The Manual of Style (abbreviated as MoS or MOS) is a style guide for all Hardcore Wiki articles. It is aimed to help editors to write consistently, clearly, and precisely-written articles. The MoS also discusses layout, and formatting.
National Varities of English
As the original hardcore series is from the United States of America, this wiki generally uses American English, and as a result uses the Template:Wp which is fairly common in American English.

- If the Host of a Series changes their name for reasons unrelated to a Series' identity, all mentions of the Series should be updated to reflect said name change.
- If the Series coincidentally shares the same name as another entity, the phrase "(Series)" shall be added to the end and a disambiguation page made.
- If the Host is the sole Host of multiple Series, they will all instead redirect to "_____'s Hardcore Series", where the underscores are replaced by the Host's wiki page name.
