====== Manual of Style ======

This is a namespace reserved for tutorials on the basic manual of style and considerations you should keep in mind while editing AH.com's wiki. This is less of a technical manual - like the [[wiki:syntax|official DokuWiki Editing Help pages]] are - and more of a "what to do and what not to do on the AH.com wiki", especially if you're a newbie.

These tutorials are here for you. They are not meant to rein you in or scare you away from editing. They're here to help you find more confidence in your editing and formatting abilities and help you learn them in a much quicker, more straightforward and less stressful way.
