| If you wish to help maintain and improve Appropedia, the following links will help you. For example, you can: | | {{CPheader}} |
| | | {{cat header| default.png |Appropedia maintenance| If you wish to help maintain and improve Appropedia, this category and its main topic page will help you. }} |
| * Make sure all articles are in suitable categories, using the links at [[#Help maintaining the category structure|Help maintaining the category structure]], below.
| |
| * Join the [[Appropedia:Recent changes patrol|Recent changes patrol]].
| |
| * Check [[:Category:Pages needing attention]].
| |
| * View the templates in [[:Category:Maintenance templates]], and click "What links here."
| |
| * Admins: please check [[:Category:Checkoriginal|requests for an admin to check an original document]]
| |
| * Check that there are no [[Special:DoubleRedirects|double redirects]].
| |
| | |
| If you want to help but maintenance tasks things don't interest you, no problem! You can create or edit pages describing a technology, a [[:Category:Projects|project]], write a "[[:Category:How tos|How to]]" or expand a [[:Category:Stubs|stub]].

| == Help maintaining the category structure ==
| |
| | |
| Here are some links that make it easy to ensure that the category structure is complete:
| |
| | |
| * [[Special:Uncategorizedpages]] - should be empty.
| |
| * [[Special:Uncategorizedcategories]] - should be empty, other than [[:Category:Fundamental]].
| |
| * [[Special:Unusedcategories]] - add suitable articles to categories, or (if you're an [[Appropedia:Admin|admin]]) consider deleting the categories.
| |
| * [[Special:Categories]] - should contain no redlinks. (When you create a category page, remember to put it in at least one other category, and add other info or templates as appropriate. ''See [[Appropedia:Category templates]]''.)
| |
| * [[Special:Wantedpages]] should contain no categories. Sometimes categories show up here because a category has been moved and some redirects not fixed yet.
| |
| * [[Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Category_redirect]] should have few or no pages. Pages should only be here temporarily, before being deleted by an admin.
| |
| | |
| == Linking to other wikis ==

| :''This is a proposed guideline. --[[User:Chriswaterguy|Chriswaterguy]] · <small>[[User talk:Chriswaterguy|talk]]</small> 03:34, 8 December 2006 (PST)''
| |
| | |
| When there are pages here which are worth linking from Wikipedia, we should add the link to the "External links" section of that article (or wherever appropriate). Of course we should ''only'' do this when it does add value to the relevant Wikipedia article, and not just to promote Appropedia.
| |
| | |
| As a general rule, link the editable pages - i.e. the normal pages, without '''(original)''' in the title, rather than original documents.
