    • Office Page Guidelines: Give a list of who held the office and a narrative history. Expect this to be edited. They should all have the text [[category:officer]] to make it work right.
    • User Page Ideas: Give positions you've held, accomplishments you're proud of, awards you've won, contact information, links to personal websites, committees you were on, and so on. Your homepage should contain the text [[Category:Brother Homepages]], otherwise, it won't show up on the Brother Homepages list. Possibly the best way to make one is to click the edit button on a homepage you like, copy the text, and paste it onto your homepage.
      • In order to make your own brother webpage, you have to be a registered user on the site. Just create a username or whatever. Then you click on your user name (it should be in red at the top of every page.) This automatically takes you to your homepage, and you can edit away!
      • You can also put pictures of yourself on your homepage. See the Wikipedia picture tutorial for a tutorial.
    • Name guidelines: When writing history or any long-lived document, always include the person's chapter, roll number, and class. If you know this person has a page on the wiki (check the user list), link his name to it: Scott Williams DS 70-Δ like this: [[User:ScottWilliams|Scott Williams]] [[Delta Sigma Rollbook#70|DS 70-&Delta;]]. You can look at the Delta Sigma Rollbook page to find classes and roll numbers.
    • The help page has a list of all the ways you can format text.
    • Wikipedia:How To Edit a Page,
    • The Sandbox is a place where you can safely make a mess
