The Official Style Guide for WikiProject Cocktails
Section: Contents
[edit] Disclaimer
It should be very clear from the start that this Guide only supplements the official Wikipedia Style Guide, and that all official Wikipedia policies and generally agreed upon guidelines should be followed. There are, however, many situations that are somewhat unique to the Mixed Drinks/Cocktails area within Wikipedia, and this Guide provides guidance and a common set of standards in those situations. To be perfectly clear: official Wikipedia policy always takes precedence over this Guide, and recommended Wikipedia-wide conventions should always be given equal, if not greater, consideration over anything that might be stated herein. Finally, bend these rules when it makes sense, but only if no other solution can be found.
