Grammar[]

  • Use proper English grammar and spelling.
  • Try to be clear and concise - if you can say it in fewer words, or make it easier to understand for the layman, then do so.
  • Avoid informal or subjective language (i.e. 'Wing blocks are the coolest block ever!!!').
  • Use third-person language ('the user'), or second-person language ('you') if absolutely necessary. Do not use first-person language ('I').

Formatting[]

  • Article Titles Should Use Title Case.
  • Article headings should be Level 2 (==) or less, should not use any emphasis (Bold, Italic, Underline), and should not be a hyperlink.

Structuring[]

  • Use suitable headings to separate content on long pages (i.e. longer than a few paragraphs).
  • Use images to illustrate how things work.

Status Templates[]

See Category:Templates for information on templates.
