Mystery Dungeon Franchise Wiki:Manual of Style (Editorializing)
As MDFW articles are meant to include verified, sourced information, Editorializing is not allowed in regular article pages, and is instead reserved for User or Community pages. Editorializing includes the editor's opinion, opinions of others (such as fan communities or external commentators), quality assessments, fan ideas, unmarked speculation, theories, and words such as:
- Curiously
- Interestingly
- Notably
- Oddly
- Strangely
- Surprisingly
which are unnecessary and don't positively contribute to the article overall. Such words are also often followed by the word "enough" (for example, "interestingly enough"), which should also be avoided.
Opinions by individual fans, larger fan communities, and external commentators such as reviewers big and small can still be featured on dedicated pages documenting community history and the perception of the Mystery Dungeon franchise worldwide across time.
This should further be extended to edit summaries. We generally prefer the edit to speak for itself, or the summary to be used to explain why a change was made. Personal remarks are unsavory and should be minimal or outright excluded entirely.
