Scrabdackle Wiki:Contributing Guidelines

The following project guidelines have been implemented to allow planning and documentation of the wiki.

The reason this is so important is so that editors - both new and old - know what work has taken place, why decisions were made, and what work is currently on-going. This is so that we can collaboratively add onto each other's work to improve the wiki.

Please see the before making one of your own.

If you are new, consider tackling one of the pages on PAGES_WITH_TODO. These are smaller work items that can familiarize yourself with wiki editing.

Project Specification Guide

 * Project Description - A short written thing on what your project does and why it is useful
 * List of Tasks
 * A List of Tasks are the steps that one needs to take to consider the project "done".
 * Use whatever system you want for documenting what to do, as long as it is clear. Use your best judgement as to what clear means
 * Ongoing work (optional; if it's something that’s supposed to update with the game)
 * Notes/Progress
 * The Notes Section is a log of progress and misc notes.
 * User(s) in charge of this project
 * (Reccomended) have at least one other reviewer
 * This is so people don't go off and do things by themselves and cause confusion
