	This page has issues! This guide needs more content.

This page will gather some guidelines about styling while editing.

Capitalization

Capitalization of certain words should be consistent. Here are some examples of Fediverse projects:

First letter in upper case	CamelCase	all lower case	special
Fediverse Mastodon Pleroma Lemmy Pixelfed Funkwhale	WriteFreely PeerTube BookWyrm GoToSocial ActivityPub	lemmur	diaspora*

Capitalization of page titles

Generally each page title should (also has to) start with an uppercase letter. After that it should be capitalized like a sentence, so almost only words like the ones above should be capitalized.
A namespace is not part of the page title and also has to be capitalized. So an example for a category's full page name would be Category:Example category name about a Fediverse topic.

Unfortunately a lot of pages were created without following this guideline in the past. Please don't rename pages yourself, because that would break every time the page is linked to or similar. Instead let User:Paula know, so she will fix it.

Order of projects in lists and tables

The order of Fediverse projects in lists and tables should follow the order in Comparison of Fediverse software.
