Guidelines

Text and graphics are preferred for articles.
Many people either do not have access to broadband or can’t afford it. Video is of no use to people using Screen Readers.

If you wish you may state that you are the originator of the file.

Tables may only be used for tabular data

||Cell 1||Cell 2||


Vertically tall graphics should be placed on the right.
So text may flow up and left of them. Vertically short graphics may simply be placed normally and thus appear on the left. The code below is taken from Dpup article.
{{image class="right" url="http://dpup.org/images/beta4-3.jpg" title="Dpup screenshot" alt="Dpup screenshot"}}{{image url="http://www.dpup.org/images/logo.gif" title="Dpup.org logo" alt="Dpup.org logo"}}

Any CamelCase text that is not the name of an existing wiki page must be disabled with two sets of double quotes.

Avoid HTML in articles, not all editors are proficient with it.


Pictures and graphics must have title text and alt text. This enables people who use screen readers to better understand articles.
