==Grammar== Grammar is a writer's toolbox. You can't build good sentences without knowing how to use your tools. Since a wiki article must be as clear as possible for all the people reading it, editors must keep close to correct grammar standards to ensure clear communication. ===Capitalization=== Titles such as lord or king start with a capital letter when used as a title (followed by a name): "King Arthas", not "king Arthas". When used generically, they should be in lower case: "Furion is a powerful lord." The correct formal name of an office is treated as a proper noun. Hence: "Anduin is the current King of Stormwind." Classes should only be capitalized when used as a proper noun, i.e. as someone's name. ("Warlock, go be evil" versus "That warlock is quite evil.") <!-- WOWWIKI USES THE FOLLOWING SCHEME - CHECK FOR YOUR PARTICULAR GAME Races such as orc, human, troll or night elf should not be capitalized except when used as a proper noun or at the beginning of a sentence. Factions such as Forsaken, Alliance, Horde, or Argent Dawn should always be capitalized. --> ===Titles of works=== Italics are used for the titles of works, such as books and games. The titles of articles, chapters, and other short works are not italicized but are enclosed in double quotation marks. For example, italicize ''<nowiki>[[The Last Guardian]]</nowiki>'' and ''<nowiki>[[World of Warcraft]]</nowiki>'', and use quotes for "<nowiki>[[Arathor and the Troll Wars]]</nowiki>".
