Guidelines for Creating New Pages
Welcome to the rules for creating new pages in our DokuWiki! Please follow these guidelines carefully to maintain consistency, clarity, and usability across our documentation.
1. Page Naming Rules
- Namespace Structure: All new pages must follow the hierarchical structure outlined below:
- First Level Namespace: Specify the main category, such as `low_voltage`, `high_voltage`, `compatibility_matrix`, or `monitoring_control`.
- Second Level Namespace: Define the specific product, platform, or module (e.g., `SS4083`, `BmsEx`, `plant_control`).
- Third Level Namespace: Specify the page content type, such as `datasheet`, `manual`, or `troubleshooting`.
- Example: `low_voltage:SS4083:manual` or `monitoring_control:BmsEx:troubleshooting`
- Descriptive Titles: Beyond the namespaces, the content should clearly describe the subject.
- Use Lowercase Letters: Except for proper nouns or acronyms.
- Avoid Special Characters: Stick to alphanumeric characters and underscores.
2. Media File Organization
- Namespace-Specific Media Files: All media files (e.g., images, documents) must be stored in the same namespace or folder as the page that uses them.
- Example: If the page is `low_voltage:SS4083:manual`, the media files should be stored in `low_voltage:SS4083:media`.
- Naming Media Files: Use descriptive and concise names for media files to make them easily identifiable.
- File Types: Use common file formats (e.g., `.png`, `.jpg`, `.pdf`) for compatibility.
3. Formatting Standards
- Use Headings: Organize content using `======` for main titles and `=====`, `====`, etc., for subsections.
- Bullet Points & Tables: Use lists and tables for clarity whenever possible.
- Consistent Style: Write in a neutral tone, and use the active voice for clarity.
4. Adding Content
- Ensure Accuracy: Verify all information before adding it to the page.
- Citations: Provide links or references where appropriate.
- No Duplicates: Check if a similar page already exists before creating a new one.
5. Template Usage
- Use Page Templates: For specific types of content (e.g., FAQs, guides), use the pre-defined templates.
- Link to Templates: Include a link to available templates here (e.g., `example_template`).
Final Note
By following these rules, we ensure our DokuWiki remains an efficient and user-friendly resource for everyone.
Happy documenting!
