{{GuideStep
| step = 1
| title = Use Talk pages to suggest changes
| text = Every wiki page has a '''Talk''' tab. If you think something on someone else's project page should change — a factual correction, an update, a broken link — leave a note on the Talk page rather than editing the page directly. Let the creator respond first. If the creator is inactive and the issue is clear-cut (e.g. a dead link), it's fine to fix it.
| note = The Talk page for any page is at Talk:PageName — click the Talk tab at the top of the page.
}}
{{GuideStep
| step = 2
| title = Don't rewrite other people's project pages
| text = A project page belongs to the person or team behind the project. Feel free to fix typos or formatting issues, but don't rewrite descriptions, change statuses, or alter information about the project without the creator's knowledge.
}}
{{GuideStep
| step = 3
| title = Credit your collaborators
| text = If your project involved help from others in the community, mention them on your project page — in the Creator field, in the body text, or both. Small acknowledgements go a long way in a community built on selfless contribution.

{{GuideStep
| step = 4
| title = Only submit what you can license
| text = Only submit projects and tutorials that you created, or that you have explicit permission to share under an open license. When in doubt, choose CC-BY-SA 4.0 and document your sources on the project page.
| warning = Do not upload trademarked logos, copyrighted images, or proprietary assets — even if you own the project. If an asset isn't openly licensed, don't upload it.
}}
{{GuideStep
| step = 5
| title = Keep descriptions accurate and honest
| text = Don't oversell your project. A status of '''Active''' means you're currently working on it. '''Hiatus''' means paused. '''Completed''' means genuinely finished. '''Abandoned''' means you've walked away. Accurate statuses help others decide whether to pick up where you left off.

{{GuideStep
| step = 6
| title = Assume good faith
| text = If an edit seems odd, or someone's phrasing is unclear, assume they meant well and ask before assuming bad intent. Most problems on wikis come from misunderstandings, not malice.
}}
{{GuideStep
| step = 7
| title = Ask before you ask
| text = Before posting a question on the forum, check the [[FAQ]] and browse [[Special:Search]] — your question may already be answered. When you do ask, include enough context that someone can help you without asking five follow-up questions.
}}
{{GuideStep
| step = 8
| title = You don't have to finish everything
| text = Incomplete submissions are fine. An Abandoned project with good documentation is more valuable than nothing. Half a tutorial is better than no tutorial. This is UnfinishedProjects — the unfinished state is a feature, not a failure.
