But then, I may have misunderstood Skyring's point: that journals must standardize on one style.
No, I was saying that many journals would insist on CE as a standard. Not all. Not even most.
If this is the case, then either it does not apply to Wikipedia -- where in many cases articles are written in different styles -- or is irrelevant because Wikipedia currently insists on the same style being used through the article.
What I was thinking about was publications such as Encyclopaedia Britannica, where standards would presumably be enforced throughout the whole work. All off the top of my pointy bald head, BTW.
