Help:The ChemWiki Model

Best Practices

• add documentation on each Category and each Property page
• all used categories and properties must be defined
• property pages must contain a Datatype annotation
• property pages should contain a hint describing the objects for which they can be used
• there should be one form for each category that should be manually created/modified
  • the name of the form should be similar/equal to the category name
  • e.g. Form:Molecule
• there should be one template for each category/form that is populated by the form
  • the name of the template should be similar/equal to the category name
  • e.g. Template:Molecule
• the template pages should be documented and the expected parameters should be described in the noinclude section
• some forms have parameters that should not be modified, nevertheless it is often beneficial to show them in read-only mode in the form
• ideally each page contains exactly one template and is fully specified by this template and all its parameters
  • exceptions are the publication and information pages, which are free text
