Help:格式手冊簡介/5
The MoS contains extensive guidelines on all manner of stylistic points. Below are a sample of the sorts of things you can search for advice on.
語言
中文維基百科使用現代標準漢語作為撰寫規範。在文字方面，您可以使用繁體字或簡化字，中文維基百科有一套繁簡與地區詞轉換系統能將您輸入的文字轉換成您或讀者慣用的用詞與字體。如無正當理由（如實質修改內文、修復轉換錯誤等），則不應更動編輯模式下的繁簡與地區詞文字。
日期與數字
請避免使用確切日期與時間以外的用詞（例如「近期」、「最近」等）。
Write number 1 or No. 1, not #1. Comic books are an exception.
一萬兩千的阿拉伯數字請寫成12,000、1萬2000或1萬2,000，而不是12000。
Both 10 June 1921 and June 10, 1921, are correct, but should be consistent within an article. A comma is not used if only the month is given, such as June 1921.
400 AD and 400 BC are correct; but so are 400 CE and 400 BCE. As always, use one style consistently in an article.
Use one, two, three, ..., eight, nine in normal article text, not 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 (although there are many exceptional circumstances; and some other numbers may be written as words also).
字母大寫
Seasons (e.g. winter) and plants/animal names (e.g. black bear) are not capitalised. Exceptions include scientific names (Felis catus) and proper nouns occurring as part of a name.
Names of scriptures are capitalised (e.g. Bible and Qur'an, but not biblical). Always capitalise God when it refers to a primary or only deity, but not pronouns that refer to deities: he not He.
縮寫
To indicate approximately, the non-italicized abbreviation c. (followed by a space) is preferred over circa, ca., or approx.
Write US or U.S., but not USA.
Use "and" instead of the "&" sign, except in tables, infoboxes, and official names like AT&T.
標點符號
Use straight quote marks " and apostrophes ' as available from the keyboard, and not alternatives such as “ ” and ‘ ’.
Italicize names of books, films, TV series, music albums, paintings, and ships—but not short works like songs or poems, which should be in quotation marks.
Place a full stop (a period) or a comma before a closing quotation mark if it belongs as part of the quoted material; otherwise put it after: The word carefree means "happy". But She said, "I'm feeling carefree." (Please do so irrespective of any rules associated with the variety of English in use.)
The serial comma (for example the comma before and in "ham, chips, and eggs") is optional; be sensitive to possible ambiguity from thoughtless use or thoughtless avoidance.
Avoid comma splices.
Picture captions should not end in a full stop (a period) unless they are complete sentences.
Avoid using a hyphen after a standard -ly adverb (a newly available home).
A hyphen is not a dash. Hyphens are used within words or to join words, but not in punctuating the parts of a sentence. Use an en dash (–) with before and a space after; or use an em dash (—) without spaces (see Wikipedia:How to make dashes). Avoid using two hyphens (--) to make a dash; and avoid using a hyphen for a minus sign.
Use an en dash, not a hyphen, between numbers: pp. 14–21; 1953–2008. An en dash is also to connect parallel terms: red–green colorblind; a New York–London flight. Use spaces around the en dash only if the connected terms are multi-unit dates: January 1999 – December 2000.
不換行空格
Line breaks can be prevented between words by inserting a non-breaking space, , in stead of an ordinary space. This avoids lines from ending in the middle of expressions like 17 kg, AD 565, £11 billion, 4月 2025, 5° 24′ 21.12″ N, Boeing 747, and World War II. Use in the same way inside a wikilink. (An alternative: enclose the whole expression using the template {{nowrap}}.)
