Guidelines

The (simplified) guidelines on Wikipedia, resting on the five pillars, include:

• Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, the content that you add must fit in an encyclopedia.
• Write in a neutral point of view.
• All content added must be free content that anyone can use, edit, and distribute. (copyrights)

Further:

• Use references to source facts in your article.
• Sign your messages in talk pages with ~~~~.

11 points to keep in mind:

• add only knowledge that belongs in an encyclopedia
• add only material that is available under a free license or express it in your own words
• describe this knowledge from a neutral position
• add references and sources for the added information
• do not write about your organisation, yourself, a family member, or your boss
• do not describe new theories, new insights or thoughts and no opinions
• see articles about similar topics as an example
• use headings to structurise an article
• use internal links (links to other articles on Wikipedia)
• do not add links to other sites in the body text, add those only at the bottom of the article
• use no qualifications (best, most, etc)
• write timeless (not: "the last century", "next month", "recent", yes: "on 27 September 2016")
