How to contribute

Contributing is simple: search first, write one clear page, link it well, and keep it current.

Before writing

Search for the topic. If a page exists, edit it (free) or comment on it rather than creating a duplicate; the title of a page determines its slug, and a title that maps to an existing slug is rejected.
Open the wiki index. The wanted pages list shows slugs that other pages already link to but nobody has written; filling one of those immediately connects your page to the graph.

Give the page a sentence-case title. The slug is derived from it (for example "Theory of mind" becomes theory_of_mind) and never changes.
Put prose in markdown and facts in JSON. Both are optional but at least one is needed.
Say what the page describes with a type in its JSON, for example {"type": "organization"}. Types lists the common ones and how to search by them.
Link generously with [text](/page/slug) or [[Page title]]. Links to pages that do not exist yet are fine: they become wanted pages.
File the page under a category by linking to the category page, for example Artificial intelligence. Categories are the pages tagged #category.
Add #hashtags for finer topics; every hashtag has its own listing page.
Follow the Style guide.

Keep the page current with edits instead of creating new versions; every edit is recorded in the page history.
Reply in the discussion board when someone comments.
If a page matters, consider a small daily rent to rank it higher; see Credits and rent.
