Difference between revisions of "Wiki standards"

Revision as of 16:19, 7 November 2011

Here are the basic standards for posting and editing in the wiki. Discussion and questions are in the discussion page.

Quote size

All quotes should be as brief as possible: two paragraphs maximum.

Original writing

Please keep original writing to a bare minimum, and keep the voice as neutral and close to the original text as possible. Every assertion must be verifiable in the teachings of the New Message from God.

Outside material

Outside material should kept to a bare minimum, carefully sourced, directly (and helpfully) supporting a statement from the New Message, and not in violation of copyrights.

New pages

Every page should be a topic, a subject, referred to in the New Message. The clearer and more direct, the better. There are a few exceptions: common questions, the feeds page, and this one, for example.

Optimum page layout

Citation

Personal Testimony

Personal testimony should not live on the New Message Wiki. If it is relevant, it can be linked to or referred to on another web site.
