Contributions to the FARPN Wiki are welcome and encouraged! Cleaning up or editing an existing page, or adding new pages and tutorials are great ways to get involved. Please reach out via our Matrix chat in the #Wiki room in order to get started. We'll get you set up with an account, and answer any questions you might have.

- Thou shalt use alt-text to describe images. - Do not copy-and-paste from other pages to create pages here (except for N6CTA's blog) - If you are incorporating a substantial piece of material, make sure that it falls under a permissible license to post it here.

Below are a few best practices that we encourage for the Wiki.

Try not to write in the first person, but writing tutorials with “we” and “you” is acceptable. When editing, try to follow the existing writing style than completely rewriting it.

Where possible, be clear and concise.

Keep examples as simple as possible. Clearly denote what parts of examples must be changed by the person following them. It is good to define the information to change before providing example text.

Clearly designate things that are optional, or may only apply in certain situations.

Always specify the filename and suggested location before providing any example text.

Use

''two-single-quotes''

around program and file names.

Put ``

`` around any big blocks of configuration files or program examples.

Use headings liberally, with the highest level heading for the page title, sections with the second highest level, and sub-sections with the third highest level. Do not skip levels of headings.
