Help:A Quick Guide to the Hi-5 World Wiki

So you would like to edit the wiki on the Hi-5 World Wiki? Below is a brief guide to assist you:

When it comes to dates, be a European

This: dd Month Year

Example: today is 12 April 2026.

Not this: Month dd, year

Example: today is April 12, 2026.

Likewise, please avoid numerical date formats (04/12/2026 or 12/04/2026), as these may cause confusion depending on whether the reader follows European or American conventions.

Although Americanized spellings remain standard, it is strongly recommended to adopt the European date format in order to ensure clarity and consistency.

Furthermore, the European format simplifies internal linking.

For example, when using European dating, linking to a month requires only:

dd [[Month Year]]

In contrast, the American format would require:

Month dd [[Month Year|Year]]

When it comes to spelling, be an Australian

Hi-5 originated and achieved the majority of its success in Australia. As a result, Australian English is the standard for the Hi-5 World Wiki. Therefore, it is written as "program" rather than "programme," and "catalogue" rather than "catalog," and so on.

However, please also remain mindful of our users from Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Some international users may not be fully familiar with Australian cultural references present in the original Hi-5. In such cases, it is helpful to include brief explanatory notes where appropriate.
