Wiki-signature

articles

When WE speak in one voice there need be no signiture.

Personal statements, or quotes of individuals are welcome in WikiWorld articles. What WE believe is emerging and starts with our individuals. WE are not impersonal. These personal statements and quotes are short. They function as illustrations. They are signed at the end. They are not dated, unless the date is relevant due to its antiquity.

A personal, signed statement on an article-page can be that start of a discussion.

If there is a signed statement that you believe represents the ALL you may remove that signiture. No member of our community is claiming personal authorship on particular statements. Article-pages give voice to our collective.

If you disagree with the relevance of a signed statement, you may move that statement to the talk-page that belongs to the article-page. You should not remove it simply because you hold an opposing view. You can enter an alternative view, or move it to a talk page and explain there why you think it is inapropriate. That is the start of a discussion to explore our opinion.

talk pages

On Talk pages comments should be signed and dated on top using ~~~~ which this mediawiki expands to "JimScarver 10:35, 30 July 2006 (EDT)"
