Manual of Style
From Blankclubencyclopedia
Welcome to the Manual of Style. This is an example of a good article. It should have a reasonable opening paragraph, explaining briefly what the topic is. Don't forget to include and bold ('''bold text''') the title of the article in the first paragraph.
Contents |
Sections
Preferably, the article should have 3 or more sections. Obviously, if there is not enough information for a topic, you shouldn't just make some up, but what this prevents is a huge block of text.
Links
Use links as frequently as possible, but don't repeat. For example, if I were talking about Evan I would only link once and I would not link to Evan again.
Other stylistic things
Grammar and spelling mistakes are a big mistake. Always be sure an article is error free. Also, you can beautify articles with sublinks:
Ants
Ants are awesome!
Bees
Bees are the best!
Killer bees
AHHHHHHHH!
Cats
Cats are contagious! That makes no sense!
Finally, don't forget to use bulleted lists when necessary:
- Don't
- Forget
- To use
- These
- If
- Need
- Be
