''[[Gammapedia:Curator|Curator]]'s note: Xavier Sample is not a character who exists in Gammasphere's canon. His purpose is merely to show an ideal character page.''

This page describes the '''style guideline for character pages'''.

Note that this is only a ''suggested'' format; you are free to adapt it into whatever fits your needs. Also, please note that because the [[Gammasphere]] is ever-evolving, characters can and are often modified and used beyond their original creators' intentions. The creator is usually given weight in debates concerning a character, but anyone who adds a character page to the [[Gammapedia]] agrees that their character may be altered by the community to suit the needs of the fictional universe.

See also [[Template:Infobox character]] for notes on infobox usage.
