Articles can use any type of English they want. It is okay to use [[Wikipedia:American English|American English]], [[Wikipedia:British English|British English]], or any variant of English. However, once an article has begun in one style of English, the entire article should stick to that variant of English for consistency.


Definitely feel free to ignore anything that is more related to being an encyclopedia, we are not an encyclopedia, we are a vision improvement resource, first and foremost, full of funny jokes. You will find a lot of information about how to stylise articles in a cool way there though.

====EndMyopia capitalisation====
There is an apparent consensus at the time of writing that 'EndMyopia' should be the consistent capitalisation of how the name is referenced. Please refrain from using different capitalisations when referring to EndMyopia in articles.
As per community consensus, the capitalisation of the name should be 'EndMyopia' in all articles for consistency.

Article titles, terminology used and concepts related to vision improvement should go by their '''common name''' as the majority of [[EndMyopian]]s would say it.
