Scribus Wiki Contributor Manual

Wiki Structure
It is advisable to keep the wiki structure as simple as possible to make sure that the readers can find the relevant information in as few steps as possible. When creating several paths to a particular document use Redirects. For an examples see the Debian and Ubuntu pages.

Templates
All templates that are used in this wiki are located in the Template Category. Please check this list before creating new templates. Use the templates to make the editing process more collaborative and efficient. For instance, Editorial Templates can be used at the top of pages to tag the pages for clarification, updates, or deletion.

Style guidelines
It is recommended to keep a neutral and uniform style of discourse. It is preferable not to switch between the first, second, and third person many times within the same article. Avoidance of colloquial words and phrases will help readers whose first language is not English. The sentences should be as short as possible.
