- Do use the {{songinfo}} action to include the artist, album, genre, and year for a song, rather than editing it into the main section of the article. Example: {{songinfo artist="Smash Mouth" album="Astrolounge" genre="Alternative Rock" year="1999"}}

Deletions:
- Do keep related information in just one wiki article as opposed to spread across multiple. For example, "TTFAF"∞ doesn't need it's own wiki article, any information contained would be better suited for the main song page∞.
- Do include links to existant topics that you mention in your article. For example, if you mention the song Jordan∞ from Guitar Hero II∞, make all instances of the word a link back to it's own topic.

Do's and Don't's

- Do keep related information in just one wiki article as opposed to spread across multiple. For example, [[http://wiki.scorehero.com/TTFAF∞
- Do provide a link to the original source of information when available to use as a reference. Many ScoreHero jokes and memes don't make much sense outside of their original context. Providing a link to the original occurrence would help alleviate that.
- Do include links to existant topics that you mention in your article. For example, if you mention the song Jordan∞ from Guitar Hero II∞, make all instances of the word a link back to it's own topic.
- Don't post tabs for songs. Those have always been more on the illegal side and are unnecessary on SHWiki.
- Don't post lyrics for songs UNLESS it is in relation to the vocal chart as found in the Rock Band platform or Guitar Hero World Tour. Be sure that the lyrics are accurate to the chart found in the game, some songs have had lyrical changes from their studio version, usually to conform to the T rating.[1]
- Don't create an article concerning a topic that is not related to ScoreHero, Guitar Hero or Rock Band. That's what Wikipedia∞ is for.
