-**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 edit. Favor lists rather than narrative-paragraphs. Write like Wikipedia, not like a blog post.

   - Pages should contain short-form information((lists, short paragraphs, etc)). 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link from the Uninomicon((Long form text is a *big* maintenance burden, but it is easy to remove a link when it becomes out of date)).
-  - Favor facts and observations over tips and suggestions. (('Cookbook' style references are great, but become stale quickly as times change. The [[http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/Main_Page|Unity Community Wiki]] is a better place for cook-book style recipes.))

 ==== Leave the Uninomicon cleaner than you found it! ====
