Topic on All The Tropes talk:Style Guide

... more information on actually writing the text of the page, along the lines of:

• Several/many brisk paragraphs are better than one solid block of text.
• "Voice": breezy and informal, not academic, but not in the first person either.
• Proper handling of work titles: double quotes for short stories, songs, episode names, etc.; italics on titles of books, movies, albums, TV shows.

I'm sure there are more -- I know they're scattered all over the place in other ATT: pages; we need to consolidate them so we can point users at them easily.

Just bumping this thread.

Okay, okay... New section "The Basics", with everything listed above and a reminder that all-caps means "shouting" on the 'net.

Should anything else go in that section?

Let me think on it. I'm sure there's something useful I didn't put in that first post that isn't occurring to me at the moment.

And whaddaya know? In the last couple months, there were things that weren't occurring to me...

Bumping this in case there's anything else that should be added.
