The Manual of Style of this wiki aims to provide all needed information on what this wiki expects from all editors when editing as well as setting a consistent writing style for all wiki articles. All editors are responsible for knowing and fully understanding this manual. Not editing accordingly to this manual may result in punishments issued to your account according to our rules.

As a reminder:
 * All articles need to follow our policies as well.

 * If there is a Korean translation (albums, songs, etc), please make sure to add it.
 * Always use full sentences and capitalize the beginning of each sentence. Make sure to use the appropriate punctuation.
 * Properly capitalize words and avoid unnecessary capitalization.
 * Use the long version of words like "it's" and "wouldn't" (e.g. "it is" instead of "it's", "would not" instead of "wouldn't").

They should not contain obvious, subjective, or untrue information, and they should not restate what was already covered in the article. They are still to be held up to the same standards as other information on the wiki.
