Best Practices– Present a neutral point of view in an impartial voice. You are writing an
encyclopedia, not a press release or journal article.– Accuracy and verifiability: Reference known facts using verifiable sources
and fact-check references for accuracy. – Avoid Conflict of Interest: Editing articles about yourself, or an organization
or person for whom you work, is a potential conflict of interest. Simple factual changes (maybe); more substantive changes (propose first on talk page)
– Transparency: Disclose your affiliation to any organization for whom you work on your user page.

you don’t exactly match the title of a target page

A Good Article Should:
• Be neutral in tone• Be a reasonable length• Be well organized and readable• Include inline citations supporting all
information, for the article’s {{reflist}}• Link to other relevant topics on Wikipedia• Be linked to by other relevant topics on
Wikipedia • Contain relevant images when possible
![Page 64: Wikipedia for GLAMS_by_jentzsch_&_ockerbloom](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c7a8594a7959300f8b4599/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Tips for Creating New Articles
• Start in your Sandbox• Create an article of some length – don’t stop
at three sentences• The ‘lead’ or first paragraph must establish the
significance of the topic of the article – why should this person/thing be in an encyclopedia
• If robots or people leave messages, ask yourself “How can I improve my article?”
![Page 65: Wikipedia for GLAMS_by_jentzsch_&_ockerbloom](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c7a8594a7959300f8b4599/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Exploring and Asking for Help• If you like what someone has done on a page, click edit on the page to see
how they did it• Read the talk page of an article to assess the integrity of the content and
past questions or concerns.• Ask for advice on Project talk pages (e.g. Chemistry) if you have a concern
about something you want to write
• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/Beginner's_guide_to_Wikipedia
• Search on both Content and Help and Project pages• Explore the Help item on the sidebar and its decision tree• Go to the Teahouse “A friendly place to ask questions”• Add a {{helpme}} template to your talk page with an outline of your
question to attract a volunteer
