Writing style.

Writing style.

You should try writing in an encyclopedic manner. This means:

Nothing should be subjective or comparative unless completely necessary (write a page like the audience has no emotion and imply nothing).

Information should be conveyed in the fewest and simplest possible terms without losing any information or creating ambiguity.

Do not use bold and italics unless they are indicating something other than tone.

Group like information.

Adjectives should not be used except in indisputable cases (the usefulness or relative power of a skill is typically a matter of opinion).

Excessive backlinking should be avoided, users shouldn't have to go to 3 different pages to understand a single page. While its fine to turn skill names or statuses or items into links, avoid comparing one skill or item to another skill or item. An exception to this would be where a skill or item has an identical or nearly identical function to another.
