Following [[User:Huntbelmont|Huntbelmont]]'s little breakdown over changes made to [[Renovation]], it struck me that there is no explicit mention of the requirement for articles to be written from an in-universe perspective (unless dealing with an out-of-universe subject) within the Manual of Style. If somebody has the time, could this be added in, please? That way I can actually cite the MoS in future. --'''''[[User:Jasca Ducato|Jasca Ducato]]''''' <small>([[User talk:Jasca Ducato|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jasca Ducato|contributions]])</small> 10:46, October 12, 2015 (UTC)

IU v OOU

Following Huntbelmont's little breakdown over changes made to Renovation, it struck me that there is no explicit mention of the requirement for articles to be written from an in-universe perspective (unless dealing with an out-of-universe subject) within the Manual of Style. If somebody has the time, could this be added in, please? That way I can actually cite the MoS in future. --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 10:46, October 12, 2015 (UTC)

Possessive needs updating

The policy being enforced currently in most cases is not reflected in what's written here in th MoS. This either needs to be updated or we need to change how we are enforcing possessive nouns endin in "S". Lacrossedeamon (talk) 02:43, November 13, 2018 (UTC)

First, if current practice is deviating from the Manual of Style, it would be that those practices are in error unless decided otherwise by consensus, not that the MoS is outdated. Second of all, negligence in enforcement is not the same thing as enforcing it differently, and finally, how is the way we're enforcing it in violation of the MoS currently?
