Neutrality and objectivity

This Wiki should be an informative place that allows an open exchange of information. For this to work, users must observe a couple of ground rules. This not only affects articles on discussion pages, but primarily the style of writing in your own articles. The following should therefore be avoided:

  • Malicious slander,
  • Personal insults,
  • Typical troll expressions,
  • Intentional misinformation.

In terms of neutrality and objectivity, we follow the same guidelines as Wikipedia. Refer to the article there entitled Neutral point of view!

Comprehensibility and clarity

Many articles in this Wilki are technical documents. Good technical documentation ensures that the text can be easily understood. Convoluted sentences should be avoided. Each sentence should contain a clear, unique statement. Complex facts should also be properly clarified. Suitable means of providing clarification include, depending on the facts, illustrative graphics or multimedia material such as small films that indicate operation. Please refern here to: How do I add images and multimedia?

Integration in das Wiki

Neue Artikel sollten mit den übrigen Wiki-Inhalten "harmonisieren". Das bedeutet:

  • New articles sollten sich in Bezug auf Länge und Detailtiefe an vergleichbaren Artikeln orientieren.
  • Verwenden Sie möglichst die gleiche Fachterminologie wie andere, vergleichbare Artikel innerhalb des Wikis.
  • Verlinken Sie neue Artikel wie in How do I create an article? beschrieben.
