The Layout Guide acts as a reference when writing an article in accordance with the structure that divides articles into sections based on their type.

Not all articles will require the use of all sections; for example, a character with only five seconds of screen time doesn't require the "Personality" section, nor do characters who lack special abilities or powers require the "Powers and Abilities" section, among many other examples.
