MUGEN Database:Stage articles

This page's purpose is to show you the basics of creating a stage article; the rest is up to you.

The first part is the name of the article. You have to name the article EXACLY how the stage itself is named (besides the capital letter at the begining of a title); this includes bad spelling/grammar unfortunately..."What if the stage hasn't got a name?" Well that's a pretty bad stage then :P

Now onto the article itself.

As with an M.U.G.E.N content article (characters, stages, motifs, etc.) you need an infobox. As be expected, the one for stages is. The image included in this infobox should be a screenshot (printscreen) of the stage as it appears in M.U.G.E.N. The image should not be any bigger than 640 x 480, so it is advised that you don't use M.U.G.E.N 1.0 (unless you've changed the screen size). To get the best results, you should hide the life and power bars, so that most of the stage is visible (you can do this by pressing Ctrl + L, providing that you have debug keys enabled). Below the image should be a caption saying "X" fighting "Y" on "Stage name". The rest is pretty much self-explanatory: The creator(s)'s name, the download link, and if the stage is animated, has BGM (Background Music), and has Super Jump enabled (you answer yes or no for these three. For resolution, you say whether it is high or low (high-res stages have very small pixels, while low-res stages have prominent or larger pixels).

The rest of the article is up to you, but remember to put the music of the stage (if it has any) under a "Music" headline, saying what the music is, were the music is from (or is some cases, what it is a remix of) and the music file in .ogg format (you can use Audacity to convert the music files to .ogg):

Music
The music used is the battle theme for Gateway Colosseum from Pokémon Battle Revolution.

And a "Videos" headline like you would with a character.

Make sure to add the Stages category and not the Characters category!
