Article Title
The title of the article should be coherent with the theme of the article. Kindly use upper case for the first letters of the main words in the article title. For example , instead of writing "energy source as the article title, please write "Energy Source".
Article Structure
A good article has the following structure:
- Overview or an "Introduction" section
- main part (should be clustered into short Paragraphs)
- Conclusion
- Further Information
- References
- Categories

Integration Into the Wiki Structure
Links
Links are especially important for other users to get further information on the topic and it's a possibility to keep each article as short and precise as you can interlink between articles, instead of cramming it into one huge paragraph and repeating information that has already been documented somewhere else extensively.
Links also help to structure the wiki so that individual articles do not get lost. On energypedia we usually distinguish between two different types of links:
- Internal Link: The first option here is to link to another article or to link to a particular headline in another or the same article, within energypedia. If you want to link to a file it needs to be uploaded before.
- External Link: Using external links, you can link to external articles in the web.
Example
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) as many as 1.6 million people die each year as a result of it. This can be compared with one death every 20 seconds.
