== Updated Guidelines ==
I updated the guidelines with some better language, did a little bit of reformating, added some examples, fixed the numbering/sectioning. [[User:Hoz|hoz]] 16:26, 25 July 2006 (CEST)

''Which'' English? ;) <br>
British, American? I noticed a lot of British spelling, especially in this article. Do we have a policy? Do we care? ;) --[[User:Kronzky|Kronzky]] 17:16, 25 July 2006 (CEST)
:I am afraid this is up to native speakers here. I personaly do not care (and often do not know which is which). --[[User:Suma|Suma]] 17:18, 25 July 2006 (CEST)

== Updated Guidelines ==
Since I did some major work on the guidelines last night, and since it's hard to keep track of the changes via the "history" function when there are re-arrangements, here's a breakdown of what I did (apart from the grammatical and stylistic editing).
*[[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#No_Flaming.2FFlame-baiting|Flaming]]: Put in an external link for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_bait flaming]. A lot of people do not know what this is, so we better explain if we want them to avoid it.
*[[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#Images|Images]]: Added example for meaningful image names.
*[[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#No_Developer_Questions|No Developer Questions]]:Split part of these guidelines off into the [[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#Discussion_Pages|Discussion Pages]] and [[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#Writing_an_Article|Writing an Article]] sections. Removed the highlighting for the "developers", as that made it seem like it's ok to ask anybody else, as long as you don't ask the developers directly.
*Created a [[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#Discussion_Pages|Discussion Pages]] section, which received part of the content of the original "Talk Pages" section.
*Created a section on [[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#Writing_an_Article|Writing an Article]].
*Created a section called [[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#Create.2Fedit_Sections|Create/edit Sections]] which received part of the content from the old "Talk Pages" and the "Use the section edit button" section.
*[[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#Use_Full_Names_for_Titles|Use Full Names for Titles]]: Added an example to this section.
*Created a section recommding to [[Bohemia_Interactive_Community:Guidelines#Use_the_Preview_button|Use the Preview button]].

Revision as of 17:07, 3 August 2006

Videos

The question arose if people can/should upload videos. I think not, to save some of BI's traffic, as with videos it can get pretty fast pretty full. --raedor 18:43, 25 July 2006 (CEST)

Should add this to the proposal page. hoz
I'll add it to the proposal page but generalize it with the request for pbo, sqm etc. hoz
