Read the rules and look at other pages for examples on format.

So just like Wikipedia only so far there is not any real standards of format.
So far on the few pages that i have made I have tried to have a standard look to the pages I have made.

We follow a very basic format, although we all have a slightly different style. As long as you write the name properly, link the guns, actors, etc. and add a stand alone gun picture for comparison, you're in the clear.
What amazes me is User:Cutaway has been on the site almost since it started and he still posts like an anonymous user. UGH!

My basic format is to give a little blurb about the film then break the firearms down by catigory...ie. Pistols, SMGs, Shotguns, rifles ect.
As far as firearms pages I am giving some info about the firearm and then listing film tellivision and videogames. So far I have created pages for more unusual entries. heck I need to figure out a way to get DVD copies of a about three of my B grade films and then figure out a way to do screencaps.(Can we tell I prefer time on the range to time watching films?)

If you take screencaps from a DVD, make sure you cut off the widescreen bars. It is a pain to chop them off for other people and the page looks bad with widescreen shots.
I love shoooting, I'm about to go outside and put some rounds through a Smith & Wesson Model 14 Masterpiece - .38spl. The bluing is kind of smudgey because I didn't wipe it down one time and left it for a while but some PB blaster and 4-0 steal wool will fix it.

I feel that you have not been given a warm enough welcome yet, so, from me, WELCOME to the site!
 And yeah, I'll be the first to admit we are kinda fascist about users following page format nowadays, just cause we've had lots of people trying stuff that doesn't work and doesn't look good aesthetically. But being on the range is cool, too.
