Welcome to Owl City Wiki!! We're so happy you've decided to join us. Below is information on our style guide, including helpful templates for page creation.
Naming Files[]
In an effort to keep the system somewhat organized, please use the following naming conventions for files uploaded to the wiki.
Owl City Albums[]
- Album cover images are to be named with the following: OC-<number>.png
- PNG files are preferred!
- Album numbers are as follows:
- For Of June - OC-1.png and OC-1.alt.png (the alt cover is the original)
- For Maybe I'm Dreaming - OC-2.png and OC-2.alt.png (the alt cover is the original)
- For Ocean Eyes - OC-3.png and OC-3.alt.png (the alt cover is the deluxe version)
- For All Things Bright and Beautiful - OC-4.png

Owl City Singles[]
- Singles should be named with the album they originate from:
- Example: Fireflies, from Ocean Eyes, having been the lead single, should be OC-3.lead.png.
- Example: Shooting Star, from TMS, should be OC-5.single1.png, as it was not the lead single from that album.
- Example: Deer in the Headlights, from ATBAB, having been a promotional single, should be named OC-4.promo1.png, as there are two promotional singles from that album and Deer in the Headlights was released first.
- Singles not belonging to an album will be named <songname>.single.png.
Soundtrack and Promotional Songs[]
Songs not belonging to an album or EP, such as those released for a film soundtrack, will follow similar naming conventions to promotional singles in the movie/show.singlenumber.png format.
- Example: Shine Your Way is a song relased for the movie The Croods, and would be named croods.single1.png, as it's the first single from the album and is not affiliated with an Owl City album.
- Example: Waving Through a Window is a single released as a cover, and would be named dearevanhansen.single1.png
- Example: Up to the Cloud is a song released for a game called Neural Cloud. The album cover would be named neuralcloud.single.png
Remixes[]
Remixes not belonging to an album or EP will be named similarly to soundtrack songs, assuming they have their own album covers.
- Example: Saviour (Adam Young Remix) by LIGHTS, which was remixed by Adam Young, would be named saviour.remix.png.
- Example: Daydreams (Adam Young Remix) by Breanne Düren would be named daydreams.remix.png
- Example: Dementia, since it belongs to an OC album, would be named OC-5.remix1.png.
Demos[]
Demos will be named OC-Demo.<number>.png (such as OC-Demo.1.png) if they have their own album covers. Most demos will not need to have any pages or files attributed to them, however songs like Halcyon and Paper Tigers should recieve a page due to them being nearly complete tracks.
Songs by Other Artists[]
Songs by other artists featuring Owl City will be named with the album name. Example: Youtopia, which features Adam Young, will be named youtopia.single.png.
Album Pages[]
All album pages will eventually follow the same format, making the information easier for readers to consume and contributors to edit. Below is the bare-bones album page template. To see it in action, check out Coco Moon.
