Writing tips

[edit]

One of the most frequent problems on Wikipedia is listing dates of occurrences in articles. As an example, you will see "on MMMM DD YYYY, X occurred." This makes for choppy and bad writing. In many cases, the dates or full dates are unnecessary. However, they should be integrated into the flow of the text. The above example would be better written as "X occurred on MMMM DD YYYY". The specific date is only important when its directly relevant, otherwise only the month need be mentioned, and only then if it seems worse with just the year. Mentioning the date is usually redundant when a link to a specific dated event is in the sentence.
