NU carnival Wiki:New event guide

The following is a guide on what to do when there is a game update related to event, and how to create the article.

Articles

 * Promotional media

 * Current event page

Files

 * Thumbnails: landscape (example) and portrait (example)

 * Open "Announcements" page on the official website here.
 * Open the announcement about event "has arrived".

Determine the event type

 * Open "Memories" feature from the home screen of the game.
 * Go to tab "Events"
 * If the event can be found there, it belongs to and the code is 1. Otherwise, it belongs to  and the code is 0.

Update template
Insert the new event data after this table header, so newer updates will be on top.

Insert a new row and create a new switch by its event type. Use one of these options:
 * for event without scenes.
 * for event with scenes.

Inside the switch, after  sign, call  template with its parameter for event type code, ID, name, and period; followed by a named parameter   with value of the event start period date in YYYYMMDD format. For example:

If the current event is ongoing, inside the previous template call, add a new named parameter  with value of 1. For example:
 * ongoing=1

If the current event type code is 1, and the previous one is 0, create a new call of template, and move the whole switch as a parameter for it. For example:

Otherwise, move the whole switch and prepend it to the parameter of the first existing Trim template call. In other words, move the switch one line down, so it is become unseparated with the previous events.

Lastly, if the previous event is no longer ongoing, find template call below for that event, and remove the named parameter   with value of 1.

Update template
If the current event type code is 1, append the bulleted list to named parameter  of  template call with link to the event article or event transcript. For example:
 * Festive Glimmer

If the current event type code is 0, append the bulleted list to named parameter  of  template call with link to the event article. For example:
 * Lost Relics
