Overview
- Write in Third Person
- All pages should be written in the third person point of view. Avoid using "I", "me", or "you" pronouns when writing articles. For example the sentence "I would recommend that you bring when playing tank characters." should be something more along the lines of " is an excellent card for tank characters." or "Due to tanks relying on their hp stat, it is advised the player bring ."
- Be Concise and Stay On Topic
- As this site serves as an encyclopedia of knowledge, articles should be written to focus on their topic. A little descriptive writing can make a page more palatable, but anecdotes, stories, and personal or unrelated information should be left out of informational pages.
- Need Help? Ask!
- If you are unsure on how to do something or need writing assistance, ask a wiki admin or the 100% Orange Juice Wiki Discord.
Terminology
- Unit: Any character that can participate in battle. This includes players, co-op bosses, encounter NPCs, and minions.
- Player: The unit that the player controls. This includes CPU-controlled units, but does not include units that can never be controlled by a player, such as a co-op boss.
- Field: The game environment in which matches take place. This includes the board, center deck, encounter NPCs, and field events.
- Board: The game board on which units move and interact.
- Panel: A space on the board that a unit can land on.
- Home: The player's starting point, where they can heal and achieve norma.
- Norma: Use this when possible when referring to the player's level. Use "achieve norma" over "level up" to avoid mixing the player's account level with their current norma level in game.
- HP, Max HP, ATK, DEF, EVD, REC, and MOV: The various stats a character can have.
- Hyper: A character's unique card that can only be drawn from the deck by that character.
- Passive: A character's passive effect, listed on their unit card. Only some characters have these.
Grammar/Diction Guidelines
Various guidelines to formatting special in-game terms, to provide consistency throughout the wiki.
- Never use words such as "health", "attack", "defense", "evasion", "recovery", or "movement" to refer to the character stats or stat buffs, to prevent ambiguity between the stats themselves and the actions of attacking, defending, recovering, moving, etc.
- Always capitalize the card types, which include the terms "Boost", "Battle", "Event", "Trap", "Gift", "Quest", "Bounty", and "Hyper", when referring to a card or contract.
- While not technically being card types, "Mushroom" and "Legendary Mushroom" cards should also be counted under this guideline when referring to those groups of cards as a whole.
- This guideline should only apply when referring to a card. Therefore, the trap and mushroom objects that can be found on the field should not be capitalized. Quests/bounties should also not be capitalized if referring to the objective and not the cards themselves (i.e. "completing a quest").
- This guideline does not apply to unit cards, unless you are using the specific terms "Unit (Player)" or "Unit (Enemy)".
- When referring to which side of battle a unit is on, do not use the terms "attacker" or "defender". Depending on context, the terms "opposing unit", "challenger/the challenged unit", or "the unit on the attacking/defending side of battle" should be used instead.
- Use the term "player" when describing the hypothetical player character in things such as card effect descriptions. Avoid the term "user".
- Use the term "trigger" when describing a panel or trap's effects taking place (i.e. "triggering a trap"). Avoid the term "activate", and be careful about using the term "land on" (as panels and traps can be landed on without being triggered).
- Be consistent about character pronouns. Use "it" instead of "he" or "she" for non-gendered characters, and refer to Mira as if referring to multiple people.

- Within an article:
<ref>Reference text, usually as an external link</ref>
- Once at the bottom of the page:
{{Reflist}}
See Help:Cite for additional examples.
Special Formatting
- Spoilers
- The
{{Spoiler}}
template is used to hide spoilers and other sensitive content. {{Spoiler|content to be hidden}}
content to be hidden
- On event pages, spoilers are used during the first week of an event to hide most or all new rewards in the page's Event Rewards section. The use of spoilers should be indicated with a note such as the following:
{{Hatnote|''(Due to Wiki policies on revealing event unlocks, all new rewards will be hidden behind a spoiler for the first week of the event.)''}}
- Spoilers are not necessary for returning items or shop items, or for global counter milestones (as those are represented with
???
until the reward is revealed in-game).
