User blog:Vimitsu/GOP Wiki Style Guide

A wide variety of terms and expressions is used when talking about GOP, but for the sake of standardisation I recommend adopting a standard system of writing to ensure clarity, precision, and eliminating confusion in general, as well as retaining a good image of being a neutral wiki. To begin with, we should do the following things:


 * Creating a Manual of Style for this particular wiki, standardising GOP terms and expressions.
 * Inheriting all usage recommendations from the Wikipedia Manual of Style, except where it conflicts with standards that we specifically define here.
 * Being as objective and neutral as possible, at least in main articles. This means avoiding the use of "should" or "ought". Being a neutral source for information is the point of any encyclopedia.
 * An exception could be a "Strategy" section, but these should be kept separate.
 * Avoiding the use of nonstandard spellings and other usages. Examples: "Nycce", "Ironfolk", "usefwl", "wonderfwl". This is not addressed to any user in particular. *cough*
