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>


This initial Manual of Style is a complete arbitrary decision by me, The Admin.
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.




Do not use personal pronouns in this wiki.
==Specific Page Templates/Examples==
With the exception of quotes, person pronouns should never be used in this wiki.
