I obviously couldn't do this by myself, and since this is a wikia, anybody can edit! All the titles I came up with are all derivative/conjectural, but I tried to be as close as possible to how the events unfolded. For quick encounters, "Skirmish" would be apt, for engagements that are relatively short, I use "Battle", for long, drawn-out conflicts that may or may not involve a large number of combatants, "War" would be more fitting. For events that involve an assassin or a single assailant with a purpose of quick attack, "Attack" or "Assassination" may suffice. For other events that could not be described by the above, just try to be creative but still be precise and concise (i.e., the Wrecking of the Impala).

I am only creating battle pages on major arc-related events, so as not to create a battle page for every encounter with every creature. For information that are from episodes without their own battle pages (due to not being arc-related), please use the 'Background' section of the page. For example, when dealing with a battle page involving Reapers and Death, you could cite previous episodes regarding reapers in the 'Background'. Since the first appearance of a reaper was in a non-arc episode (Faith), we could simply cite it in the background of, say, for example, the battle page on raising Death in Abandon All Hope.

The Conflict portion refers to the major reason of the battle (i.e., War of the Seals, Ushering the Apocalypse, Civil War of Heaven, Civil War of Hell, War for Purgatory Souls). Not all battles have to have a previous, concurrent or next battle. Some battles do not happen simultaneously with another, although some do (i.e., Attack on the Holts and Exchange at Lincoln). Some battles may be the resolution of the conflict, and thus would not have to have a next battle linked to it.

Please select an image that fits the battle information. If there are any more questions, I'll answer them when I get back. Cheers! FTWinchester (talk) 05:50, September 22, 2013 (UTC)
