'''Please follow our [[social contract]] around posting documents, and use good [[categories]] and interlinking to make your document easy to find.'''
==Social Contract==
Uploading and providing analysis of documents should be consistent with our social contract.  Don't violate copyright.  Provide impersonal, evidence-driven analysis.  Use concise language.
==Creating a document page for an off-wiki document==
To create a document page, just type in a standard document name in the search window, and press [Go].  This will give you the option of creating the page.  Please include the following elements in a document page:
*Standard name
*'''Document Template Code''' - Don't forget to put the code {{document}} at the top of text.
*'''Categories''' - Pick some appropriate categories and add them to the top of text (following instructions).
*'''Standard Bibliographic Citation''' - Please provide a text string that will let someone cut and paste a standard bibliographic citation.
*'''Link to Document''' - If the document has a stable link location, than please provide it.  Consider a google scholar search if you have doubts about the stability of the document link.
*'''Google Scholar Search''' - If the document is under copyright, you CAN insert a google scholar link, like so: <nowiki>[http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=Simenstad+Cordell+2000+salmonid+habitat+assessment&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C48 Google Scholar Search]</nowiki>
We just cut the search result address added some brackets and produced the following results: [http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=Simenstad+Cordell+2000+salmonid+habitat+assessment&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C48 Google Scholar Search]
*'''Analysis''' - Why not tell us why you think the document is important, strong or weak.  Don't forget to sign with three tildas like so: <nowiki>'''~~~'''</nowiki>.  This will create an author stamp with a link back to your user page.  Anyone cane provide analysis.
If you don't have time, at least do steps 1 and 2 and then flag it with the <nowiki>[[category:raw]]</nowiki> indicating some sloppy work that needs fixing.
==Uploading file to create an on-wiki document page==
The second way to create a document page is to actually upload a document to the wiki.  This is a good choice if there is not currently a stable web location for the document, or you just want to contribute to our archive. 
 
Follow the [[special:upload|Upload a Document]] link found on any document page and follow instructions.
 
==Creating a redirect page for easy citation==
If you create a on-wiki document page it will have a complicated page name like '''''File:Simenstad & Cordell 2000 criteria for restoring salmonid habitat'''''. To make it easy to cite, you can create a [[redirect]] page, called '''''Simenstad & Cordell 2000''''', which points to the full document page.  In this way you can cite a document page by just typing the file name into your text like this:
<nowiki>Salmon like to eat invertebrates ([[Simenstad & Cordell 2000]])</nowiki>
Which will produce the following text: Salmon like to eat invertebrates ([[Simenstad & Cordell 2000]]).  A click on the link takes you to the full document page using the redirect.  [[Redirect|Learn how to create a redirect page]].

==Creating a document page==
There are two ways to create a document page, depending on whether the document is a uploaded file (i.e. on-wiki), or whether you are referecing a document that is off-wiki.
'''To load a document onto the wiki:'''
#'''Copy''' the template below. 
#'''Click''' on the [[Special:upload|Upload File]] link. 
#'''Name''' the file using a standard citation format such as "Author et al 20##". 
#'''Paste''' the template into the summary box, and use the resulting wiki page (which will be named ''File:Author_et_al_20##'') as you document page.
#'''Assign''' [[categories]] that makes sense for your document.  Is it associated with a particular [[site]] or [[place]] or [[topic]]?
#'''Create''' a redirect page by 1) typing your new title, ''Author et al 20##'' into the search box, 2) select the 'create page' link, 3) type ''<nowiki>#REDIRECT[[File:Author et al 20##]]</nowiki>'' into the blank page, and save.  This creates a page that will direct a <nowiki>[[Author et al 20##]]</nowiki> link to your uploaded file.
'''Off-wiki''' - Use a regular document wiki page named ''Author et al 20##'' to describe the document, using the template below and including a link to an appropriate source for the document (which could include a google scholor search for the document title.)
==Standard Document Template==
''For each document page adapt the following template depending if your document is on- or off-wiki''
::<nowiki> {{document}} </nowiki>
::<nowiki>'''Citation'''</nowiki>
::<nowiki>==Links to Document==</nowiki>
::<nowiki>*'''[[Link]]''' - text</nowiki>
::<nowiki>==Abstract (Closed to Editing)==</nowiki>
::<nowiki>Abstract written by author</nowiki>
::<nowiki>==Analysis==</nowiki>
::<nowiki>Description of importance of document in relation to other efforts including links to any other documents found in this wiki</nowiki>

If you don't have time, at least do steps 1 and 2 and then flag it with the [[category:raw]] indicating some sloppy work that needs fixing.

Uploading file to create an on-wiki document page

The second way to create a document page is to actually upload a document to the wiki. This is a good choice if there is not currently a stable web location for the document, or you just want to contribute to our archive.

Follow the Upload a Document link found on any document page and follow instructions.

Creating a redirect page for easy citation

If you create a on-wiki document page it will have a complicated page name like File:Simenstad & Cordell 2000 criteria for restoring salmonid habitat. To make it easy to cite, you can create a redirect page, called Simenstad & Cordell 2000, which points to the full document page. In this way you can cite a document page by just typing the file name into your text like this: 

Salmon like to eat invertebrates ([[Simenstad & Cordell 2000]])

Which will produce the following text: Salmon like to eat invertebrates (Simenstad & Cordell 2000). A click on the link takes you to the full document page using the redirect. Learn how to create a redirect page.
