Guide Submission:
Before submitting stuff to the guide, make sure it is accurate! If it's a quote your submitting, make sure the quote is as accurate as possible (don't just guess). It might be helpful to tape all the episodes (or buy the DVDs) and review the episode before submitting a quote. If it's an allusion you're submitting, provide a link to where I can find proof of the allusion. If it's a new episode title, you definitely have to provide a link!
If you spot any errors in the guides, please don't hesitate to fix them!
When submitting anything, paragraph tags ( and except without the apostrophes) are not necessary. All you need to do is enter the proper number of spaces in the submission box and it will show up that way in the guide (if accepted). For example, if this is what is you submit:
This will show up in the guide as:
Here are the proper formats for each of the items:
Quotes:
Quite simple here. Just try to be as accurate with your quotations as possible.
Speaker 1 (who they are talking to or what they are doing, etc.): Hi there.
Speaker 2: Howdy.
Example:
Notes:Notes are facts about an episode. It can be about anything about any character, place or whatever that was revealed in the episode. It can also be any of the following:
Hero Debut: Aang
Enemy Debut: Zhao
Creature Debut: Shirshu
Running Gags: [insert running joke in episode]
Look Hard: [insert something which may not be obvious to the average viewer]
If you can think of something else, either PM me about it, or just submit it and see what happens!
Allusions:Anything in the show that is related to something in the outside world.
Example:
The fighter Jun arm wrestles at the bar is based off various
Street Fighter 2 characters, such as Guile and Ryu.
or:
Zhao: My favorite show is
The Cosby Show.
Zhao is obviously referring to the 1980's sitcom
The Cosby Show.
Trivia:Trivia items should be goofs. Don't ask me why this category isn't titled just "Goofs" but we'll deal with it anyway.
This is just anything the writers or animators might have goofed up on. Example: In "
The Avatar State" Kyoshi is revealed to be the Avatar before Roku. However, in "
The Southern Air Temple", the statue next to Roku's is not of Avatar Kyoshi.
Episode Summaries/Recaps:Just format it like you would if you were writing a paper for school. Except it should be single spaced with no indentations. And not boring.
Episode Cast/Crew:This should only include official information from Nick, or that which was revealed on a star's personal blog, site, etc. Example: Daniel Samonas revealed several days before on his site that he would be voicing Teo in "
The Northern Air Temple" so it would have been acceptable to put his name in there. TVGuide.com is not always that reliable in terms of casting information.
