This page is for the community review of new guides. This is so the Guides page does not get filled up with nonsensical guides (like it was at one point,) and that their is a minimum standard of quality on the Guides page. Guides which pass this review have a template added to the page ({{GuideReviewed}}) and featured guides will have {{FeaturedGuide}} added to the page. Guides which do not pass a community review will not be added to the Guides page, but may still carry [[Category:Guides]]. This is so that guides that are deemed good and worthy by the community are easily findable by newer players, while less accurate guides can still be found, but aren't presented as prominently.

Guides are reviewed through a voting process. There are three eligible votes:

  • Support - to indicate support for the guide's inclusion on the page
  • Abstain - to not formally vote, but still offer input on the discussion
  • Against - to indicate disapproval for the guide's inclusion on the page

After one week, the votes will be tallied.

  • A guide which has more than 75% Support will be placed at a "Featured Guides" section at the top of the guides page
  • A guide which has more than 50% Support will be placed on the page, in the appropriate section (survivor, zombie, or player killer.)
  • A guide which has less than or equal to 50% Support will not be placed on the page
  • Guides which don't attract any votes will not be placed on the page

General criteria which should be considered before a guide is included on the page are:

  1. Formatting - There must be no obvious formatting errors in the text. The guide must work in all major browsers
  2. Accuracy - The guide must be accurate
  3. Clarity - The guide must be easy to read, with no obvious spelling or grammar errors.

Please note that neutrality and civility are not requirements.

Voting

Please add {{Guidesvoting}} on the guide before nominating it. Please inform the author if they are still active and can easily be found.

User:Grim s/Grims guide to staying alive

For

  1. I don't agree with this whole guide, but it's pretty comprehensive. Also a GA. Linkthewindow  Talk  08:03, 30 July 2009 (BST)
  2. It's actually useful and the fact that grim firmly stamped his mark on it only makes it more entertaining. --xoxo 15:01, 30 July 2009 (BST)
  3. Boring as hell and one of the few guides that would benefit from being cut in half. But I'm marginally for because there are enough good sections.--GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 23:55, 30 July 2009 (BST)
  4. Lots of good info to have, but it could use a trimming. --Kahazul 21:32, 31 July 2009 (BST)
  5. Quite possibly my favourite guide on the wiki. Comprehensive.-- Adward  14:09, 2 August 2009 (BST)
  6. --Bob Boberton TF / DW Littlemudkipsig.gif 03:01, 5 August 2009 (BST)

Against

  1. Way way way way way too self-indulgent. --Cyberbob 08:17, 30 July 2009 (BST)
  2. The same as above since the guide is often self-centered around that single player. Also the writer is an asshole but that only affects the guide by 98%. Aka Paradox 22:23, 30 July 2009 (BST)
  3. I voted this for GA because I found it funny and an interested read. Ironically, I couldn't vouch is as a guide. It's too long and >50% of the information is just common sense. --ϑϑℜ 03:43, 1 August 2009 (BST)
  4. -- THELORDGUNSLINGER 21:20, 1 August 2009 (BST)
  5. - Zzzzzzzzzzzzz. Kill it. -- | T | BALLS! | 21:36 1 August 2009(BST)
