Wiki Standards

In order to maintain consistency throughout the wiki documentation, the following standards are encouraged.

Text Formatting

• Bulleted lists items end with a period.

Categories

• Each category has an auto-generated description page with a link to all pages with that category. The first line of each category page should be a description.
• All pages within a project are tagged with project name, then page type. For example, a how-to guide within the Photo Gallery project would be tagged as:

[[Category: Photo Gallery]][[Category:How-to Guide]]

• When applying categories to a page, categorize pages in order of broad to specific. For example, a how-to guide within the Photo Gallery project would be tagged as

[[Category: Photo Gallery]][[Category:How-to Guide]]

NOT

[[Category:How-to Guide]][[Category: Photo Gallery]]

• All category names are written in sentence case (first letter capitalized). Spaces are allowed - hyphens and dashes shouldn't be used in place of spaces.
• The home page of a project receives an additional category tag:

[[Category: Project]]

Additional pages within the project do not receive the Project category.
