Guide:Wiki Maintenance

Template:TOC right Guide Forum Thread

This is intended to be a community-driven wiki, although all STEP wiki contributions have originated from only a handful of STEP site contributors. Our goal is to make it easy for all community members to contribute and help us maintain existing content and develop new content. The first step in doing that is to make our user base more comfortable with the idea of working on a wiki and thinking in wiki terms.

STEP Wiki Rules

• Do not place pages in incorrect categories. If you categorize a user page as a mod page, that is simply wrong.
• Do not edit a user's page unless asked to, except in the case where it is not abiding by another rule (as in, being categorized with the STEP Guides, when it is not one of them).

Like the cheatsheet...

Inline HTML and CSS

I believe that is what the span style tag is. This will give some common usages that are on step but will will guide the user to a link for what styles are valid like such
