In standard American English usage, the titles of games such as ''Elite: Dangerous'' are always printed in ''italics''. It's odd that the game's title, here on this wiki, is not universally italicized. Fixing this should be a top priority.

: First, as per site policy, british spelling practices are prefered.  Second, I'm not sure that is standard practice, especially for wikis.  Third, compared to adding missing info, updating out of date info, or adding new info this is not a top priority.  Not even in the top 5.  ----Admin DNYI [[User:DNYI|DNYI]] ([[User talk:DNYI|talk]]) 04:05, February 26, 2017 (UTC)DNYI

Definitely not needed for us, might want it for the books though, but it's rarely mentioned outside their own article [[User:SpyTec|SpyTec]] ([[User talk:SpyTec|talk]]) 09:16, February 26, 2017 (UTC)
