How is that consistent with the wiki's directive to eliminate trivia sections, as covered in the manual of style? And where else do we list misspellings in trivia sections?{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 20:26, 23 October 2018 (UTC) | How is that consistent with the wiki's directive to eliminate trivia sections, as covered in the manual of style?

::Sure. A search for "Trivia" brings up most or all articles on the wiki containing Trivia sections. Multiple articles on site, including [[Marluxia]], [[Braig]], and [[Disney Castle]], list information like these misspellings, which are comparatively insignificant but noteworthy development errors or changes, as trivia. As far as how it's not brief, the manual of style states: "The first sentence in the introduction should briefly define the subject of the article..." Spelling mistakes are not defining the subjects, and are therefore simply extending unnecessarily the opening sentence. | |||
::As for a directive to eliminate trivia sections, I believe that was something from a few years ago, no? In any case, the Manual of Style does not prohibit trivia sections, but rather discourages the trivia that is based in speculation. {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 20:39, 23 October 2018 (UTC) |
