This initial Manual of Style is a complete arbitrary decision by me, The Admin. | |||
== General Wiki Information == | |||
===Article Titles=== | |||
Article titles should be concise, straightforward, consistent, and precise. | |||
Articles should start with an uppercase letter, then all lowercase. | |||
Character articles should be referred to by their full name with middle initial, if known. For example: 'William J. Clarke' for William Joseph Clarke<br> | |||
Episode articles should follow the format of 'Episode_XXX'. Where 'XXX' is the number of the episode | |||
===Dates=== | |||
Dates within an article, or an article title should always be the fully written out word. | |||
<i> | |||
{{tick}} August 6, 2025<br> | |||
{{cross}} 2025-08-06 | |||
</i> | |||
When using dates in an article, any order of Date-Month-Year is acceptable, as long as it is written out. Do not use a leading zero for numbers in the single digits. | |||
<i> | |||
{{tick}} August 6, 2025(M-D-Y)<br> | |||
{{tick}} 6 Aug, 2025(D-m-Y)<br> | |||
{{tick}} 2025, Aug 6(Y-m-D)<br> | |||
{{cross}} August 06, 2025<br> | |||
</i> | |||
The month can be either long, '<i>August</i>', or short, <i>'Aug'</i>. | |||
If you're using numbers outside of an article context, and wish to use a number only format, Only use Y-M-D. | |||
And always include leading zeros. | |||
