| Guidelines for creating a great article here:
| | #REDIRECT [[ICANNWiki:Content Guide]] |
| | |
| == Getting Started ==
| |
| * Create a user account
| |
| * Please feel free to experiment, it's a wiki and pretty much everything can always be corrected. The [[Sandbox]] is a great place to play around.
| |
| | |
| == Creating Content in General ==
| |
| * Write from a Neutral Point of View ([[NPOV]])
| |
| * Do not include promotional material from the website
| |
| * Do not copy text or images from other websites, writing must be original. It is fine to read, understand and then create your own content.
| |
| * It is ok to use images that are in the public domain or under a [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ creative commons license]. It is also ok to use company logos.
| |
| * It is also ok to use content from ICANNWiki.org (the older version of this site), but much of it has been written from a promotional point of view and will need to be converted to a neutral point of view.
| |
| * using an internal link is always good, so instead of "ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers)", just use "<nowiki>[[ICANN]]</nowiki>" and then we'll define [[ICANN]] on that page.
| |
| | |
| == Creating Company Articles ==
| |
| * When uploading a company logo, try to give it a name which includes the name of the company and the word logo, like "ABC-Logo.jpg". If you use just "logo.png" over time some logos will overwrite others.
| |
| * Use the [[:Template:CompanyInfo|Company Infobox Template]]
| |
| * Put all key people into the infobox
| |
| *: Shorten people's titles to make them fit better, so "Executive Vice President" becomes [[EVP]]
| |
| * Add <nowiki>[[Category:Company]]</nowiki> to the bottom of the page to categorize the article as a company
| |
| * If the company is a Registrar or Registry, then add <nowiki>[[Category:Registrars]]</nowiki> or <nowiki>[[Category:Registries]]</nowiki>
