Text of the page (random words):
a reader hitherto uninformed on the subject you should plan your page structure and links so that everything appears reasonable and makes sense a link should not take readers to somewhere other than where they thought it would go avoid easter egg links which require the reader to open them before understanding what s going on instead use a short phrase or a few words to describe what the link will refer to once it s opened similarly make sure that concepts being used as the basis for further discussion have already been defined or linked to a proper article explain causes before consequences and make sure your logical sequence is clear and sound especially to the layperson ensure that redirects and hatnotes that are likely to be useful are in place if a user wants to know about the branch of a well known international hotel chain in the french capital they may type paris hilton into the search box this will of course take them to the page associated with a well known socialite called paris hilton luckily though a hatnote at the top of that article exists in order to point our user to an article which they will find more useful we cannot control all astonishment the point of an encyclopedia is to learn things after all but limiting the surprises our readers find within our articles text will encourage rather than frustrate our readers use of refers to see also wikipedia wikipedia is not a dictionary fixing the introductory sentence removing refers to and wikipedia manual of style lead section first sentence shortcuts wp refers wp umd phrases such as refers to is the name of describes the or is a term for are sometimes used inappropriately in the first sentence of wikipedia articles for example the article computer architecture once began with the sentence computer architecture refers to the theory behind the design of a computer that is not true computer architecture is the theory the words computer architecture refer to the theory but the article is not about the words it is about the theory thus it is better to say computer architecture is the theory behind the design of a computer this is known as the use mention distinction for the vast majority of articles the introduction is using a term computer architecture is a theory rather than mentioning it to speak easily of the scope of a hypernym without confusing the term for the thing one can simply say that hypernym is any of various hyponym or any of a class of hyponym with trait x such as a pine is any conifer in the genus pinus of the family pinaceae not pine refers to any tree in the genus pinus of the family pinaceae disambiguation pages mention the term so in such cases it is correct to write great schism may refer to either of two schisms in the history of christianity on such pages by long standing tradition the use mention italics are forgone however a content article should read there have been two great schisms in the history of christianity when mentioning a term rather than using it write the word in italics as shown above see wp wordsaswords check your facts see also wikipedia verifiability shortcuts wp check your facts wp factcheck write material that is true check your facts do not write material that is false this might require that you verify your alleged facts this is a crucial part of citing good sources even if you think you know something you have to provide references anyway to prove to the reader that the fact is true material that seems to naturally stem from sourced claims might not have been actually claimed in searching for good references to cite you might even learn something new be careful about deleting material that may be factual if you are inclined to delete something from an entry first consider checking whether it is true if material is apparently factual in other words substantiated and cited be extra careful about deleting an encyclopedia is a collection of facts if another editor provided a fact there was probably a reason for it that should not be overlooked therefore consider each fact provided as potentially precious is the context or overall presentation the issue if the fact does not belong in one particular article maybe it belongs in another examine entries you have worked on subsequent to revision by others have facts been omitted or deleted it may be the case that you failed to provide sufficient substantiation for the facts or that the facts you incorporated may need a clearer relationship to the entry protect your facts but also be sure that they are presented meaningfully check your fiction shortcut wp cyf main page wikipedia manual of style writing about fiction the advice about factual articles also applies to articles on fiction subjects further considerations apply when writing about fictional topics because they are inherently not real it is important to keep these articles verifiable and encyclopedic if you add fictional information clearly distinguish fact and fiction as with normal articles establish context so that a reader unfamiliar with the subject can get an idea about the article s meaning without having to check several links instead of writing trillian is arthur dent s girlfriend she was taken away from earth by zaphod when he met her at a party she meets dent while travelling with zaphod write trillian is a fictional character from douglas adams s radio book and film series the hitchhiker s guide to the galaxy in the first book trillian is introduced to the main character arthur dent on a spaceship in her backstory she was taken away from earth when the space alien zaphod beeblebrox met her at a party use of fictional tenses shortcut wp fictense works of fiction are generally considered to come alive for their audience they therefore exist in a kind of perpetual present regardless of when the fictional action is supposed to take place relative to the reader s now thus generally you should write about fiction using the historical present tense not the past tense see wp manual of style verb tense and wp manual of style writing about fiction contextual presentation examples homer presents achilles rages andromache laments priam pleads holden caulfield has a certain disdain for what he sees as phony friends is an american sitcom that was aired on nbc conversely discussion of history is usually written in the past tense and thus fictional history may be presented in that way as well chroniclers claimed that thalestris queen of the amazons seduced alexander the great articles about fictional topics should not read like book reports instead they should explain the topic s significance to the work after reading the article the reader should be able to understand why a character place or event was included in the fictional work editors are generally discouraged from adding fictional information from sources that cannot be verified or are limited to a very small number of readers such as fan fiction and online role playing games in the latter case if you absolutely have to write about the subject please be especially careful to cite your sources if the subject say a character in a television show is too limited to be given a full article then integrate information about that character into a larger article it is better to write a larger article about the television show or a fictional universe itself than to create all sorts of stubs about its characters that nobody can find stay on topic wp topic redirects here for information about the topic namespace see wikipedia flow wp offtopic redirects here for the guideline on collapsing off topic talk page discussions see wikipedia talkofftopic shortcuts wp topic wp offtopic the most readable articles contain no irrelevant nor only loosely relevant information while writing an article you might find yourself digressing into a side subject if you are wandering off topic consider placing the additional information into a different article where it will fit more closely with that topic if you provide a link to the other article readers who are interested in the side topic have the option of digging into it but readers who are not interested will not be distracted by it pay attention to spelling main page wikipedia spellchecking pay attention to spelling particularly of new page names articles with good spelling and proper grammar can help encourage further contributions of well formed content proper spelling of an article name will also make it easier for other authors to link their articles to your article sloppiness begets sloppiness so always do your best browsers have the native ability to highlight misspelled words in text boxes use free online dictionaries like ask oxford dictionary com onelook com google define and a spell checker such as spellcheck net gingersoftware or your browser s built in spell checker see wikipedia typo team for tips on how to use these resources articles may also be spell checked in a word processor before being saved a free word processor may be obtained from openoffice org or libreoffice org a draft message on certain free email websites such as gmail can also provide spell check this might be convenient especially regarding email websites with which you are already familiar and use often avoid peacock and weasel terms avoid peacock terms that show off the subject of the article without containing any real information similarly avoid weasel words that offer an opinion without really backing it up and which are really used to express a non neutral point of view examples of peacock terms an important one of the most prestigious one of the best the most influential a significant the great examples of weasel words some people say is widely regarded as is widely considered has been called it is believed that it has been suggested noticed decided some people believe it has been said that some would say legend has it that critics say that many some have claimed believe in your subject let the facts speak for themselves if your ice hockey player canton or species of beetle is worth the reader s time it will come out through the facts however in some cases for example history of graphic design using superlative adjectives in the one of the most important figures in the history of format in the description may help readers with no previous knowledge about the subject to learn about the importance or generally perceived status of the subject discussed note that to use this type of superlative adjective format the most reputable experts in the relevant field must support the claim avoid blanket terms unless you have verified them for example this article states that of the 18 montgomery counties in the united states most are named after richard montgomery this is a blanket statement it may very well be true but is it reliable in this instance the editor had done the research to verify this without the research the statement should not be made it is always a good idea to describe the research done and sign it on the article s talk page if you wish to or must refer to an opinion first make sure someone who holds some standing in that subject gives it a view on former american president gerald ford from henry kissinger is more interesting for the reader than one from your teacher from school then say who holds the opinion being given preferably with a source or a quote for it compare the following some critics of george w bush have said he has low intelligence author michael moore in his book stupid white men and other sorry excuses for the state of the nation wrote an open letter to george bush in it he asked george are you able to read and write on an adult level examples sometimes the way around using these terms is to replace the statements with the facts that back them up instead of the yankees are one of the greatest baseball teams in history write the new york yankees have won 27 world series championships almost three times as many as any other team by sticking to concrete and factual information we can avoid the need to give any opinion at all doing so also makes for writing that is much more interesting for example william peckenridge eighth duke of omnium 1642 may 8 1691 is widely considered to be one of the most important men to carry that title william peckenridge eighth duke of omnium 1642 may 8 1691 was personal counselor to king james i general in the wars of the roses a chemist bandleader and the director of the secret society known as the league of extraordinary gentlemen he expanded the title of omnium to include protectorship of guiana and right of revocation for civil service appointments in india show don t tell the first example simply tells the reader that william peckenridge was important the second example shows the reader why he was important exceptions when repeating established views it may be easier to simply state before nicolaus copernicus most people thought the sun revolved round the earth rather than sacrifice clarity with details and sources particularly if the statement forms only a small part of your article however in general everything should be sourced whether within the text with a footnote or with a general reference make omissions explicit for other editors make omissions explicit when creating or editing an article when writing an article always aim for completeness if for some reason you cannot cover a point that should be explained make that omission explicit you can do this either by leaving a note on the discussion page or by leaving html comments within the text and adding a notice to the bottom about the omissions this has two purposes it entices others to contribute and it alerts non experts that the article they are reading does not yet give the full story that s why wikipedia is a collaborative encyclopedia we work together to achieve what we could not achieve individually every aspect that you cover means less work for someone else plus you may cover something that someone else may not think of but which is nevertheless important to the subject add to do to the top of the talk page of articles for which you can establish some goals priorities or things to do other issues honorifics do not use honorifics or titles such as mr ms rev doctor professor etc see wikipedia naming conventions royalty and nobility and wikipedia manual of style biography inappropriate subjects if you are trying to dress up something that doesn t belong in wikipedia your band your web site your company s product think twice about it wikipedia is not an advertising medium or home page service wikipedians are pretty clever and if an article is really just personal gratification or blatant advertising it s not going to last long no matter how important you say the subject is integrate changes when you make a change to some text rather than appending the
