DRAFT
The Debian Wiki is a support resource for both users and developers alike that contains information that is not found or does not belong on other sources of information in Debian.
- Content on this wiki should be about Debian!
- Content should be polished and useful to readers. Draft pages should be created under your userspace, and can be moved to its final location once finished.
Choose an appropriate namespace for new pages. Most of the time, there is a namespace for the topic your page is about that you can place your page under. For example, information on packaging should be a subpage of Packaging. Consider your personal userspace and the Teams wiki pages.
- See if there's an existing page that can be improved before creating a new page to
- Does your content belong on the wiki? See below for other places content can go.
https://www.debian.org/doc/ - Official Debian documentation. This includes information on releases and the installation guide.
https://packages.debian.org/ - Information on Debian packages. Consider whether content is better suited for the package description or its README.Debian instead of creating a new page.
https://bugs.debian.org/ - Debian bugs. Consider documenting problems there instead.
https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/ - Any discussions are best suited here.
https://manpages.debian.org/ - Manual pages for packages in Debian.
- Some teams have websites where official documentation exists, and that should be used instead of the wiki.
