Project Pages Style Guide

From Common Energy UVic

The Project Pages Style Guide is a style guide for the Common Energy wiki. Please adhere to this guide whenever editing or creating page content.When starting a page, simply copy the preformatted skeleton, as it appears on this page, into the new page and start filling it in.

[edit] Discussion

The Projects, many of which are organized by Working Groups, are the primary action areas of Common Energy. Project pages are important for presenting a professional face for Common Energy and for allowing the project groups to collaborate.

Please keep the page order consistent, so that users can easily browse different projects pages; however, if a heading does not apply to your project (Documents, for example), do not include it.

[[PROJECT NAME Rough Planning]] is meant to be a link to a collaboration section of the wiki. This is where to store rough work, have online meetings, etc. Discussion pages should be reserved for discussion of page content. If you want to chat about something related to the project, simply create a new page.
