This page is a style and formatting guideline on GuildWiki.

It has general acceptance among editors and is considered a standard to which articles should adhere. However, it is not set in stone and should be treated with common sense and the occasional exception.

This article provides a guideline to standard colors to use when highlighting sections of an article based upon profession referenced.

Standard color usage[]

Each profession is identified by a unique icon for that profession. In GuildWiki, the community has selected standard colors to use within articles to represent these professions as well.

	Background color	Border line color	color template
Warrior	#FF8	#EA3	Template:W-color
Ranger	#CF9	#5A0	Template:R-color
Monk	#ACF	#44B	Template:Mo-color
Necromancer	#9FC	#0A5	Template:N-color
Mesmer	#DAF	#80A	Template:Me-color
Elementalist	#FBB	#B33	Template:E-color
Assassin	#FCE	#A08	Template:A-color
Ritualist	#BFF	#0AA	Template:Rt-color
Paragon	#FC9	#960	Template:P-color
Dervish	#DDF	#77C	Template:D-color
none	#DDD	#666	Template:X-color

Templates[]

In order to simplify the usage of the standard colors and eliminate the need to memorise the codes, the community has also implemented templates to represent each color for each profession. These templates can be used to simplify the insertion of the standard colors into articles. Here is the usage structure for the templates (the template W-color is used in the example):

{{W-color|xxx}}

Where xxx is one of the following values:

light
background (same as light)
dark
border (same as dark)

Note: if not specified, the default value is light
