Articles are generally snippets of information on a specific topic. They may contain sections and subsections if it's a particularly long topic, but it must not be overly broad and contain lots of factual information. Be '''objective''' in all things when authoring a bit of lore. This is a compendium of all the facts related to Achaea, so make sure you remain objective in tone and phrasing.

The articles in the "Help:" namespace are all imported directly from Achaea's help system. They are here for reference purposes, but are not meant to be the be-all and end-all of information about the subjects they touch upon. If you want to create, for example, an [Ashtan] page that lists more information about Ashtan than in [Help:Ashtan], go ahead. An Achaean Lore [Ashtan] page might list previous Overseers, Archons, and Divine Patrons of Ashtan, delve deeper into its history, link to a map, discuss its restaurants and shops, et cetera, information [Help:Ashtan] would not have.
