I'm thinking a little bit of structure will be good for certain articles, so people can think about potential sections to add for articles. So I think I will play around with some structure here, and then put it in some style guide eventually.

I don't think structure should be rigid, so if the topic doesn't include any information on a section, there's no need to include it.

Shards[edit]

In the introduction to Shard articles, mention what planet they are on, Shardholder, and other basic stuff. It should introduce the Shard's intent, because there should not be an intent section in this template.

Personality[edit]

Include the holder's known personality, how the holder interpret's Shard's intent, and any information on goals.

Abilities[edit]

While many abilities are shared with Shards, some have special talents. Write about that here.

Weaknesses[edit]

Some Shards have weaknesses. For example, Ruin and Preservation have particular weaknesses against each other because they are perfect opposites.

Influence[edit]

Discuss their relation to people culturally, magically, and otherwise.

History[edit]

If more in depth lore is known, use this section to write a detailed history.

Trivia[edit]

Random facts are always cool.

Quotes[edit]

Badass quotes made by the Shard, or about the Shard, are always cool.

Theories and Speculation[edit]

Common speculation on a Shard should be included. On articles without much information about a Shard, this can beef an article size significantly.
