	As a longtime visitor, I’ve always been a bit confused as to why episode titles are italicized here instead of put in quotes, as in the normal convention. I get that the pairs of apostrophes in wikicode mimic quotation marks, but once published have two very different results. I tried to find an answer within the MOS text, but couldn’t find any. I’m not demanding it change, as it’s become ingrained in Bulbapedia aesthetic, but some clarity would be nice (and I get why epcodes don’t get any formatting whatsoever, it makes complete sense)--[[User:KnightGalarie\|KnightGalarie]] ([[User talk:KnightGalarie\|talk]]) 06:57, 21 April 2020 (UTC)		As a longtime visitor, I’ve always been a bit confused as to why episode titles are italicized here instead of put in quotes, as in the normal convention. I get that the pairs of apostrophes in wikicode mimic quotation marks, but once published have two very different results. Heck, books like the Pokémon Adventures manga have no formatting, when books in normal convention are italicized. I tried to find an answer within the MOS text, but couldn’t find any.
