- Read the naming scheme for this wiki
- Visit the Re.ViCa Wiki Editing Tutorial to learn more about editing this wiki (formatting, table, useful links such as an excel-to-wiki converter)
- When saving your page, use the "Summary" and "Minor Edit" at the bottom of the "Save" page to make reviewing pages easier for all users
- Use the templates when publishing your research:
- Try to avoid promotional texts
- View the MediaWiki's Help page
- Finally, read the disclaimer before you start:
- Disclaimer
- This wiki is a work in progress. Many of the judgements that are being made on institutions and projects are at this stage tentative and subject to further analysis by the project with the help of the Advisory Committee - and may be found challenging by some readers. The project is collecting information on projects from many sources, several of which are not and may never be public.
- Information on individuals is as far as possible collected from public sources and written in "curriculum vitae" fashion, focussing on their strengths and abilities and not on irrelevant personal information.
- If any individual feels that information on them requires correction then it is within the spirit of the wiki approach for them to do that for their own entry.

- for questions about our project you can contact the project coordinator via the contact details on our external project web site
