Standardization will help when it comes to the Overhaul. This allows users to disseminate information better.
- DO limit pages to a single subject.
If you feel you are defining terms, please move them to a new, separate page and link the term to the new page. - DON'T duplicate similar concepts.
If a subject seems too close to another subject, determine if both pages are talking about the same thing. - DO put sub-concepts in underlying directories.
If you have Standardization in the Overhaul, link it to Overhaul/Standardization so that the structure of moving up the chain can be respected. - DON'T put references to single, unique events.
If you had to deal with an issue on the Waze Map Editor on Par Street, don't give an example and a link to Par Street. Instead, give a theoretical example about the issue, and how it should be handled. - DO put disclaimer for dangerous ideas
If you suggest ways to fix an issue, such as rooting a phone, be sure to put a warning before the suggestion about the complications for doing such things. - DO capitalize first letters of page names
When naming pages, the first letter in page names should be capitalized. After that, only lower case unless you are referencing a person's name. - DO suggest other pages when possible to look at, but at the bottom of the page
- DON'T just link a page, include the base page URL at least, or a short description of the linked page.
For example, if you link a Youtube Video for a Tutorial, you should put "Tutorial Video on Youtube.com" for the description of the link. - DON'T add tonal changes to the text.
If it sounds like you are pissed, annoyed, or happy, people are less willing to read it because of the emotion involved.
