See also: Common Misspellings
Editors, don't add to this one. (But you can consult it if you're reading a manuscript).
General
- city-sphere: has a hyphen
- D-per: first letter capitalized always (but not the P)
- eyefilm: one word (or film, alone)
- God in the stream: god is capitalized, stream isn't

Faulfenza
- hyphenated words intended to invoke the vocabulary directly are not capitalized: ex. 'place-of-dancing', 'shelter-wraps', 'joint-olding', etc.
- 'Wisdom Scrolls' - capitalized, as 'the Bible' is. Anything that implies the Wisdom Scrolls takes the caps, so 'I'll be recorded in a Scroll' not 'in a scroll.' Similarly, 'Lesser Wisdom Scrolls' and 'Greater Wisdom Scrolls' because those are codified bodies of work.
- Midcaps for compound words: FireBorn, FireMother, WisdomDancer, etc.
- words in Faulfenzair are italicized (Qiifaula, piipiizauq).
