Contributing Guidelines
This page details guidelines and best practices for contributing to this wiki.
The information below should not be interpreted as a set of rules, as the style of this wiki should be allowed to evolve and adapt to the users and contributors. It is only intended to give contributors the right understanding on how to contribute information in the most efficient and reader-friendly format, reducing the workload on other contributors performing revisions.
General Guidelines
- Always try to write gramatically correct sentences without typos
- Consecutive sentences that would loose some of their meaning without eachother should not be separated by line breaks
- Information should be objectively correct and verifiable when possible
- Unverifiable or consensus-based information should be added only when necessary and when used, it should be relativized accordingly, e.g. "It is believed that..." or "The consensus among experts is..."
Page Structure
Any page should follow a basic structure, so readers can quickly find the information they are looking for.
Any page will automatically generate a table of contents once it contains headings.
Introduction
The page should start with a very concise definition on the subject of the page, similar to a dictionary. If possible, a picture of the subject should be placed here as well.
Sections
The article should be split into sections to make it easy to find specific information on the subject without reading the entire page.
If a section contains unverified claims, please add the Template:Unverified directly below the heading.
References
The final section should be called "References" and only contain the references list.
