Regarding grammar on quotes pages
Be careful when editing those pages - unlike the other articles, the spelling and grammar used there is as it is from the game files themselves and should be type as it is accordingly. :o Sera404 20:34, November 24, 2010 (UTC)

Oh! Okay, okay, sorry about that! I didn't get exactly what that meant at the top of the quotes page, but all right! Sorry!Jordan Woolf 21:57, January 2, 2011 (UTC)--

Regarding
This particular code is intended for a reason. It tells the Wikia to create another paragraph in an article or so forth. Please keep this in mind before making edits. Lightna 14:07, February 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * In the Survivor articles, the reason why it's used is because natural paragraph breaks can't be used in bulletpoint notes. Sera404 16:24, February 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * The  is used in the Left 4 Dead Survivor pages.  Another editor had problems with this - are you using something other than Firefox?  Sera404 08:45, February 25, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Janitor
Please see this link. I will contact Jo for her opinion as well. Sera404 22:07, February 27, 2011 (UTC)

British English usage
While it's preferable for American spelling (color over colour, etc), remember that it's also a English Left 4 Dead wiki, which means don't over-Americanise stuff with phrases. If you can, try to pick something which can be understood by anyone speaking English. Sera404 22:43, April 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Wikipedia is different, generally, it favours the first person who created the article, unless discussion goes ahead that it's better for the article to follow the choice of English which the article is based on (in your case, a Canadian show would better serve having Canadian English). This is because while Wikipedia was created by Americans, it basically has a worldwide audience.  You'll probably note that almost all articles based on UK people and places (such as say, English royalty or London) use British English on wikipedia. But yes, British phrases should be changed to something universal if possible.  As for why American English spelling, it's because Left 4 Dead is American in origin, plus, the creator of the wiki is American too.  :o  Sera404 14:24, April 20, 2011 (UTC)
