The following is a sample character article for the wiki to try and standardize the layout of like articles without having to constantly reference other places during page creation.
HTML comments (these ASCII arrow looking things: <!-- example -->
) are used to allow contributors to see this sample as a blank and focus on the overall structure by hiding most of the text from view, to prevent being blindsided by details they don't need to read until they decide for themselves to use this sample as an outline. This also reduces the likelihood of visible placeholder text in articles by negligent or forgetful contributors.
If you're ready for more details, edit or otherwise view this page's source to read commented out information about what to put in each section. When copying this sample, edit out this uncommented sentence to make sure there is no (visible) placeholder in your articles that use this sample.
