Here is a simple set of rules that you should use:

  1. Before starting a new article: search the wiki to check if there is already an article
  2. If a content exists under an other name:
    • use redirection IFF you feel that your concept should have its own entry
    • else use complex links like [[link | your label]]
  3. New articles:
    • NEVER use capital letters except for the very first one (the only exception are proper names). Good: Educational theory - Bad: Educational Theory
    • Use singular (e.g. theory, not theories)
    • No articles ("the",...)
  4. Structure of articles:
    • Use titles
    • Insert at least one category at the end, e.g. [[Category:XYZ]]
    • You may suggest new categories if needed ! (Categories are auto-creating, we will decide together if we keep yours ...).
  5. One article = one topic, i.e. create new pages for topics that are relevant to other articles.
    • Note: There is a system to compose articles from several pages if needed.
