This is the Styletips project, which gives useful advice to editors on writing style and formatting in bite-size chunks from the Manual of Style and related pages. For the complete schedule of Styletips, see below.

Please place suggestions on the Talk page. The objective is to keep the focus of each tip narrow and to express it simply and briefly.

Subset terms


A subset term identifies a set of members of a larger class. Common subset terms are including, such as, and among.

  • Don't use redundant subset terms (so avoid constructions like these: Among the most well-known members of the fraternity are included two members of the Onassis family; The elements in stars include hydrogen, helium and iron, etc.).
  • Don't use including to introduce a complete list, where comprising, consisting of, or composed of would be more accurate.
