The five good article criteria
A good article is:
- Well-written:
- the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct; and;
- it complies with the best practise for use of for lead sections, layout, images, and other guidelines.
- Verifiable:
- When possible, it draws on references such as GNS or ING posts, other Archives material, WayBackWhen content, etc, and;
- References used should be included at the bottom of the page so others can follow up on them directly should they wish, and the reference should be cited inline
- Broad in its coverage:
- It addresses the main aspects of the topic, and;
- It remains focussed on the topic without going into unrelated detail which adds no value.
- Neutral: although an Imperial source, the Archives should present a consistent and reliable accounting of the topics it covers. It may be putting forward an Imperial viewpoint, but this should be made clear. The Archives should not put forward Rebel- or anti-Imperial views, as these will be articulated elsewhere.
- Illustrated: whereever possible articles should include images illustratin their topic, and/or links to media doing the same
