The essence of a wiki is the collaboration among members of the reference community and the publication of contributions by everyone. In order for the site to develop harmoniously, a continuous curatorial activity is necessary on the part of administrators and curators, which can be greatly simplified if the authors of the contributions adhere to a few simple rules.
- Memorize the rules of Netiquette before you start contributing!
- Rule1: Remember the Human
- Rule 2: Be ethical
- Rule 3: Know where you are
- Rule 4: Respect other people's time and data limits
- Rule 5: Make yourself look good online
- Rule 6: Share expert knowledge
- Rule 7: Keep disagreement healthy
- Rule 8: Respect other people's privacy
- Rule 9: Don't abuse your power
- Rule 10: Be forgiving of other people's mistakes
- Always use one of the templates provided for authors. It is legitimate to customize and adapt them to the nature of your contribution, but starting from one of them ensures a certain consistency in content and style. If you cannot find a usable template, please contact an administrator or editor before publishing.
- Read and comment on the work of other authors. It is the best way to draw inspiration and engage the community.
- Always cite the sources you have used to write your article.
- Make sure not to use copyrighted materials. Special attention should be paid to images in this regard.
- Try to use simple and understandable language.
- Absolutely avoid publishing offensive, blatantly advertising, or completely unrelated content to the theme of the wiki, both in pages and comments. In all these cases, the pages will be immediately removed by the system administrators at their sole discretion. In particularly serious or repeated cases, administrators may decide to suspend the author's account.
- If you have not done it yet, memorize the rules of Netiquette before you start contributing! It is really that important!
