Editing Guidelines: A guide to making decent, working wiki articles.
- That is for sure lol.Guidelines
- Make decent articles; and make them worthwhile. Meaning that if you don't see any use for it; don't put it here.
- Make sure that ALL the information in your articles are correct. I don't care if you have to run through the steps yourself; if the information isn't correct then chances are that it will be edited to be corrected or even worse, deleted.
- Use the correct code for the correct type of line.
<syntaxhighlight lang="'"`UNIQ--pre-00000000-QINU`"'" enclose="none">Python</syntaxhighlight>
{{Code|Insert Name of Code here|<pre class="clear">
(Insert code here) </pre>}} To get the above shown box.
File: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
# ********************************************************************** # Screen sections. # ********************************************************************** Section "Screen" # The Identifier, Device and Monitor lines must be present Identifier "Screen 1" Device "VESA" Monitor "Generic Monitor" Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "true"
{{File| (Name of File)| <pre class="clear"> (File Contents) </pre>}} tag for this file box. Use this box for the contents of files.
# emerge --sync
Use {{Console| <pre class="clear"> (console commands & info) </pre>}} for console input/output
And remember to close each tag with a </pre> tag. Because if you don't then all of your text will end up in one big box.
- Use the {{Commandgui|<highlighted word>}} for highlighting keywords such as things that need to be looked for in a dialog box.
- If you have warnings such as "May break your system" or "Use with caution" then use the {{Warning| <Insert Warning Here>}}
- If you have a note such as "Emerge --sync your portage before doing this step" or "May give more than what you need in packages" then use the {{Note| Insert Note Here}} template.
- Please don't spam. If you spam we will block you and your IP. No exceptions.
- Keep your articles simple. Don't include useless crap. Just what needs to be there. However if you need to post something like the output of lspci or something long use a scrollbar box by using one of the three templates shown above.
- If you could, go through and cleanup really useless articles., and put outdated articles
in the Wiki-archive on the main page. Thanks for contributing to the Sabayon Project!
