It's expected that any information added to the wiki is clearly cited, where applicable, as many users do not appreciate unverifiable speculation, unless it is plainly stated as such. That is to say, feel free to write what ''might'' or ''might not'' be factual, but qualify what is ''intended'' to be factual with verifiable information by posting a link where appropriate. However, we want to facilitate community contributions to the wiki, so we encourage all users to get involved. The [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Cite Cite] extension is available on this wiki and makes adding inline citations and references easy. | |||

Wiki Maintenance Guide
Standards and tips for editing the Step wiki
by: Step Modifications | Forum Topic
Definition of a wiki:
- "...a website or database developed collaboratively that allows users to add, delete, or revise content by using a web browser."
The Step Modifications wiki is intended to be a community-driven project; although, most contributions to date have originated from only a handful of contributors. Our goal is to make it easy for all community members to contribute by helping us maintain existing content and developing new content. We created this reference to help our userbase get more comfortable working within a wiki environment.
