This guideline is in progress and should not yet be recognized as being official.

General style guidelines

Bold and italics

Instead of

Midnight Sun was an expected companion novel to the book...

Thumbnails

Thumbnails should not have a size parameter, such as [[File:Example.jpg|thumb|215px]]. The thumb should only stand like this [[File:Example.jpg|thumb]]. This way, the size of the thumbnails can be adjusted by users in their preferences.
