Style Guide

The following is a guide to creating or editing pages in the Boundless Wiki in accordance with the established article style. It describes accepted and established practices in the Boundless Wiki, and should not be used to impose changes to the wiki. These guidelines are not set in stone, but they should generally be followed in order to maintain consistency across pages, unless there is a good reason to make an exception.

General guidelines

 * Use British English. The developers of he game are British, and much of the descriptive test presented in-game is in British English.  For consistency between the Wiki and the Game, use British English.
 * The name of the page should be singular even if it is about a collection of items which are named differently (e.g. Tool).
 * All item names should be capitalized as in-game (e.g. Iron Heavy Hammer).
 * The first instance of an item name on a page should always be linked, via double brackets (eg. ). Further mentions of the same item should generally not be linked, though multiple identical links can exist if they occur far from each other and would be helpful to readers. An example might be one link in the introductory section along with an identical link in a section, table, or template occurring further down. Duplicate links may be especially helpful on larger pages that would require scrolling to find an item's first mention.
 * Be sure to read the page before editing.

Formatting guidelines

 * The first instance of the page title should be bold. This should usually be in the first sentence of the article. No other instance of the page title should be bold. To make a word or phrase bold, place three apostrophes (') on each side. For example:  . Bold print should usually be avoided for emphasis on other words. Instead, italic print (two apostrophes) is preferred.
