I noticed that some articles use the period, and some the comma. I think that we should decide on one and add it to this style page.

I created this page as a place to lay out, in black and white, exactly what the preferred style of this wiki is. While there are some guidelines on the Complete DB page, I feel it would be better suited here and fleshed out more. Once this page is built, it should be linked from several other pages to direct new users on how to post information in the wiki.

How about putting this in Wurmpedia:Style ? --Lain Iwakura 00:34, 2 March 2006 (CST)

What is a breadcrumb? :S Ketza 23:37, 9 September 2006 (CDT)

Decimal Point?
I noticed that some articles use the period, and some the comma. I think that we should decide on one and add it to this style page. Jbobj 16:34, 2 October 2006 (CDT)
