Bleach Wiki:Grammar Corner

The Grammar Corner is a place where a group of users can get together and help maintain the wiki by keeping it free of incorrect grammar, syntax, tenses and the like. If you awaken the Grammar Nazi inside of you, you can help a lot here. It's an easy way to get the edit requirement needed to be in the wiki's chat. Also, note that you don't have to work on the articles listed here. Members can display the userbox on their userpage if they choose so.

Membership Rules

 * The Project head is the primary contact on grammar related issues. They have the final word on grammar related issues.
 * The Project head has the authority to coordinate grammar related work with other project members.
 * Any and all users can sign up to be a member of the Grammar Corner. If you would like to join, simply place your name in the list above. Once you sign up, begin working on any articles listed as being in need of work.
 * You must make at LEAST one grammar edit per month
 * All new members will start out as Initiates.
 * Because of how much traffic the High Priority articles tend to get, we value them looking great. Therefore, any member labelled as an "Initiate" will not be allowed to edit articles in the High Priority section.
 * To become a regular project member, you must make good grammar edits on 10 different articles.

Removal from the Grammar Corner

 * You are inactive in terms of grammatical edits for more than one month (Note: We will not penalize you for this if circumstances in your life prevent you from working.)
 * The edits have consistently been of bad grammar
 * You violate our policies
 * You repeatedly "edit fluff", meaning, you go to an article and edit each individual section rather than the entire article overall.
 * You ignore the High Priority articles

If you are to be found under one of these categories, Xilinoc or Kamikaze839 will notify you one week before they finalize their decision, so that you may redeem yourself. Note that in certain circumstances, such as a severe violation of policy, we will remove you without warning.

Procedures

 * After signing up for the Grammar Corner, take a look at the list of articles in need of work.
 * Find an article you want to work on and begin working.
 * Check each and every line in that article for spelling mistakes, grammar errors, and tense mistakes, and make sure the article follows the Bleach Wiki:Manual of Style.
 * Remember that Bleach Wiki uses American convention English. Please do your part to keep articles in this convention.
 * Once an article is done, simply remove it from the list and move on to another.
 * Just because you did an article in the past does not mean it does not need to be checked again if it is on the list again. Articles are always being updated and reworded, so grammar checks need to happen all the time.

Spelling in Words
There are many different types of English. Examples are American English and British English. To prevent this leading to conflicts, Bleach Wiki aims to be as native as possible, but the main use is American English. For more information, please see the examples below. Also see American and British English spelling differences on Wikipedia.

List of articles in need of work
Articles listed below are listed by their priority in needing completion. Those of high priority are in the most need of a thorough check as soon as possible due to the amount of editors the page gets. Those of low priority are low traffic articles that should be checked when there is time and after more pressing articles have been checked.

High Priority
Articles listed here have high traffic or are new, and thus need to be carefully checked for grammatical errors in order to maintain their quality. Also, since they get so many edits, they should not be removed after you're done. Please sign your name to show that you have edited it, and let another user go in and edit it, since they will probably grammar check it after more information has been added. Xilinoc or Kamikaze839 will check off the work before removing the article from the list. Note: Initiate members should not be editting these. Instead, see the Medium Priority. To remove your initiate status and be able to edit these, please make good grammar edits on any 10 articles (they don't have to be listed here).
