Style Guide
From Polyphasic Sleep Wiki
In order to preserve consistency throughout this wiki, please follow these style guidelines when creating new articles:
- Use level two subheadings for subsections in an article. Do not use bold text for these subheadings.
- For schedules, use schedule templates.
- Do not take screenshots of napcharts. Use the image export feature.
- Use bullets for lists (you can type it with an asterisk).
More will be added as time goes on.
