Tips on writing articles

• ALWAYS SEARCH FOR EXISTING ARTICLES ON YOUR TOPIC before creating a new one. Edit the existing article or if appropriate, link off of it. The Goal of the wiki is to have one article on each topic and everyone edits the same article.

• To learn formatting, it is helpful to find an existing wiki article that has the desired format. Click on the "edit" tab to view formatting styles.

• "Preview" the article before saving by clicking on the "show preview" tab at the bottom of the page.

• Write in the style of a manual

• Use an imperative voice, instead of first or second person

ex. Use: "Check the box 'my data has headers'" not: "You will need to check the box 'my data has headers'"

First or second person point of view narrative examples to avoid are I, my, we, and you

• Reduce screenshots to 75% before uploading them
