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
 * Previous event article
 * Current event article
 * Current event transcript article

Files

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

Determine the event type

 * 1) Open "Memories" feature from the home screen of the game.
 * 2) Go to tab "Events"
 * 3) 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 events will be on top.

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

 After  inside the switch, call  template and fill the parameter with event type code, ID, name, and period. Also add named parameter  and fill it with event start period date in YYYYMMDD format. For example:

 If the current event is ongoing, inside that template, add named parameter  and fill it with 1. For example: |ongoing=1

 If the current event type code is 1 and the previous one is 0, surround the switch with a new call of template, so it will became the parameter of this template. For example:

Otherwise, move the switch one line down to prepend it to the parameter of the first existing Trim template, so the switch for this event is not separated with the previous events'.

 Lastly, if the previous event is no longer ongoing, find template for that event, and remove its named parameter. 

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

Otherwise, append a bulleted list of link to the event article to named parameter  of  template. For example: * Lost Relics
