I prepose that all In-Universe articles be rewritten in the past tense format. All major encyclopedias do it. It would be good for the wiki because it would put all content in the same perspective.It's not about how many edits you make, its about how significant your edits are 00:43, October 19, 2012 (UTC)
Neutral:I agree with this statement. This wiki needs a uniform style of writing, and since past tense is the most common, it should be past tense. LevenThumps (talk) 00:46, October 19, 2012 (UTC)
- I've looked on other t.v. show wikis with an episode format, and all their episodes in present tense format. After trying to write a showdown for one, I found present tense easier. I still think that characters pages and Wu pages should be past tense, but episode pages seem to flow better in present tense. Also, all of our episode summaries are in present tense, so we would have to rewrite them all. LevenThumps (talk) 02:46, October 21, 2012 (UTC)
Support I think that it is very important for this Wiki to have a specific uniform style of writing articles. This is a good start. However, I also support the idea that Episode articles should be in present-tense, as it is better to follow that way. TrueThespian (talk) 21:43, October 23, 2012 (UTC)
Ricky, why are you already deciding to change the format of episodes when it is still in discussion in the forums, and the two people who commented both agree that episodes should be in present tense. LevenThumps (talk) 13:16, November 6, 2012 (UTC)
