We recommend the use of British English spelling (not to be confused with Elizabethian speech), as it follows with how the Dragon Quest series has been localized in newer releases (since 2006). For example, write "armour" instead of "armor", "defence" instead of "defense", etc. The purpose is to add a different and unique flavor to this wiki for material that can be found elsewhere - creating, in this way, a more enjoyable and memorable experience when using this wiki.
Unless otherwise noted, long-form dates should be written using international format (e.g. 17 March 2017). This makes them easier to read and requires no awkward punctuation. Short-form dates may be written with the year first, as this is a method used in cataloguing (e.g. 2017-03-17).
