COI Edit Requests

From The TMS Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

This page is a place where editors with a conflict of interest may suggest edits that they would like made to pages about themselves of their products. Volunteer editors who don't have a conflict of interest can then implement these suggestions into the relevant page, editing them if necessary so that they meet the standards of the wiki. See Conflict of Interest Policy for more background information about this page.

[edit] Directions for volunteers

  • Any TMS Wiki editor who does not have a conflict of interest is welcome to take text from here and add it or a modification of it to the relevant page.
  • Interested editors should add this page to their watch list by clicking "More Tools" at the top of the page, then "Watch this Page". After doing so, you will receive email notices whenever this page is changed and can add your own input.
  • Read the rest of this page for further guidance.
  • Describe any changes that you make in the discussion thread where the original request was made.

If you are a COI editor who would like to add COI content, you can make a request by starting a discussion thread below, where it says, "Start a New Thread as ..." If your request involves the addition of text to a page, you must also provide a draft of text so that the volunteer has something to work with. If you would like to include links or pictures, write the draft below this box and paste a copy into your forum post.

[edit] To get your suggestion implemented, you should do the following

  • Volunteers don't want to do extensive editing of the draft that you provide, but will only add text if it meets the standards of the wiki. Therefore, provide them with text that is as high quality as possible.
  • The standards of the wiki are still in the process of being formalized. Some guidance can be found in our Policies and Guidelines in brief and The Voice of the Wiki. Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy can give you an idea of the standard we hope to attain.
  • Volunteers are more interested in helping TMS professionals who are active members of the community. There are many pages that you can edit directly, so help out! Alternatively, participate in some of the discussion threads. Even working on your own profile page helps.
  • Read either: TMSWiki:About Books & DVDs, etc. Pages or About: TMS Professional Pages for guidelines.
  • Rather than linking off of the site, it is better to link to the relevant wiki page about a product or person.

Trivia: Wikipedia has something very similar to this page.
