User blog:StillAlive/How to make/add to episode transcripts

Episode transcripts have the entire dialogue of episodes. Certain things should be done when certain things happen. I will explain what to do when a certain even comes up.

When a character is talking:
 * if a character is talking, use only their first name, or their last, name, if that is what they are most often refered to as [e.g. Light Yagami = Light, Touta Matsuda = Matsuda]
 * add a link to character pages, but only when they first talk [or, if they are mentioned before they talk, then the link should be added there instead]
 * if a character is talking in a certain way [e.g. over a two-way radio, with a voice modifier, etc.] add this in the dialogue portion, not with the name [e.g. !Light |(over the phone)]. This goes for thinking as well
 * if the character is unnamed, say something about them to specify who is speaking [e.g. Student, Man, Woman, etc.]. If there is more than one person like this, then add numbers after [e.g. Student 3]

Transitions:
 * all transitions should be in the dialogue collum [e.g. ! |(the next day)]
 * when time has passed but we are still in the same place, please state this
 * if location changes, state this
 * if location changes and there is a page for said location, add a link
 * adding details like camera panning out, etc. is greaet

Actions:
 * if someone is sighing, laughing, scratching their head, etc. then add this in the dialogue section
 * if a long series of actions that refers to the actions of multiple individuals happens, give it it's own dialogue section
 * if someone says something off-screen, be sure to mention that
