The developer or publishing company article contains,

  • This company's info card (#1 in image shown above). Added with {{CompanyInfo}} (template info). Using this template automatically add the main article to the Game Company category so that it is shown under Companies on the front page
  • This company's related info navigation card (#2 in image shown above). Added with {{gamecompany}} (template info). It references a template (need to be created seperately) to displays a list of featured games.


A Step-by-Step guide

In this tutorial we'll use the KISS company as an example.

1. The easiest way to create a page is to create a link to it somewhere and clicking the link. Internal links are put between double square brackets ([[...]]. So using [[KISS]] results in KISS. You can also change the URL in your browser to point to it, e.g. http://wiki.anime-sharing.com/hgames/index.php?title=KISS to go to and create the page.

2. Hit "Create" to create the page

3. Add template {{gamecompany|company=KISS|category=KISS Games}} or just {{gamecompany}} in this case because the article name is equal to the company name word by word.

4. You should see something like this when hitting "preview":

Notice the red link "Template:KISSGames" below "Featured games". This is where a list of games by that company will go later.

5. Add some basic information about the company. The page source may look like this later:

{{gamecompany|company=KISS|category=KISS Games}}

Website: [http://www.kisskiss.tv http://www.kisskiss.tv]

Welcome to the '''KISS''' page. This is a hub for [[wikipedia:eroge|eroges]] made by the Japanese company '''KISS'''.

6. Save/Publish the page

7. The created page now looks like this:

Note that using the {{gamecompany}} template automatically put the page in the category you have specified and in the Category:Game Company category.

8. To fill in the featured games list, in the navigation box click the red link "Template:KISSGames"

9. Create a list of games. There's only one game for KISS at the moment, so the list in this example is very short:

10. The added line starts with an '*', representing an unsorted list, followed by an internal link to a local wikipage.

11. Save the page and return to the company page. The Infobox now has a game listed and should look like this:
