==Wonky/Inconsistent Capitalization in the Manuals==
The capitalization in the manuals is so wonky and inconsistent I really want to just throw it out and stick to proper language (only capitalizing proper nouns and words that are in actual titles (the beginning of a sentence doesn't count)). I would also include that names of pages should be in title case (not fully capitalized). [[File:Hero Stormblessed small.gif|→ima|link=user:imahero]] 08:09, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
