The '''Manual of Style''' (abbreviated as '''MoS''' or '''MOS''') is the [[style manual]] for all Design Computation articles. This primary page of the guideline covers certain topics (e.g. punctuation) in detail and [[WP:Summary style|summarizes]] the key points of other topics. The detail pages, which are cross-referenced here and linked by this page's menu or listed at [[Manual of Style/Contents]], provide specific guidance on those topics. If any contradiction arises, {{em|this page has precedence}} over all detail pages of the guideline, and the [[Simplified Manual of Style|Simplified Manual of Style]].{{Efn|This is a matter of policy at {{section link|WP:Consensus|Level of consensus}}: "Consensus among a limited group of editors, at one place and time, cannot override community consensus on a wider scale. For instance, unless they can convince the broader community that such action is right, participants in a wikiproject cannot decide that a Wikipedia policy or guideline does not apply to articles within its scope." And: "Wikipedia has a higher standard of participation and consensus for changes to policies and guidelines than to other types of pages."}}
