WikiQueer:Manual of Style/Register

This page is a work in progress, a working draft of a supplement to the WikiQueer:Manual of Style. Its purpose is to record decisions made in discussions at WikiQueer talk:Manual of Style.

This document is meant as a reference of consensus decisions on the WikiQueer Manual of Style and, when available, the reasoning behind each consensus. It is not itself a collection of guidelines, rules, or laws. Just the fact that a consensus has been recorded on this page does not mean that that consensus is a permanent and unchangeable part of WikiQueer. This register is meant only to give editors better understanding of the current state of things, which is useful both to those considering proposing changes and to those seeking to better implement the MoS as it exists.

Quotations

 * See WikiQueer talk:Manual of Style/quotation and punctuation

Single or double
The WikiQueer MoS prefers double quotation marks to single ones because they are more discernible visually, and there is no risk of mistaking a quotation mark for an apostrophe.
