Announcements

  Failure to obey general editing procedure will result in account warnings, and possible
  bannage, especially when making stub pages or uncategorized pages.  Creating minimalist pages
  or making disruptive edits is a hassle to change, delete, revise, etc.

Basics

Stop changing the Basics list. The reason it is there is so that pages with lots of links can be easily accessed. St. Mary's, JHU, and Princeton link nowhere; if you need to check on them, go through the Sites page (or just type in the URL).

!! -- New Pages -- !!

Please do not create stub articles; if you have a short spiel about something CTY-relevant, put it under the correct category in the Lexicon, unless the page is already on the Special:Wantedpages list. Also, article subjects that could be condensed into a single page (for example, the places around campus, our current site-enhancement project) should be; if you have, for example, something to contribute on the Superquad, instead of writing a stub about Superquad, make a general page (formatted: Topic:XXX) for it to house other stubs, and also link to existing non-stub pages. In this case, things about Superquad would go in Places:CAR.

Categories

If you do create a new page, please categorize it properly. Put it under a site or two if applicable (if it's all sites, don't put it under any sites). Categorize it as a Game, an Activity, a Student Group, a Traditions, etc. Then, put the site and the other category together, and categorize it as that too (i.e., Lancaster Traditions). Things that don't fall into any category go under "General."

Lexicon

Keep things alphabetical, and brief. Do not simply copy an article onto the Lexicon. Especially refrain from doing the opposite, and copying Lexicon stubs into full-fledged article pages; this is unnecessary and becomes a hassle.

New Project -- Places

To help out the site, please contribute to the Places pages for your individual site. If a page is not listed under the Basics section, name the page "Places:XXX", where XXX is the three-character site code, without the quotes. This should include all full sections on the different places around campus, with links to off-campus places like Turkey Hill, Massey's, etc. Look under the basics section for links to the pages, and start writing!
