Scope

{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Janet Jackson/Sidebar}} The scope of the project covers articles about Janet Jackson and her life and work. Included are also people and things related to - or who have achieved a significant part of their notability through their connection to - Janet as an individual. All of these articles should be placed in the Category:Janet Jackson or one of its subcategories. Keeping in mind that the Janet Jackson category is a subcategory of the greater Category:Jackson family (show business) that this project generally watches over. The WikiProject Michael Jackson also keeps an eye on all the Jackson family related articles and is a project that we collaborate with in style and layout of articles were possible.

Citations

In accordance with Wikipedia policy, facts and assertions should be attributed to verifiable, reliable sources wherever possible (see WP:V and WP:RS).

The Project's preferred method for this is inline citations using the <ref> tag.

Usage is very simple. Examples:

Citing a book: <ref>Author, Book, ISBN, page number</ref>[1]

Citing a book multiple times: Gaar, Gillian G. "She's a rebel: the history of women in rock & roll", Template:ISBN (2002), Seal Press

<ref>Joedough, p23</ref>[2]

Reusing a reference:

<ref name="somewebsite">[http://www.web.com/ Some Website]</ref>[3] Second use<ref name="somewebsite"/>[3]

References

The citations are displayed by placing a Template:Tl tag at the bottom of the article.

<templatestyles src="Reflist/styles.css" />
  1. Author, Book, ISBN, page number
  2. Lewisohn, p23

Tips

?. Use common sense. Ultimately, assume good faith on the part of others, be bold in editing because perfection is not required.
See Wikipedia:Editing policy for more information.

Before starting a new article! - Notability is a concern that must be adhered to. See Wikipedia:Notability (music) for more information.
Need help starting a new article? See Wikipedia:Article wizard it will help you through the process of submitting a new article to Wikipedia.

I. Use references. This is an encyclopedia, so remember to include a ==References== section listing websites, newspapers, articles, books and other sources you used to write the article. New articles and statements added to existing articles may be deleted if unreferenced or referenced poorly. See Wikipedia:Verifiability, Wikipedia:Cite sources and Wikipedia:References for more information.
II. Use proper spelling and grammar. This is a very important aspect of an article. "We want to learn editors to write proper" There are helpful guidelines in regards to styles. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style (music) for more information.
III. Use footnotes. Take advantage of the footnote ability Wikipedia has, instead of including html links inside the context include them as footnotes. See Wikipedia:Footnotes on how to use them.
IV. Write a good lead. Be sure to write a lead that concisely summarizes the entire article into one or two paragraphs, which make sense to someone who may know nothing about the subjects in question. See Wikipedia:Lead section for more information.
V. Stay on topic. Many articles are criticized for length; sticking to the subject matter helps eliminate this. See Wikipedia:The perfect article for more information.
VI. Keep it simple. Remember that the average reader should be able to comprehend the erudition. Although you should use a broad vocabulary of regular, non-technical terms, do not provide such a quantity of locutions as to impel those who aspire to derive serviceable information from the article to consult a dictionary.
VII. Use images if possible. Images enhance articles greatly, but only use them when they are necessary, and ensure that their copyright status has been specified and we are allowed to use it on Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Images
