Gynopedia is a new wiki | ''Gynopedia is a relatively new wiki; we don't have many guidelines yet. Below, we have included the Community Rules and the Editing Guidelines. Let us know if you think something should be added, changed, or clarified (contact us by email: gynopediawiki@gmail.com).'' | ||

4. | 4. No spam. If you spam the site with advertisements for irrelevant products, your account/IP address will be blocked. | ||
5. | 5. Real Information only. We strongly encourage you to contribute -- but only if you know the information is relevant and reliable to the community. Inaccurate or outdated information can make people feel discouraged or waste their time. Of course, some information will eventually become outdated. But, to the best of your abilities, try to make the information up-to-date. | ||
6. | 6. Cite your sources. If you find information from a study, newspaper article, blog post, or website, please cite the references. See the Editing Guidelines below for details on citations. | ||
7. | 7. Use local currency. Whenever you list prices, list prices in the local currency as opposed to "global currencies," like dollars, euros, pounds, etc. That way, even if exchange rates shift, users can still know local prices. | ||
8. | 8. Add relevant dates. Whenever possible, include the date of when you received the service or found the data. For example, you can write something like, "As of May 2015, EC pills in Madrid are about 20 euro." | ||
9. | 9. Use license-free images. For example, these can be images found through Creative Commons, Google searches under "labeled for reuse" or your own personal images, if you expect no license for their use. | ||
10. | 10. Protect Private Information. If an abortion clinic does not have a public website, or if it's operating in an underground/clandestine capacity, please contact the clinic and ask permission before publicly posting any information about it. | ||
11. No | 11. No medical diagnoses. This is a website to find information on laws, social stigmas, resources and recommendations. It's not a place to find official medical diagnoses. Consult your doctor for these types of questions. | ||
12. '''The information on Gynopedia is free to read, distribute and share for ''non-commercial use only'''''. | 12. No opinion-based advertisement from physicians, hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies. If you recommend a physician, hospital or clinic because you were a patient or know about a real patient's experience, please contribute. But, if you are in any way affiliated with a service (for example, you work for a clinic), please refrain from adding opinion-based information on that service, such as "This clinic is highly recommended." | ||
13. Do Your Own Research. This community aims to provide as much useful information as possible. However, before you make any major decisions that impact your health, your safety, or your legal status, please do your own independent research as well. | |||

1. '''What's | 1. '''What's wikitext?''' When editing articles on Gynopedia, you'll sometimes need to use wikitext. You can see an example of wikitext in the image we've provided. If you're familiar with HTML, you can think of wikitext as a very basic form of HTML. If you're not familiar with HTML, that's okay! You'll find that wikitext is very straightforward. Basically, it's how we format wiki pages with things like headers, image insertions, and captions. | ||
* Tip: If you plan to use any of the wikitext that we've provided on this page, make sure to copy and paste the wikitext ''exactly'' as you see it. | |||
* Example: For reference, check out the example of a new Melbourne page with wikitext. You can see triple quotation marks (this makes text bold) and equal signs (this creates headers). For further details and examples, check out this [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext wikitext Language] article. | |||
2. '''Distinguishing Between Cities:''' To distinguish between two cities with the same name (for example, Los Angeles, USA and Los Angeles, Chile), please add this | 2. '''Distinguishing Between Cities:''' To distinguish between two cities with the same name (for example, Los Angeles, USA and Los Angeles, Chile), please add this wikitext at the top of the page when in 'Edit' view (see below). You'll want to specify the country (e.g. United States), state or region (California) and city (Los Angeles). Note that "state" can also apply to region (for example, Luzon region of the Philippines). | ||

4. '''Naming Pages with Non-English Characters:''' If you are adding a page that has non-English characters (for example, Malmö), please go ahead and include those non-English characters. As a general rule, the pages should be written in Latin script but can include all characters. However, be sure to create a standard English language-only page (for example, "Malmo") that redirects users to the correct page (Malmö). That way, users who type in either "Malmö" or "Malmo" can go to the same page. For details on redirecting pages, please check out [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Redirect instructions] from Wikipedia. | 4.
