The Manual of Style is the style guide for the 2b2t wiki.

Article Titles
A title should be a recognizable name or description of the topic that is natural, sufficiently precise, concise, and consistent with those of related articles.


 * 1) Titles are written in Sentence case. The initial letter of a title is almost always capitalized by default; otherwise, words are not capitalized unless they would be so in running text.
 * 2) Article titles are singular in form, e.g. Elytra, not Elytras.
 * 3) Avoid ambiguous abbreviations. Abbreviations and acronyms are often ambiguous and thus should be avoided unless the subject is known primarily by its abbreviation and that abbreviation is primarily associated with the subject. It is also unnecessary to include an acronym in addition to the name in a title. The only time in which where acronyms may be used is for parenthetical disambiguation where applicable.
 * 4) Do not use A, An, or The as the first word
 * 5) Normally use nouns or noun phrases
 * 6) Do not enclose titles in quotes
 * 7) Do not create subsidiary articles. Do not use titles suggesting that one article forms part of another: even if an article is considered subsidiary to another, it should be named independently.
 * 8) Do not use characters not on a standard English keyboard
 * 9) In titles describing two or more closely related or complementary concepts, the concepts should be arranged in alphabetical order and separated by 'ands', AVOID the use of commas
