=== Writing Style === | |||
When writing content outside of the userspace, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammatical_person third-person writing style] should be used. Other writing styles are acceptable, depending upon the particular context of the article; however, any factual content created to serve as an informative article (e.g., guides and references) should be written in the third person. This is more clear and professional and not as prone to degenerating into a mess of first-second person reversions. Any content that exist outside userspaces and is also not written in the third person should be corrected accordingly. Examples: | |||
* {{fc|red|First person: "I first must click on the 'edit' button ..."}} | |||
* {{fc|red|Second person: "You first must click on the 'edit' button ..."}} | |||
* {{fc|green|Third person: "First, click on the 'edit' button ..."}} | |||

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.
