User talk:ExodusBF4

Hello. Let me first welcome you to the Battlefield Wiki, and let you know that we appreciate your attempt to improve our BF4 weapon article set. However, said articles must be produced to a uniform Manual of Style, as detailed here. I recommend you read through it to ensure your future edits are more in line with our vision for the wiki, but here are some specific pointers I have for you upon examining your work:


 * Do not bold words for emphasis. Bold text is only reserved for a page title appearing in the main body.


 * Write from an impersonal perspective. Use "the player" instead of "you".


 * Avoid subjectivity. Analysis of a weapon is based solely on its statistics and its comparison to other weapons of its class.


 * Exaggerated words such as "absurdly" and "ludicrously", are out of place and ambiguous as descriptors, while describing weapons as "unstoppable death machines" in the hands of an "expertly trained player" are effectively meaningless phrases. Obvious statements such as "On X weapon, 1x optic is best suited for close range engagements", and "this weapon is able to kill the enemy in seconds" are similarly redundant.


 * No IRL information. The focus of the wiki is how equipment looks and performs in game, regardless of discrepancies in reality. As a rule of thumb, if your sentence begins or ends with "in real life", it is generally not needed.

Please do not be put off by any recent revisions to your work. It happens with all new editors, but with time and practice you will invariably become familiarised with the wiki's editing style. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me or any other active members via our talk pages or on the Wiki's official Discord.
