In order to make this wiki organized, concise and generally easy to understand, there are several guidelines one should follow when making edits:
General Rules for Editing
- Write for both total strangers to philosophy and experienced philosophers alike.
- Always, Always, Always define your terms and provide clear concrete examples or demonstrations of the point you're making. (Again, articles should be readable by anyone)
- Provide links to other pages to help the traffic flow to an article. A visitor should never have to hit the "Back" button to move on
- When using quotes, use the quote template to standardize the format by inserting your quote into markup- {{Q|[Quote text here]|[Author, Source]}}
When creating a new article
- Be sure to add a Stub tag to the top (just type {{stub}} at the top of the article)
- Add it to one of our Categories by simply creating a link like this: [[Category:(''name of category here'')]]
