User talk:Declan/Style guide proposal

I think a lot of this stuff is either overly restrictive, already common sense/usage, dependant upon your location or unlikely to be used on the wiki. We also copy a lot of stuff verbatim from in game that conflicts with the instructions here. Also some things are already covered by (or in conflict with) guidelines like Guild Wars Wiki:Formatting/Article names or GWW:GENFORM. - B e X   08:50, 20 November 2007 (UTC)


 * You raise some really good points. This is just an example draft. The information here can be changed easily depending on established Wiki rules. I'm fairly new, so I didn't know where to look for all of the existing resources. I agree that a lot of this is common sense/usage. A style guide is just a repository for everyone to use the same common sense/usage. I also found that ArenaNet uses inconsistent styles, so copying verbatim changes depending on gameplay manual and Campaign. Declan 22:25, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Most of us won't ever needed, but it's not a bad idea to have it around in case someone does.reanor 22:31, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
