Okay, a few things.

1) It's a shipping wiki. Calm down.

2) Don't make things full paragraphs that don't actually take up that much time. Characters standing next to each other would not end up in canon but moments.

3) Don't put in the fanon section fanon for the individual characters. I see this a lot in the Ladybug pages where you'll bring up fan speculation for a character, and it has nothing to do with the ship. Or is just a general fandom theory that has nothing to do with shipping. This can go in the fanon section of the official Ladybug page (for general theories), or can go in the fanon section for the currently existing character pages (for character theories).

4) Don't over explain. Sometimes you'll do this thing where you overexplain situations and ideas. Normally this happens for crossover pages. Instead of saying something like "They have strong ties to their families" it ends up as "They have strong ties to their families; as Character A has [lists a million things that have nothing to do with the ship] and Character B has [lists a million things that also have nothing to do with the ship]. Sometimes less is better.

5) Don't overreach. Don't list simple things that people might have in common. The walking barefoot thing is one of those. As is the animal thing, as most non horrible human can be good with animals. Some of them end up feeling exagerated, since you'll give an example that is a core or very prevalent part of one character, and then was seen for five seconds with another character.

6) Don't set out to make character pages. If you are making a ship page, it doesn't have to be something you care about more than anything, but you shouldn't be making them just to get certain characters to have pages on the wiki.

7) I want you to really remember this one; Not every ship, needs to have a page. There is not a single fandom on this wiki that has every single ship page in blue, unless there is only one ship in the fandom. It's fine. As long as it's just listed that can be good enough. Especially for ships that don't have that many fans. Even then, I would rather have someone with more experience with the fandom for those ships come in a fill out the pages. Especially the fanon sections.

8) If I ever go back and look at something that I edited three months ago and said was fine, it's because I looked at it again and realized it needs work. Wiki is constantly changing, and sometimes things need to be updated and changed to make the pages better. I filled out the Symbrock page when the movie first came out, but then I also re-edited a month ago because it looked like a hot mess. It happens.

9) Please just know that if I'm not getting back to you it's a day where my brain can't handle any form of confrontation. I have days like that. And then also have bad memory and forget to talk to people when I'm in a better mood. Weirdly enough I can remember 90% of the episodes in Once Upon a Time, but I can't remember to text my boss back lol.
