This template should only be used on pages that have received a general consensus as belonging to the Manual of Style.
If you're writing a new guideline, or substantially revising one, please remember to give the community significant time to consider your proposal. See BTW:PROPOSAL for the current best practice on advertising proposals.
For a short introduction on how to go from a proposal to a BattleTechWiki style guideline, see Category:Proposals and How to contribute to BattleTechWiki guidance.

Parameters[edit]
The template supports up to five numbered or unnamed parameters that specify shortcut links for the style guideline page ([[...]]
markup does not need to be added, it can just be something like MOS:FOO).
The parameter |section=y
can be used to change "This guideline" to read "This guideline section". This is only used when an MoS guideline is a section in a larger combined guideline, it is not to be used for each section in an all-MOS page.
Examples[edit]
Code with one or more parameters for shortcut links:
{{MoS guideline|BTW:MOS|BTW:STYLE}}
