Gentoo Wiki:Article Blueprints/Meta

From Gentoo Wiki (test)
Jump to:navigation Jump to:search

The following is a semi-structured, rough software article blueprint users can copy and paste to create new 'Meta' articles. In general, it follows the Wiki guidelines (review if necessary). Be aware some information provided in the blueprint may not be needed; it is always easier to delete unneeded content than to type out new content.

  • Before copying it is possible to demo the Meta article blueprint by going here.
Important
Not every meta article will fit into the outline of this blueprint; it is simply a rough framework to assist in article creation, so be sure to modify as needed!

Suggestion for the article's Summary field: Initial creation of the <Software> meta article. Show it some love by improving it!
