== Writing style ==
== Writing style ==


Is there any more advice on writing style, other than what is on this page? I was thinking about changing [[Paper_Mario/Prologue:_A_Plea_from_the_Stars]] from its current confused mix of past and present tense, and its current mixture of "Mario does this" and "You do this", but I wasn't sure if there was a preferred style. Should the style be imperative (I think that's the right word), i.e. "Do this, go there, pick up the other"? [[User:Pelago|Pelago]] 15:56, 13 July 2007 (CDT)

Should the style be imperative (I think that's the right word) and refer to the main player character as "you", i.e. "Go there, do this, defend yourself against, etc"?
