Doom Wiki:Style

The Doom Wiki is supposed to be like an "encyclopaedia" of everything Doom. Bear this in mind when writing articles. It helps if articles are written in a consistent style. Try to keep these rules in mind:


 * Do not use contractions. For example, instead of, "once a chaingunner starts, they'll keep on firing continuously", write "once a chaingunner starts, they will keep on firing continuously.
 * Write about the subject, do not write as though you are talking to the reader. For example, instead of, "imps will often launch fireballs at you", write "imps will often launch fireballs at the player".
 * Write in a Non-Point-Of-View (NPOV) style. If you are writing about a subject for which strong contradictory opinions exist, do not use the article as an opportunity to promote your point of view. Instead, give information about the differing points of view which exist and promote none of them.
