[edit] Manual of Style

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia, as you did to Shadow of the Colossus, makes it harder to read. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Mr Stephen 15:01, 22 February 2007 (UTC)


If you assumed that I did not know that placing periods and commas outside quote marks was endorsed by Wikipedia, then you were correct. I had not believed these instances to be deliberate. I will respect the community's wishes, but I'd like to know which style it's from. I have read the manual of style's passage on quote marks. 12.144.50.221 17:26, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

I had indeed assumed that you were acting in good faith, and were trying to improve things. Where is it from? Sorry, can't help you. Maybe it's in the archives of the MOS talk pages. Mr Stephen 19:52, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
