==='''Sufficiency'''===
* '''Sufficiency:''' The article should have sufficient information. Add the required information if you know it.
Sufficiency refers to how large the information of the subject or topic is. In order to properly provide the readers with information, there should be sufficient information so that the readers would be able to understand the said subject or topic.
* '''Relevance:''' The article should contain relevant information. Do not add useless or unrelated information.
* '''Neatness:''' Information should not be scattered around the page. It should be easy to read.
* '''Language:''' Please be aware of any grammar, punctuation and sentence-structuring errors.
* '''Neutral Point of View:''' Avoid adding your own opinion. Be neutral and add objective information.


If a page lacks sufficient information, it is classified as a stub. If you come across an article that you think is a stub, you have the responsibility to add the required information. If you do not have the knowledge of the information, you may add the template '''<nowiki>{</nowiki>{stub}}''' on the page.
=='''Standard Page Layout'''==
 
==='''Relevance'''===
Relevance refers to the importance of the stated information in the articles. An article should contain information that is relevant to the subject or topic. Information that are useless or are not related to the subject or topic should be removed.
 
==='''Neatness'''===
Neatness refers to how clean the article is written. The written information should not be scattered around the page. It should be user-friendly and easy to read.
 
==='''Language'''===
Language refers to how accurate the article is in terms of English. It should contain minimal amounts of grammar, punctuation and sentence-structuring errors. This is not punishable but it is highly recommended that you practice it.
 
Language also refers to the words used. It should not contain any inappropriate words. This, unlike the first point, is punishable. Any user who attempts to pollute the articles with vulgarities will be dealt with accordingly.
 
Though the readers and editors of Growtopia Wiki may speak many varieties of English, standard American English spelling, grammar, punctuation, and word usage is mandated here. However if any items use British words in its words and name, the British one is the one to be preserved.
