* Avoid the '''"click here"''' phrase!! Don't say: "More info about etiquette can be found  '''here'''" but use "More info about etiquette can be found at  DescriptiveName". This makes it easier for users who require assistive technologies to use the web page.
 
* Use Wikilinks ([[Main Page|<nowiki>[[Main Page]]</nowiki>]]), Interwiki-Links ([[WikiPedia:Wikipedia|<nowiki>[[Wikipedia:Wikipedia]]</nowiki>]]), IDLTagExtension-Links(<nowiki><idl></nowiki><idl>com.sun.star.beans.XPropertySet</idl><nowiki></idl></nowiki>) and [[:Category:Templates_for_links]] whereever possible. Avoid plain old Links ([http://example.com <nowiki>[http://example.com]</nowiki>]), whereever possible.
 
* Avoid copying and pasting other people's content unless you have permission or the content is explicitly in the public domain. If you want to quote an excerpt from other content, please attribute the original source.
 
* Correcting typos is encouraged.
 
* Be polite and constructive.

History

  • version 0.1 / 2008 - Initial Draft

Objective

The objective of this SOP is to improve the wiki and ease maintenance and navigation through the wiki, by implementing a standardised way of creating new wiki-pages.

Procedure

Page Name

  • group new wiki page under relevant Top-Level Wiki Page/Subpage
Every new Wiki-Page shall be grouped under a relevant project as per Top Level Wiki Pages-SOP.
  • assign a relevant name to the new wiki page
  • create new Wiki-Page under [[_Top_Level_Wiki_Page_/_Subpages_/_Relevant_New_Page_Name_]]
  • A good name is short and descriptive. If the name is logical and easy, many more people will link to it.
  • A good name is more likely to look like a chapter title of a book than a complete sentence.
  • This Wiki allows you to create pages with a single word as a name, but try to use at least two words - we don't want to exhaust the name space :-).
  • Double-check WikiNames for typos - otherwise someone will create a misnamed page! Misnamed pages are bad, since linking to them requires more effort than to a logical, correct WikiName.

Assigning Categories

Every new Wiki-Page shall be assigned one or more relevant categories as per Signing Wiki Pages-SOP.

Link

Add a link from a Top-Page to the new wiki-page.

General Wiki Content Rules

Talk Pages

  • Unless you have a strong reason for contributing anonymously, sign your comments. You also might want to create your own Wiki page and link to that from your signature.

Users

  • page creator / page owner
