Style Guide: Guest stars | ||||||||
The following is a style guide on how to create a high quality guest star page, and is part of our Manual of Style. Aims[edit]This style guide aims to help you write articles on all The Simpsons guest stars. Structure of an article[edit]Pre-empting all else, if the guest star voiced themselves or has appeared on the show (i.e. they have a character page), Infobox[edit]All guest stars articles must have this infobox: {{Guest Star |Name = Name |image = Image |Gender = Male or Female |Birth = |birthdate= If full date, and still alive, use <code>{{birthdate|year|month|day}}</code> |Death = If full birth and death date, use <code>{{deathdate|death year|month|day|birth year|month|date}}</code> |Nationality = Nationality |Claim to Fame = What they are known for |Character = Character(s) |Appearance = First appearance }} Information[edit]Our guest star articles follow a strict format. The paragraph should start with their full name, followed by their birth date, and if necessary death date, in brackets. Then their nationality and profession is mentioned. Afterwards mention their appearances on the show, and end with any additional information, for example their brother also appeared on the show. A good example can be seen below:
