The Vault:Terminal content policy

Raw Data

 * Raw data should be pulled directly from the game's files when practical and include the following information, where available: EditorID, FormID, contents, and any additional information pertinent for wiki use (such as model used).

Terminal pages layout

 * All pages containing terminal transcripts should be distinguished by the terminals suffix (or terminal, in case there is only a single one on-location), appended to the location name for the relevant terminal.
 * If the location name is unavailable, such as with generic terminals, a name describing its function is used.
 * Terminals are sorted according to relevancy. If relevance cannot be established clearly, alphabetic order is used.
 * Terminals use descriptive names, derived from their owner, content, function, or editor ID, for ease of navigation.
 * The name as it appears in the game, editor ID, and form ID should be noted.
 * Shared content should only be transcribed once per page and the contents linked to from relevant terminals.
 * Terminals with generic content, such as turret control, safe, door terminals, are linked to under a separate head, rather than transcribed in full.
 * If pages are difficult to navigate due to the amount of terminals, they should be divided into additional pages, distinguished by location (such as The Institute terminals (BioSciences) or H&H Tools Factory (upper floor)).

General guidelines

 * Navigation and usability are key. If the page is cluttered and the table of contents cannot be understood at a glance, the page requires revision.
 * Existing terminals pages should be converted to include Template:Terminal header and Template:Terminal submenu to properly distinguish individual terminals.
