Style issues for history

Main article: Wikipedia:Manual of Style (general style issues)

In historical articles, the past tense is strongly preferred. While history can be written in the present tense, the general audience of Wikipedia will usually expect the past tense on historical subjects and events that occurred in the past. The present tense in English is only correctly used to describe past events in a work of fiction. This is referred to as the "historical past tense".

Remain objective as possible. The point and ideal of Wikipedia is to create an encyclopaedic neutral body of knowledge. Avoid using the first-person point of view (emphasising the facts; not the editor). Explain the evidence (from the links and references) and explain the reasons of any conclusions.

Article names

See: Wikipedia:Naming conventions, Wikipedia:Naming conventions (use English)

Convention: Use the form most familiar to English speakers. Name pages in English and place the native transliteration on the first line of the article unless the native form is more commonly used in English than the anglicized form.

Biography

See: Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies)

Names and titles

For naming articles See: Wikipedia:Article titles, for use in article content See Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies)

Dates

See: Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)

The Gregorian calendar is the calendar currently used.
