Below is the style guide for the [[Main Page|HighSpell Wiki]].

* All article titles and spellings should mirror how they appear in-game first and foremost.

** E.g. "[[Helmet Of Melee]]" is how it appears in game, versus "Helmet of Melee".

* Articles written using Amercian English are preferred over other forms of English.

** E.g. Using the word "[[Chat Colors|color]]" instead of "colour".

* Avoid including punctuation in link text unless the punctuation is part of the noun itself.

** E.g. "Here's an article about [[squirrel|squirrels]]! Did you know that squirrels like to climb up [[Tree|trees]]?"

* Prefer numerals with Western delimiting commas over written numbers.

* Prefer numerals with Western delimiting commas over written numbers when the value is eleven (11) or higher.

** E.g. "50,000" instead of "fifty-thousand".

* Unless representing a specific item quantity or cost, in which case numerals under eleven are acceptable for clarity.

** E.g. "5 ×{{ItemIcon|Fire Scroll|size=24px}}" instead of "Five ×{{ItemIcon|Fire Scroll|size=24px}}"

* Use the DD-MM-YYYY format for numerical dates (e.g., 04-20-2021).

* Use the 'Month Day, Year' format for dates (e.g., April 20th, 2021).
