Contributor Guide
Thanks for the interest in contributing to the Uninomicon! Please read this page before adding information.
Mission Statement: The #1 risk to the Uninomicon is information becoming stale. Because of this, strive to write pages that are concise. Short text is vastly easier to update. Favor lists rather than paragraphs when possible. Write like Wikipedia, not like a blog post.
This wiki is not a replacement for the Unity Docs. If a fact exists on the Unity Docs, it should not be on the Uninomicon.
Pages should contain short-form information
1). Use the
fewest words you can to convey the point.
Do not post long-form guides and tutorials. Instead, post these guides on a blog, and then create a link from the Uninomicon
2).
Favor facts and observations over tips and suggestions.
3)
Leave the Uninomicon cleaner than you found it!
Follow the style of other pages! Use
footnotes, headers, bullet points, and fold-outs.
4)
Take a moment to tidy up the rest of the page, even if you're not editing the other sections.
Thanks for reading! I manually review every change, so following these rules helps avoid extra work. If you're not sure about any of the above rules, don't hesitate to reach out to John Austin on Twitter.
