Editorial Guidelines
All content on Webmonkey must conform to these Editorial Guidelines.
- All content on Webmonkey is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 United States License unless otherwise explicitly stated by the author or by the code.
- Articles created and maintained on the wiki may be edited to reflect a neutral point of view. Wiki pages can be edited by anyone with a Webmonkey login ID. With a few exceptions, this is true for every page on this site. If you don't want others to edit and improve your work, don't put it here.
- We ask that you adhere to wiki principles of good faith, civility and consensus decision-making.
- When contributing, respect for others should be your guiding light. This is the spirit of Webmonkey, and it is what will guide us when disputes arise.
- Hacks, mods and methods of specific products are welcome. Articles describing a method of completing a task using one method or preferred software application may be edited to include alternate methods and alternative software choices.
- Sock puppets (multiple accounts), self-promotion and malicious advice are not welcome. Neither are MLM and other "internet marketing" or "sales advice" articles. They will be treated as spam.
- The information you add should be accurate. Spoofs or vandalism will be removed. Provide documentation with links when possible.
- All page titles should begin with an action verb (Build, Hack, Modify, Get Started, Learn) whenever possible. Otherwise, do your best to find a suitable title. Page titles should never begin with "How To."
- Use images, screenshots and videos wherever possible to illustrate technique.
- Feel free to comment on any article. The Discussion tab acts as a forum for the development of new ideas and the place where "the facts" can be disputed. But please, keep it clean and constructive.
- It is the responsibility of authors, contributors and other site stake-holders to subscribe to the Recent Changes feeds of the pages they contribute to. Be on the lookout for spam, malicious changes and other unwelcome edits.
- Over time, we expect Webmonkey to develop into a community of users, including Wired staff members and contributors, who will continuously strive toward creating a society of hackers, DIYers and people who are never satisfied with "good enough."
