Important Notes

 * Do not add any "font family spans" or spans that makes the letters more clearer. The reason is that it is hard for newcomers to edit the article pages that they love to edit, and so doing it, is just ruining it for them.
 * Do not leave the page blank or make any minor editing, the pages that you have created will be deleted.
 * Do not create a fan page or article pages containing fan images.
 * Do not create a gallery in each article pages.
 * Do not create a gallery page to show of images of a certain character of etc.

Writing Style

 * Articles should be written in British English, not US English.
 * Articles should be written in past-tense, not present or future tense.
 * We do not add "In Chapter ?? was said that", we are referencing the event.
 * We also doesn't add literally texts coming from the manga itself, that makes the pages more childish instead of serious or complex.

Wikitext Style

 * Do not make links like: allen walker or allen, make redirect links pages.
 * Do not bypass redirects as like Allen Walker just only Allen.
 * If you want to send any link to wikipedia, then do it like this page, instead of doing it like this: [http:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/page page]
