Everyone should visit this page as the first task upon entering our wiki. These are a few rules that all wiki users should follow:

1. Keep it safe!

Never post your personal information or information about

someone else. Keep things like ages, addresses, phone numbers, names of

towns, or even places you work off the Internet.

Be Nice!

2. Treat others as you want to be treated -- don’t write mean or

hurtful comments. Remember you are not anonymous!


3. Information please!

The Internet is a great source of information

but information is only useful when it is accurate. Before referencing a

website, ask and answer a few simple questions:

  • Who is the author and what are their qualifications or credentials?

  • What type of information is provided?

  • When was the information created? When was it last updated or revised?

  • Where is the information coming from- is the domain a .edu, .gov, .org?

  • Why is the information posted; to educate, to inform, to present unbiased views, to

  • entertain, to sell or entice?

Tell your teacher, if you find information on the wiki that shouldn't be there. First show your teacher. Don't respond and don't edit the wiki.
