They follow a roughly standard format and include details of community action projects, initiatives by topic, resources, networks, sustainability initiatives, news, events and further links.\n\n''Sample place articles'': [[Bristol community action]], [[San Francisco community action]], [[Nairobi community action]]\n\n{{Read more|CASwiki places}}\n\n=== Topic articles ===\n\n \nThese generally provide a list of actions or community action project ideas which communities can take or develop, and links to Resources. The articles might also include news and comment, or timeline sections. They include information about topics from a global or generic perspective which can provide a context for more localised information within the place based articles.\n\n''Sample topic articles'': [[Community involvement]], [[Climate action]], [[Community action on biodiversity]]\n\n{{Read more|CASwiki topics}}\n\n=== Resource articles ===\n\nIncluding links to more extensive information, calendars, video, maps, infographics, apps for sustainability, social media links, research, funding information, etc.\n\n''Sample resource articles'': [[Community resources]], [[Networks]], [[International sustainable community events]]\n\n{{Read more|CASwiki resources}}\n\n{{Helpout}}\n\n== Join our group ==\n\nTo join the CASwiki group just copy and paste the following (including brackets) code into your userpage:\n\n<pre>{{User data\n| groups = CASwiki group\n}}</pre>\n\nIncluding this code will include a user box on your userpage stating your membership in this group.\n\nPlease feel free to check out [[:Category:CASwiki group]], view their contributions or contact them with questions.\n\nEach time you revisit, our 'main page': [[Community action for sustainability]] might be a good place to start. Together with its [[Talk:Community action for sustainability|talk page]] it doubles up as a sort of community portal specifically for CASwiki.\n\n== Movements grow with stories ==\n\n{{Video|nkhMylanzYA}}\n\n== 10 reasons that green people are happier ==\n\n10 reasons that green people are happier, [http://web.archive.org/web/20170525154100/http://www.ecohustler.co.uk:80/2011/05/02/10-reasons/ ecohustler.co.uk], May 2, 2011\n\n{{CASwiki footer}}\n\n{{Page data\n| license = CC-BY-SA-3.0\n}}\n\n[[Category:Sustainable community action]]"}
