CubexCursedxCurious:Style and Terminology Guidelines
Style and terminology guidelines for C3 - Cube x Cursed x Curious.
Feel free to offer suggestions on the Talk Page.
Narrative Voice
Narration is written in third person, past tense, except for the occasional interjected thought.
Sections Within Chapters
The novel actually divides its sections using the † symbol, but numbered parts will be used to facilitate editing and updating.
Line Spacing
Single blank lines between paragraphs.
Two blank lines before and after emphasized sentences (these sentences are preceded and succeeded by a single blank line in the original text).
Three blank lines for scene changes.
Image Placement
Unless there are compelling reasons, images will be positioned where page breaks occur in the original Japanese text.
Chapter Titles
Chapter titles in the C3 series consist of two parts: a title in Japanese accompanied by an English quote. The Japanese titles (translated) will be used on the main page. The English quote will be included in the title on the wiki page of the chapter itself, unmodified except for blatant misspellings.
