Numbers from 0-12 should be written out as words, e.g. "six" unless in a mathematical or statistical context. Large numbers should be written in using numerals, e.g. "123". This is because large numbers are hard to read out. The cut off is generally between twenty and twenty-one, because hyphenated numbers are best written using numerals for ease of reading and spelling. | |||

The Style Guide is a descriptive standard for Yume 2kki Wiki style, conventions, and formatting to help users edit consistently and in accordance with the preferences of our Wiki's editors. The proper venue to discuss these guidelines is in the talk page.
Version Numbers
The preferred way to refer to versions of Yume 2kki is "version 0.100a", with version uncapitalized (unless at the beginning of a sentence or as part of a header). To refer more briefly to a version, simply use "0.100a". Don't use ".100a" or "100a" or "ver0.100a" in articles.
Pronouns

Labelling World Maps
All world maps intended for use in navigation should have entrances from and exits to other worlds labelled. Teleporters and important items such as effects and notable NPCs should also be labelled.
Effects Capitalization
The capitalization for effects should be with the name of the effect capitalized, followed by the uncapitalized word "effect", e.g. "Wolf effect".
Naming Worlds
When naming a new world, the name of the world should generally be based on its Japanese name, which can be found in the changelog or by opening Yume 2kki using RPG Maker. There are many exceptions to this rule, such as if the name is too similar to another name, in which case it should be something else to avoid confusion, or if the Japanese name sounds awkward when translated into English, if the world is unnamed, or if it can't be translated for some reason. When creating a page for a world, it is good policy to check Map IDs and Version History to make sure the name is consistent across pages.
Writing Numbers
Numbers from 0-12 should be written out as words, e.g. "six" unless in a mathematical or statistical context. Large numbers should be written in using numerals, e.g. "123". This is because large numbers are hard to read out. The cut off is generally between twenty and twenty-one, because hyphenated numbers are best written using numerals for ease of reading and spelling.
