Kimetsu no Yaiba Wiki:Manual of Style

This is the Manual of Style page for the Kimetsu no Yaiba Wikia. The following article contains information set as the guidelines that we use to keep articles structured in an organized fashion.

Writing Style

 * The content of this wiki must be expressed in English. This is an English language wiki and all edits are expected to be carried out in English, the sole exception is the use of Japanese Kanji and Romaji related the titles of content such as techniques, titles, names, or any other piece of determining content in the series.
 * The official ViZ translations are to be used for names of Styles, titles of Chapters, Volumes, and Characters.
 * The use of profanity, slang, and euphemisms in articles is not permitted, unless it is used under the context of quotes from characters.
 * Keep the tenses of articles/sections consistent.
 * History sections of character articles should be written in past tense. All other sections of an article, including chapter summaries, should be written in present tense.
 * If the content of a section of a chapter or episode is a flashback to a previous story point or the article of a deceased character, it should also be written in past tense.

Images and Media

 * See the Image Policy page for more information, or contact an admin for any questions or concerns.

Characters
Character pages should not be created before the character's name or alias has been revealed. Tabs and Subpages should only be added when a character's page has become extremely long due to a surplus of content.

If applicable, character pages should begin with a meaningful quote by the character. Then it should have a 1-2 sentence general description and the following headings should be used in order if applicable to the character:


 * The Infobox should contain this.
 * Appearance
 * Personality
 * History (if applicable)
 * Synopsis
 * Abilities and Powers (if applicable)
 * Battles (if applicable)
 * Relationships (if applicable)
 * Trivia (if applicable)
 * Quotes (if applicable)
 * References
 * Site Navigation

Chapters
On the infobox of a character page, only the raw (Japanese) cover of the chapter should be used. The cover page of a chapter is the one that has the chapter title on it, not necessarily the first page. New chapter pages should not be created before they're released by ViZ.

The following headings should be used in order:


 * The Infobox should contain this.
 * Summary
 * Characters by Order of Appearance
 * Events
 * Trivia
 * Navigation
 * References (if applicable)

Events
The Event pages should have a summary of what happened and the aftermath of it.


 * The Infobox should contain this.
 * Summary

Source Referencing
 
 * All information added to articles on this site must be referenced.
 * Every page which has a reference must contain a reference box, just copy the following code onto the bottom of the page:


 * The wiki's information should only come from manga, anime, official websites, official material, officially proven interviews and from Koyoharu Gotoge.
 * Although it will be acceptable to cite only the chapter as a reference, it is preferable to cite both chapter and page when referencing.
