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 simply the version number and letter, e.g. "0.100a". Don't use ".100a" or "100a" or "ver0.100a" in articles. The long way of referring to a version is "version 0.100a", with version uncapitalized (unless at the beginning of a sentence or as part of a header).
Pronouns
Use the proper noun "Urotsuki" or she/her pronouns when referring to actions done by or to Urotsuki. For example, Urotsuki falls asleep, not the player.
Note that this policy is contested in the cases of using effects and interacting with objects and NPCs, as it is something that Urotsuki does in-game, but it is also a choice made by the player, so it is up to the editor's discretion to decide, based on the context, when it is appropriate to refer to Urotsuki, and when it is appropriate to refer to the player. Individual articles should be consistent in this respect.
Use the phrase "the player" or 2nd person pronouns when referring to actions done by or to the player. For example, the player interacts with the user interface, such as menus, not Urotsuki. Another context in which 2nd person pronouns can be used is when something is visible on the screen, as it is the player that sees top-down view displayed on the screen.
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. For mazes, paths should be drawn from the entrance(s) of the world to its exit(s). This policy is especially important for maps with many entrances, exits, and teleporters.
Examples of free image editing and digital painting software are GIMP and Medibang.
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". The cut off is generally between twenty and twenty-one, because hyphenated numbers are best written using numerals for ease of reading and spelling. Exceptions can be made at the editor's discretion, but try to be consistent.
Galleries vs Slideshows
Outdated or Unused Content
Outdated or Unused content should go in the trivia section of the article if it is of interest to users, or else be removed completely. If a whole world is removed, then just remove connections to that world from the locationboxes of existing worlds, and note that the world was removed in its article's introductory paragraph. Don't remove connections to other worlds from the locationbox of the outdated world; that's just historical content, and belongs in the article.
