Good stuff there. Of course it should be Manual of style/Draft but we can let that go as it's not really an article. It should ideally be a Project: page. Why, incidentally, does it not link automatically to what should be its basepage, Manual of Style?

:Good suggestions. In my research, I found that there is no consistant place other wikis put their MOS. So would you like something like Project:Manual of Style/Draft, instead of what we have right now?

::[[Project:Manual of style/Draft]] would be better, because it doesn't belong in the main (encyclopedic article) namespace. Fandom itself seems to have given up offering a manual of style, but on Community Central (and on Wikipedia) guidelines for editors are generally in the Project (or Help) namespace. https://community.fandom.com/index.php?title=Special%3AAllPages&from=manual&to=&namespace=4 --- [[User:Robin Patterson|Robin Patterson]] ([[User talk:Robin Patterson|Talk]]) 09:28, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
