It is still under construction and content may change. Do not rely on the information on this page.
For policy pages, accuracy and clarity are important. You are encouraged to edit the wiki to improve it. If you have any substantive changes to make to this page, use the talk page to discuss the changes with other page maintainers. Do this before making the changes.
Introduction
This page not intended to be a style guide, but rather a guide indicating what technical elements are required for a wiki page to be considered complete from a wiki gardening perspective.
Page naming
The current naming convention is to largely abandon
Links
Links to the Fedora Project wiki should always be internal links, and not external links.
Size
Generally you should consider splitting a document into multiple pages if the document size exceeds 32KB. This is by no means a hard limit but rather one element to take into consideration.
Header
If a header exists for a given project that a page belongs to it should be included in the documents.
Headings
You should subdivide your content with headings. Mediawiki automatically will create table of contents. Using headers also permits you to link directly to sections of a page.
Includes
Do not repeat content from another page manually. That creates additional work to edit and change. Using includes permits changes to occur in one place and be updated everywhere it is used.
Categories
Each page should have at least one category, and it will be a rare page that has only one catgory. In our current implementation Categories are the guide spaces for the wiki. You can find a list of all categories here.
