Do not request an article before searching the Wiki for the information.

Making a request page[edit | edit source]

To request an article create a new page with an appropriate name, and add one of the following lines at the top to add it to the category list at the bottom.

tutorial requests
{{Request Tutorial}}
glossary requests
{{Request Glossary}}
all other requests
{{Request Other}}

On the request page you should include as much information as possible. Obviously glossary requests need little explanation, but tutorial requests need to be as detailed as possible.

In addition, requests should contain information about where you looked for this information. These requests are expected to be for things that are missing, not things that you are too lazy to find. At least an attempt to find information on your own is expected. Information about where you expected to find information helps the Wiki determine where information should go, to make it more easy to navigate.

Any request without an explanatory name or which is requesting information without at least some attempt to find it will be summarily deleted without warning or explanation.
