General style guide
- each page answers a single question -- e.g. how do I find a list of Riverdale Google Calendars
- it is not a catch-all for everything about a subject -- other question means another page
- except for our Get help from Google page, which is a catch-all
- it is not a catch-all for everything about a subject -- other question means another page
- each page starts with an {{abox}} and ends with a {{CategoryTemplate}}
- inline images (for instructions) are now added in a very particular way, with a variation of this code:
- [[File:Interesting cal.png|thumbnail]]Here's a picture of what you should do<br clear="all">
- which gives you this, including the open space before the next instruction:
- Here's a picture of what you should do
- Here's a picture of what you should do
- plus you can alter the size of the images by adding "|100px" (or another size) as follows:
- [[File:Interesting cal.png|thumbnail|100px]]
- to get this:
- Here's a tiny image. It's cheaper that way.
- Here's a tiny image. It's cheaper that way.
See this example for a guide to our style.
Article Templates
- {{abox}}
- used on every Article to indicate authorship, currency, audience, etc.

- {{SS}}
- Adds Article to Category:Software and Services, and inserts a list of other Articles in that Category.
