Apparently there's also a general "Fanimutations" category, but preferably, edit the [[Animutations List]] page and add it under the appropriate artist.

Here's a basic structure for movie pages. Edit this page to see the wiki-source, and copy everything below this line into the new page. Then you can start filling in content. In the information box immediately below, once you've pasted it into the new page, you can delete any lines that aren't applicable, such as uncommon ones like "subtitle."

About

A brief description of the movie.

Cast

  • Make a list of characters here.
  • If it is a specific character, enclose its name within the {{character}} template.
  • If it is a character that is generic, such as an animal, simply place it in the list without any links attached.

Notable Props

  • If there are any notable props, add them here.
  • For specific props, enclose the name within the {{prop}} template, otherwise simply place it in the list without any links attached.

Transcript

Put a detailed summary of the movie here.

Lyrics

Fake Lyrics Real Lyrics

Put the fake lyrics for the movie here.

Lyrics unchanged from the original
should go in italics. Have them in this column
anyway so everything will line up. However, if
the lyrics have hardly any fake lyrics, you
can simply make the unchanged lyric lines
blank.


Explicitly stated (i.e. subtitled)
fake lyrics should be bold.


Implied fake lyrics (either subtitled earlier
or represented graphically) should be plain.

Put the real lyrics to the song here, if possible.

No formatting is necessary.

Audio Details

Put detailed information about the soundtrack(s) here. The artist and title can go in the little information box at the top, but any other information, such as artist links or downloads, can go here.

Trivia

  • Put a list of fun facts about the movie
  • Hidden tracks, single-frame subliminal messages, etc.
  • Or any other interesting facts about it that wouldn't go in the summary or transcript.

External Links

  • Put a list of external links here.
  • Mainly, this will be sites where this movie can be viewed.
  • If the animutation is on Newgrounds, specify its Page ID number in the "newgrounds" parameter of the Animutation Infobox template above.
  • If the animutation is on Animutation Portal, specify its Page ID number in the "aniport" parameter of the Animutation Infobox template above.
  • If the animutation is on YouTube, specify its Movie ID in the "youtube" parameter of the Animutation Infobox template above.
  • If the animutation is hosted on any external sites, specify the URL in the "watch" parameter of the Animutation Infobox template above as [http://url/to/animutation.swf Site Name]. Up to 4 URLs can be specified using the additional paramters "watch2", "watch3", and "watch4".
  • It could also link to anything else of relevance. I'm not stopping you, I just can't think of any good examples.

Finally, put the page in some categories. They look like: [[Category:Whatever]] -- exactly like normal wiki links, but they won't show up as links; the program will handle everything, making a Categories bar at the bottom. Any special categories the animutation may belong to (other than the author and the characters appearing in it) should be placed here. Some examples are categorizing by the author of the music used (especially for popular artists such as Ome Henk), the absence of Colin Mochrie, if the animutation was written in something other than Flash, or "genre animutations" which portray some sort of story.
