Use the following template:

{{skill
    |name=Limetasticality
    |source=Lime Trainer
    |class=[[lime|Limeface]]
    |level=42|description=Your deoxygenated blood ... alert than usually.
    |effect=[[Combat Initiative]] +100%
    |type=Buff
    |mpcost=19
    |price=83 Meat}}

• Name: What the skill is called.
• Source: Guild trainer? Gnomes? Starting skill?
• Class: Characer class (if applicable).
• Level: Level at which skill can be acquired (if applicable).
• Description: The official description of the skill, as found in the Kingdom.
• Effect: The actual effect, in terms of game mechanics, the player experiences. For consistency, effects listed in this section should be written in the form that item enchantments are written in-game. Those listed should also link an apprpriate Game Mechanics page. For example:
  • Muscle +100 (links to Muscle Modifiers)
  • +10% Meat from Monsters (links to Meat from Monsters)
  • 2x Chance of Critical Hit (links to Critical Hit Chance)
  • Spell Damage +10 (links to Bonus Spell Damage)
• Type: Buff? Passive? Combat?
• MPCost: How many MP the skill uses (if applicable).
• Price: How much the skill costs to learn (if applicable).

The above example yields:

MP Cost: 19
