Instructions

Creating a draft article takes four steps. Please read carefully.

  1. Enter the content of your article in the blank area as illustrated. You may use the Wikipedia Cheatsheet to properly format your article.
    • Remember to use your own words. Do not copy content from another website.
  2. List your references in the bulleted area provided or cite them using inline citations. (See example.)
  3. If you need help with your submission, you can visit our IRC chat or Discord. You may use any nickname you like which isn't already taken.
  4. When you are finished writing, click the "Publish page" button. You are all done! We appreciate your submission.

Important

  • Please note: Once you click the "publish" button, your draft is saved in a public drafting area. You may continue to work on your draft as long as you like; there is no deadline, but bear in mind that if the draft isn't edited in six months, it may be deleted.
  • If the draft is declined, you will still be able to edit it. It is simply marked as declined.
  • When you feel your draft is ready to become an article, you can request a review (or a re-review). To do so, edit your draft, by clicking on its "Edit" button, and add {{subst:submit}} at the beginning of your draft.
