Editors writing articles should make their best effort to comply with the style guide but the priority should be adding content. Editors that notice articles deviating from the style guide should correct them. Failure to comply with the style guide is not grounds for having content removed.
Featured Articles
There is no minimum length for a Featured Article however the article must be written in complete English sentences. If a featured article grows beyond two pages in length consideration should be given to breaking it up into smaller articles.
Dot points must still be in complete English sentences but may lack trailing full stops. A set of dot points should be consistent in this matter.
Wiki
Wiki Links may point to the full name of organisations, events and phrases or abbreviations. Eg, Mike Buchanan's political party should be referred to as Justice for Men and Boys rather than J4MB even though the latter is in common use online.
Featured articles may have See Also and External Links sections. See Also contains other links on this wiki that are relevant or similar to the article. External Links contain URLs to an external site. Raw URLs must not be displayed. The External Links section must follow the See Also section. Subsections to each of these are permissible if the number of links justifies it.
The References section must be after External Links, with categories at the very bottom of the page.
Categories
Categories should be listed in alphabetical order. All categories should be part of a tree ending with the Wiki4Men category at the root.
An article that is still under development should be in the Draft Articles category. An article which is ready to be displayed should be in the Featured Articles category. Thus all articles should have at minimum one category, Draft Articles or Featured Articles.
The article should be in the most appropriate category based on subject matter and, where relevant, in the category of any countries it is associated with. There is no limitation on putting an article in multiple subject or country categories.
An article in the Featured Article category must confirm with the requirements for a Featured Article above.
