* Be aware of all of the other pages that are on the wiki so that they can be cross referenced if needed on your new page.
* Ask fellow wiki editors and the main MTF group to proof read your writing, and check for factual consistencies.
* Expect that your work can be edited by anyone on the wiki team. However, please respect the previous editor's work. If changing a wiki page that someone else has been editing, the polite thing to do is to send them a message and get their feedback on your suggestions or changes.
* General writing style should be as informational as possible, and as free from bias and personal opinion of the writer as possible. Instead, quote or reference the opinion of reliable and reputable sources.
* Avoid re-writing material that is in brewing books such as ''America Sour Beers''. We should supplement the information in these books, and citing too much information from a book might discourage sells of books and alienate their authors from our group!
* Avoid using pseudonyms for scientific names. For example, instead of typing "Lacto", "Brett" or "Sacch", type "''Lactobacillus''", "''Brettanomyces''", and "''Saccharomyces''". Scientific names should be italicized. Occurrences of pseudonyms on the wiki should be corrected.
