[edit] Neutral tone
Write in a gentle objective tone that does not cross swords with others' opinions. Diverse views are welcome but arguments, political, professional or private, are not. They are not what Wikigogy is for.
- If you feel a page is non-neutral please
- correct it by editing the page, or
- put the neutral tone violation tag {{ntvio}} on the page and someone else will look into fixing it.
Further thoughts and comments about this policy are welcome on the Talk page.
[edit] Heading
Headings break pages up into logical sections. Start with 2 equal signs (==) so that the page title remains the only H1 heading.
- H2 headings first level divisions within a page, create with 2 equal signs (==) on both ends of a line. Please use this only when it is really waranted, for example to divide long pages. For smaller pages, consider starting with H3 headings instead.
- H3 headings subheadings within H2 headings, create with 3 equal signs (===) at both ends of a line. On simpler pages, it's okay to skip H2 headings and start with H3 headings instead -- do what looks right to you.
- H4 headings subheadings within H3 headings, create with 4 equal signs (====) at both ends of a line.
- H5 headings subheadings within H4 headings, create with 5 equal signs (=====) at both ends of a line.
AVOID USING FULL CAPS in headings -- let Wikigogy's default heading styles shine through for a consistent look and feel across the site.
[edit] Contents
If a page has more than three headings a table of contents will automatically appear at top. If you don't want it, put __NOTOC__ at page bottom.
[edit] List
- Bullet lists use squares on Wikigogy. When numbered lists are needed, numbers can be created by using # instead of *. Please use bullet lists normally because numbered lists are more trouble to maintain.
- No blank lines between list items is best. The software can handle blank lines in bullet lists okay but numbered lists start over with 1 at blank lines. For a paragraph break in a list item you can use <br /> instead of a blank line.
- Bold focus the main word in each list item if you like.
[edit] Sign your comments on Talk pages
with --~~~~ (it renders your name and the date)
[edit] Short and simple work
Keep it short and simple -- easy to read, easy to edit.
It works better.
Help us edit pages down to their bare message whenever you can. This is an essential part of collaborative work.
