Nookipedia talk:Manual of Style

Update date and time standards
I noticed that our Manual of Style allows for two different ways of writing both dates and times:  or   for dates and   or   for times. For the sake of consistency across Nookipedia, I propose that we change the date format to only  and the time format to. The proposed date format is what is already used pretty much exclusively here, and it is the standard in the United States. As for times, despite not being listed in the Manual of Style, the  format is already widely used across the wiki, including in our bug/fish/sea creature Cargo tables. ~ AlexBot2004  ( Talk ) 12:53, August 30, 2020 (EDT)
 * Thanks for bringing this up! Would be great to standardize. That all sounds good to me. I'd also like to get more specific for the time:
 * Top-of-the-hour should be written as a single number (e.g. 5 PM, not 5:00 PM)
 * AM/PM will have a non-breaking space before it.
 * For time ranges in prose, use "to" (e.g. )
 * For time ranges in tables, use an en-dash with surrounding spaces (e.g. )
 * I'm not totally attached to the above, if someone has other preferences. ~ Super  Hamster  Talk 13:16, August 30, 2020 (EDT)
 * I think those are all good points! If I have one suggestion, it's to write top-of-the-hour times fully only when used in a time range with a non-top-of-the-hour time for consistency, otherwise use a single digit (e.g.  or  )~  AlexBot2004  ( Talk ) 19:03, August 30, 2020 (EDT)
