The closets thing we have for a Style Guide are the following two links. They are mainly aimed at the mwiki, much of the information in them is applicable our use as well. https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Dashboard/Help_Style_Guide#Formats https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Dashboard/Wiki_Editing_Policy As I remember correctly ODFAuthors used the Chicago Manual of Style, or we could choose our own.
