There are some things to '''keep in mind''' when editing Wikipedia.

==Editorial policies==
===Subject matter===
Wikipedia is an editable [[encyclopedia]] (along with some topics that would typically be found in an [[almanac]]). Hence, articles should consist of encyclopedic information about '''"[[Wikipedia:Notability|notable]]"''' subjects.  What exactly constitutes notability is the subject of constant debate on Wikipedia, but in no case should there be (per Wikipedia rules) an article for every person on the planet, or for every company that sells anything, or for each street in every town in the world. However, there are '''[[Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects| sister projects]]''' for certain types of non-encyclopedic content.

Encyclopedia articles are primarily about ''the subject'', not ''the words'' for the subject, so any article that simply defines and explains the usages of a word, or short phrase, as you would find in a typical [[dictionary]], should be contributed to the [[Wiktionary:Main page|Wiktionary]] sister project instead.

Original source text, such as from a public-domain book that you want to post to make it more accessible, should be contributed to one of Wikipedia's other sister projects, [[Wikisource]].

{{Wikipedia's sister projects}}
For a list of all related projects, see the [[Meta:Complete list of Wikimedia projects|Complete list of Wikimedia projects]].

Wikipedia is also not the place for "[[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]]" &mdash; that is, new theories that have not been published in a peer-reviewed journal. For more details about what Wikipedia should include, see [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not|What Wikipedia is not]] and [[Wikipedia:Notability (people)|Notability (people)]].

We also tend to discourage authors from writing about themselves or their own accomplishments, as this is a [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest|conflict of interest]]. If you have made notable accomplishments, someone else will write an article about you (eventually).  [[Wikipedia:Autobiography]] has more detail on this.

===Neutral point of view===
Wikipedia's editorial policy is that articles must be written in "'''[[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]]'''," often abbreviated "NPOV." This policy says that we accept all the significant viewpoints on an issue. Instead of simply stating one perspective, we try to present all relevant viewpoints without judging them. Our aim is to be informative, not persuasive. Our policy does NOT mean that our articles are expected to be 100% "[[wiktionary:objective|objective]]," since in any dispute all sides believe their view to be "true."

It is okay to state opinions in articles, but they must be presented as opinions, not as fact. Also, it is a good idea to attribute these opinions, for example "Supporters of this say that..." or "Notable commentator X believes that..."

You might hear Wikipedians referring to an article as having a "POV" problem. This is Wikipedia slang for a biased article, or one obviously written from a single perspective. Advertising copy would fall in this category, as would a political [[wikt:diatribe|diatribe]]. In a less extreme case, an article might have "POV" problems if it spends significantly more time discussing one view than another view of equivalent significance, even if each view is presented neutrally, or if the article gives excessive coverage to a minor viewpoint.

If you are going to spend time on controversial articles in subjects like religion or politics, it is important that you read the neutral point of view policy page as soon as possible. You should probably also read the essay [[Wikipedia:Staying cool when the editing gets hot|Staying cool when the editing gets hot]]. If you are going to spend your time on less emotional topics such math, or video games, you should still read the policies, but it is a less pressing concern. Keep in mind the advice here, and read the full policy if an NPOV issue comes up. See also the [[Wikipedia:NPOV tutorial|NPOV tutorial]].

===Citing sources===
Wikipedia requires that you cite sources for the information you contribute, preferably by adding a footnote, as discussed in the "Citing Sources" page of this tutorial.  Citations help our readers verify what you have written and find more information. 

If any websites would be of particular interest to a reader of an article, they should be listed and linked to in an "External links" section. Books of particular interest should be listed in a "Further reading" section, but only if they were not used as sources for the article.

===Copyrights===
Do not add copyrighted materials to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright owner.  When adding information to articles, make sure it is written in your own words.  Remember that all information found on the Internet is copyrighted unless the website specifically states otherwise.

===English dialects===
All common forms of words are welcome on Wikipedia. An abridged version of the policy here could be stated as:
:1. Do not edit a page simply to "correct" a spelling that is correct in another language.
:2. If the subject of an article is related to the [[United States|U.S.]], then U.S. English is preferred:
::[[Child labor laws in the United States|Child ''labor'' laws in the United States]]
:3. If the subject is related to an organization using British English ([[United Kingdom|UK]], Commonwealth, Ireland, UN, etc.) then British English is preferred.<!--The same applies to most European topics, as people in Europe mostly see British English-->:
::[[On-licence|On-''licence'']]
:4. If the subject is not a regional one ("astronomy," for example), the original contributor's usage should be followed.  See [[American and British English differences]] if you have difficulty with this.
:5. The usage should be consistent throughout an article, ''unless'' it mentions both US- and Britain/Commonwealth-related topics. In that case, Policies 2 and 3 prevail.
:6. When you create a new article, generally the most commonly used title is preferred. A simple way of testing this is to try a [[Wikipedia:Search engine test|Search engine test]] on one of the [[Wikipedia:Search engine test|common search engines]], and see what generates more results.

==Conduct==
Wikipedia encourages an atmosphere of friendliness and openness.  Of course, in practice there are sometimes disagreements and even an occasional heated argument, but members of the community are expected to behave in a generally [[Wikipedia:Civility|civil]] manner.

The most important thing to keep in mind is that you should always [[Wikipedia:Assume good faith|assume good faith]] on the part of other editors.  Do not assume that someone is acting out of spite or malice.  If someone does something that upsets you, leave a polite message on the relevant article's talk page or on the user's talk page, and ask why.  You may find that you have avoided a misunderstanding and saved yourself some embarrassment.

==Creating articles==
When creating articles on Wikipedia, try to take the advice given in the tutorial and to follow the policies mentioned here, such as [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutrality]]. It is important to [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|cite sources]] to establish the notability of the topic and make the article [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verifiable]]. You need to be registered to directly create an article in the encyclopedia, but if you are not, you can still use the [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation|articles for creation]] process.

==Renaming articles==
If you find an article that you believe is mis-named, please do not copy and paste the contents of the old article into a new article — among other things, it separates the previous contributions from their edit history (which we need to keep track of for [[Wikipedia:Copyrights|copyright]] reasons). The preferred method is to '''move''' the page to the new name, you need to be registered for that. If it is your first move, please read the warnings on the move page carefully, as there are a number of issues to consider before moving a page. If a "disambiguation" page is involved, it is best to review [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation]].
