Use of them as sources in our articles must follow [[WP:PSTS]] policy.}} This ~~essay~~advice page examines the use of externally published [[Style manual\|style guide]]s for English writing, both as informative of our own internal [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style]] (MoS), and as [[Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources\|reliable sources]] cited in our articles on English usage. Remember that Wikipedia has and uses its own [[House style (disambiguation)\|house style]]; do not impose styles that don't comply with it just because a divergent style can be found in an external stylebook.
