter (if applicable) |
| | + | * Any directly related OS pages |
| | + | * Any relevant Conservapedia encyclopedia articles |
| | + | |
| | + | This ensures that each OS page participates in the internal link mesh that strengthens navigation, consistency, and SEO trust signals. |
| | + | |
| | + | ===Placement=== |
| | + | The info panel must appear: |
| | + | * Immediately below the page title |
| | + | * Before the introductory paragraph |
| | + | * Before any chapter text |
| | + | |
| | + | ===Purpose=== |
| | + | The info panel: |
| | + | * Provides consistent metadata across all OS pages |
| | + | * Creates predictable navigation for readers |
| | + | * Reinforces internal link structure |
| | + | * Supports Conservapedia’s educational mission |
| | + | * Strengthens SEO trust signals through structured content |
| | + | |
| | + | All contributors are encouraged to maintain this standard for every new Original Source Project page. |
| | + | |
| | + | |
| | + | ===Related Pages Section=== |
| | + | The “Related Pages” field must include internal links to: |
| | + | * All preceding chapters |
| | + | * The current chapter (if applicable) |
| | + | * Any directly related OS pages |
| | + | * Any relevant Conservapedia encyclopedia articles |
| | + | |
| | + | This section ensures that each OS page participates in the internal link mesh that strengthens navigation and SEO trust signals. |
| | + | |
| | + | ===Placement=== |
| | + | The info panel must appear: |
| | + | * Immediately below the page title |
| | + | * Before the introductory paragraph |
| | + | * Before any chapter text |
| | + | |
| | + | ===Example Panel=== |
| | + | Below is the standard template used for Newton’s ''Observations on Daniel'' pages; a live example can be found [[Original Source: Sir Isaac Newton - Observations on Daniel, Chapter 1|here]]. All future OS pages should follow this structure, adjusting fields as appropriate for the author or work. |
