'''name''' refers to the character's code-name. Their given name is listed as '''realname'''.

'''affiliation''' — Valid Affiliations are: [[G.I. Joe Team|G.I. Joe]], [[Cobra Command|Cobra]], [[Dreadnoks]], [[Iron Grenadiers]], [[Oktober Guard]], and [[Cobra-La]]. Other groups are probably valid, but perhaps should be discussed first.

All other fields are optional. It would be helpful to future editors to leave them present in the article code, however.

'''function''' refers to the role the character usually has, such as Saboteur or Machine Gunner.

'''birthplace''', '''serial''' (serial number), and '''rank''' would be available on the character's filecard. The '''MOS''' lines refer to first and second specialties, also from the filecard. Some of this information changes with reissued characters; please use a <nowiki><br></nowiki> to separate.

'''subgroup''' refers to internal groupings such as Tiger Force or Python Patrol, or sales groupings such as Star Brigade. '''previous''' refers to other allegiances, for example the character Mercer would be affiliated with G.I. Joe and have a previous of Cobra.

'''series''' can be used to note characters that appeared in Sigma 6. 

'''voiceby''' is for cartoon actors. Can also be used if voice is different than the actor portraying them in the movie.

'''actor''' is for live action movie actors.

'''debut''' is for the year the character first appeared in the toy line, not their debut on TV or in the comics.
