===For Techs/Elements===
Each technique, whether performed by a Playable Character, NPC, or Enemy receives an individual article. If a Tech of the same name is performed by a Character and an Enemy, join them into the same article with seperate infoboxes and images. Tech articles should be divided as such:
*'''Template''': for ''Chrono Trigger'' use {{tl|Infobox CT Tech|this}}, and for ''Chrono Cross'' use {{tl|Infobox CC Element|this}} or {{tl|Infobox CC Tech|this}}.
*'''Images''' of the character or enemy performing the tech. Both, if required.
*An ''Introduction'' which includes the page name in bold, the name of the game in italics, and brief information about the character/enemy that uses the tech, how the tech is acquired, and any special effects the tech causes, such as a [[Status Effect]] or pre-set damage.
*'''Description'''- under a separate, underlined header describe the animations that appear on screen when the tech is used.
*'''Strategy''' (if applicable) - Describe when and how this technique can be useful. See [[Hypnowave]] for more information on this.
*Repeat steps 1-5 if an enemies perform techs of the same name.
*Optional
**'''Trivia/Etymology/Name Origin''' - Why is the tech named this?
**'''Gallery''' - Does the tech have a long sequence of memorable images? Can the point be illustrated between with more images? Include them here. [[Medalsome]] is a good example of when adding galleries to Tech articles is appropriate.
**'''External Links''' - Is there a video demonstration of this tech on Youtube? Link to it here.
*Include a '''navigation bar''' at the end of each technique (one might possible need to be created for enemy techs; if so, include the appropriate next-best thing). Navigation templates to use: {{tl|CT Techs}} for ''Chrono Trigger'' and {{tl|CC Techs}} or {{tl|CC Elements}} for ''Chrono Cross''
