GoodStyle
- Write factual information.
- Give concrete advice.
- To make editing and elaboration easier, avoid use of "I" where possible (except in your WikiHomePage).
- Write and sign first person accounts when reporting experience not easily reduced to facts or advice.
- Place words where they are easy to read, which isn't always at the bottom.
- Edit pages to emphasize the flow of ideas, not the chronology of contribution.
- Be concise and stay OnTopic for the page.
- Use language you'd be comfortable reading out loud - use vs utilize - and keep it simple. Simple language often communicates better.
- The server has very simple TextFormattingRules. Start each line without spaces, and separate paragraphs with a blank line. You can run capitalized words together to make HyperLinks.
- Use horizontal separators to make things easier to read. When there are lots of different comments with no separation, they can get confusing.
- Edit only when you think a page is lacking - don't just sign your name at the bottom of every page.
- Don't delete unless doing so adds value.
- Don't say things that are designed to make others mad. Practice civility and understatement.
