Forum:Grammar and Spelling policy draft

Forums: Index > LIKE A BOSS! >

Hi. I'm Ozone and I am here to draft the new policy.

This is where the draft starts

You will use all your grammar/spelling knowledge to the max.

A sentence like this will NOT be tolerated:

mcdoodles is a food resterrant locate in United states antarctica.

That sentence is totally unacceptable.


 * Capital letters: You need them at the start of every sentence; names and proper nouns also need them.


 * Links: Links are a HUGE part of Wikia. We need them, the visitors need them: basically everyone need them. If you don't know what links are, look |here].


 * Punctuation: Commas, full stops (or period as the Americans call them), quotation marks, brackets ect. are a basic rule of the English language. It is YOUR responsibility to go to school and learn. If you are from a country and don't speak English, that is totally ok, you can just copy of other user's edits.


 * Spelling. Duh!, one of the basic rules of life is to LEARN how-to spell. Please, if you are not sure how to spell a word, ask someone, look it up on google, use a dictionary, yeah, you get the point. It is YOUR responsibility to go to school and learn. If you are from a country and don't speak English, that is totally ok, you can just copy of other user's edits.
 * Some words differ in spelling. The US might spell "color" like that, but Europeans and Australians don't. They spell it C-O-L-O-U-R, colour. If you're unsure which version to use, use the AMERICAN version. Wikia is based in the US, so please use their version.
