The Manual of Style is a style guide for MTG Salvation Wiki and serves to standardize articles and other pages, with consistent and clear language, layout, and formatting, as much as practical, thereby improving article readability and, broadly, site quality.
In essence MTG Salvation follows the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. However this wiki has a few specialties which will be laid out in the next sections.
American English
American English is preferred, since Wizards is a U.S.-based company.
Magic Products in Italics
Magic, Magic: The Gathering as well as all related products are written in Italics.
Innistrad refers to the set, but Innistrad refers to the plane of the same name.
Note that the Innistrad block would not be capitalized, since it is not a magic product.
Epithets
Epithets should not be part of an article name or the character infobox, since characters can be represented by multiple cards with different epithets and it makes searching and linking more difficult.
Special Tools for Editors
- See also Help:Cheatsheet.
The Cheatsheet provides an overview how to display mana symbols (Template:WUBRG), link card or decks and how to
Card tags
- See also Help:Card tags.
Follow capitalization on the card. Also use the wiki card tag template for card names: <c>Dark Ritual</c> gives Dark Ritual.
Deck tags
- See also Help:Deck tags.
Within deck tags, add the appropriate card types and alphabetize cards within their card type. Card types should be in the following order, if found in that deck:
- Lands - This shows what colors the deck are right away.
- Creatures
- Planeswalkers
- Artifacts - Theses remaining are types by alphabetical order.
- Enchantments
- Instants
- Sorceries
- Sideboard - Last, but certainly not least of any deck.
