Punctuational errors in the Brand and Asset Guidelines

Last checked: April 19, 2023

In the Brand and Asset Guidelines (https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/terms#brand), there are a few punctuational and grammatical errors:

  • Second paragraph (We want you to keep...)

    • Missing Oxford comma between "Brands" and "Assets", which is inconsistent with other lists.

  • First paragraph under Essential Requirements (The first thing to say...)

    • 'and /or' contains a space before the forward slash. This is incorrect and can lead to misconceptions, and is inconsistent with all other mentions of the phrase.

  • Examples under Commercial Things (To help you we've suggested...)

    • Kotoba Miners: A Minecraft server for learning " is missing double quotes at the beginning and has an extra space before the double quotes at the end.

    • (we're cool with that). has a period at the end of the line, which is incorrect and inconsistent with the following example.

This relates to WEB-1383.

No I think it goes like this (eg. My favourite colors are Blue, Green and Red.)

Hi there!

Yes, that is correct most of the time. The Oxford comma is optional. But the general rule is that if it is used at all, it should be used consistently. Every other list like this in the document use this comma, so it should be used in this one too.

Okay, I might have been looking at the wrong sentence

This appears to now be fixed
