My Top Wikipedia Principles & Pet Peeves
- Be civil.
- Don't be a dick.
- Be strict about BLP.
- Do not remove red links just for aesthetic reasons.
- Do not rollback edits unless it is obvious vandalism. Undo is not only for non-admins and users without rollback rights.
- Think extra hard about blocking an established editor, especially if it's for violation of 3RR.
- Be careful to not revert edits to a previous version of vandalism.
- Always, always, always use an edit summary.
- The opposite of NPOV should not be called POV. Everything has a POINT OF VIEW! The question is - is it NEUTRAL or BIASED? See POV usage.
- Not all external links belong. See WP:ELNO, WP:EL & WP:NOTLINK
