Help:Directions for contributors

Teachers
 Most appropriate articles are such that: In all of these cases the WikiLectures facilitate your work!
 * replace current "handouts" or other additions to the educational process;
 * enhance current educational materials by providing up-to-date and important information that is missing or not readily available;
 * replace frequently updated textbooks or study materials

Things to avoid: In the above-mentioned cases, the traditional ways of text preparation may be an option with subsequent conversion to .pdf file and insertion into educational portal or Adobe Connect where you can set up access privileges. You can also upload only a piece of your work and than use external link from WikiLectures.
 * entering materials that are not necessary for undergraduate education;
 * entering short entries - dictionary definitions – these should be entered into the WikiLectures Dictionary or Wiktionary and then linked back here;
 * entering too extensive and detailed information;
 * entering highly original work or materials that require more extensive level of copyrights;
 * entering materials that quote other works and their citation could be considered as a copyright violation;
 * entering articles that contain pictures or other parts that should not be available to general public;

Students
Appropriate articles are such that:
 * complement study materials in cases when the available study materials are too detailed or incomprehensible;
 * were created as essays assigned by the teacher;
 * deal with exam questions.

Avoid articles that:
 * are not objective, up-to-date and with neutral point of view;
 * use copyrighted material without permission or are in conflict with author law;
 * copy accessible study materials without – selecting important information (main points) or summarizing more different sources;
 * are not related with educational process such as – autobiographical pages (there are some exception in case of user pages).
