Housekeeping Rules

  • Please refrain from redundancy, such as referring to the Internet Computer in article titles. This is, after all, the Internet Computer Wiki.
  • Please carefully consider your use of capitalization. Not all words in Titles are capitalized (using same pattern as Wikipedia). DFINITY is always stylized in all-caps.
  • Please do not use the word "we", many people may later edit the article leaving "we" ambiguous.
