This category is used for administration of the Wikipedia project, and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages that are not articles, or groups articles by status rather than content. Do not include this category in content categories; see WP:PROJCATS.

Category:Wikipedia style guidelines is a top style guide category for pages related to standards for design and writing of Wikipedia documents. A page may be considered a style guide if it is intended to help keep the formatting, grammar and style of Wikipedia's articles consistent.

Official guidelines that may be categorized outside of the Manual of Style may be categorized here automatically by using {{Subcat guideline|style guideline}} at the top of the page.

Please post a message at WT:Manual of Style if you add or are thinking of adding a page to this category. We encourage people to write style guidelines on new topics, but group efforts work best. Proposed style guidelines are in Category:Wikipedia style guideline proposals.

For informal style guides maintained in user space, see Category:User style guides.
