Style guide
[edit]Article titles
[edit]- The bold text at the beginning of the article is the article name, and is to be used as the article title.
- If the article name ends in a period, drop the period unless it's an abbreviation like "&c." or "Abbr."
- If the article name is in Greek or another alphabet, then the article title will also be in the Greek or other alphabet.
- If the article name contains [square brackets], replace them with (parentheses).
- If the article name contains non-bold text, include that non-bold text in the title.
- Disambiguate articles the same way we disambiguate pages on Wikisource. Works by author, then by date; authors by dates of birth and death.
- If there is still question of how to proceed, discuss below.
Linking
[edit]This work mentions a lot of other works and authors. For the sake of expediency, linking should be kept to a minimum.
The following items should be linked:
- For articles about authors, the bold text at the beginning should link to the author page.
- For articles about hymns, the bold text should link to the work, and the author should be linked also.
- Lists of translations or editions should be linked
- Linking to other DoH articles should be done if this is obviously intended. Such links are often formatted [like this]. The template {{DoH lkpl}} can be used for the link itself.
Templates
[edit]See also: Category:DoH templates
- Use {{DoH footer initials}} for footer initials.
- Use formatting such as that generated by {{DoH header}} for page headers ... though whether the template itself is useful or not may be worth discussing further.
Formatting
[edit]- Follow the enWS MoS as much as possible
- See earlier pages for good formatting style
