→Formatting titles of novels and short stories
I've noticed that you've been removing the formatting of work titles in your recent edits. The standard convention in English is that titles of stand alone works like novels or anthologies are italicized, and titles of shorter works like short stories are placed in double quotation marks. --[[User:Mikaka|Mikaka]] ([[User talk:Mikaka|talk]]) 16:54, 2 May 2025 (UTC)
*Hi! Considering that you are basically the only editor who does that, what that means that is the Lexicanum standard is different on every article. The majority of novel/short story pages does not currently contain italicizing. It doesn't really matter to me if we do it that way or some other way, as long as all us editors do it the same way. We can't have a system where articles look largely different depending on which editor that happened to pass by last.<br> If for example sourcing is stated in the citation rules to be written in a specific way then it should be done exactly that way by every editor, regardless of what format that is. Same with italicizing titles if we decide to change the current Lexicanum standard from not doing it, to instead starting to do it. You should speak with Inquisitor S if you want a new format to be followed, it is not really something up to us two regular editors to decide. --[[User:Librariusfunk|Librariusfunk]] ([[User talk:Librariusfunk|talk]]) 00:10, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
