This section will document the ''Big Idea'' behind the policies we use here. Although this can link to some of our policies, it would be better for this section to cover the "big idea" which drives our motivation to set policies of any sort. One commonly held idea is the KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) basis of setting policies. Policies only have to be effective, they need not be extensive. Too many policies typically discourage the wider participation which benefits a wiki like ours.

This page is dedicated for our wiki's overall plan. If a user were to ask "What's the big idea?" this page should help in pointing the way to a reasonable answer.

This page should not catalog all the answers, but should rather provide an organized list of links to pages which do so. The Big Idea we are covering is the wiki project itself, not the actual game we play.

Policy

This section will document the Big Idea behind the policies we use here. Although this can link to some of our policies, it would be better for this section to cover the "big idea" which drives our motivation to set policies of any sort. One commonly held idea is the KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) basis of setting policies. Policies only have to be effective, they need not be extensive. Too many policies typically discourage the wider participation which benefits a wiki like ours.

Procedure

This section will document the Big Idea behind the procedures we use on the wiki. As in the policy section, links to certain procedures can be provided. However, the idea behind how we structure our procedures would be more informative to the reader and more constructive to the development of our community culture.

Plan

This section will document the Big Idea behind how we have organized wiki content, and any plans we have to reorganize it in the future.

Where Things Belong

Here we will explain where we place our various types of content. For instance, content about the wiki is placed in the "Fallen Earth Wiki" namespace. Information relating to the game, Fallen Earth, can be found in the "Main" namespace, and user-based information is found in the "User" namespace.
