Guidelines for editing

• Images must not be from copyrighted sources and must be suitable for a wide audience (age 11 to 100). Where possible, use thumbnails on content pages.

• Please ensure you have something useful to write before creating or editing a page on the site. That way it saves others from spending time re-editing these pages. We don't expect everyone to write a 10,000 word essay when creating a page, so don't worry if it's a bit sparse to start with. However, something more substantial than "Person A is orange" / "Person B is fit" will ensure the page is still there when you go back to add to it!

• All articles must not be offensive to an individual, or group of individuals at BRGS. Keep it polite and light hearted! Poking fun at people is great, but know where to draw the line. Anyone posting derogatory, offensive or blatantly insulting comments will be banned for one day, as a fair warning. If a quote involves a swear-word, use asterisks! Repeated offenders will be hit with a more extensive ban. The level of bans are outlined here.

• Spelling and grammar should be checked before posting - it looks much more professional that way! If you have Firefox 2.0 , then any grammatical mistakes are now underlined in red when you are editing, please take the time to go back and alter them! Please take the time to write out your comments in full English - that is, NOT "txt spk". Pages which consist entirely of this nonsense are deleted immediately, so you're just wasting your time!

• Quotes are regarded liberally, so exact word-for-word isn't needed, but they need to have actually said it! Stories should be in their own sections.

• When creating new pages, please Capitalise the first letter of each word. If everyone does this; then we avoid duplicate pages which only have capitals different!

Basically, please keep this site clean, useful, and enjoy using it! We hope it continues to grow, but it will only do this if people are willing to put their time into creating an informative, concise, and above all funny database. Thank you for your support!

Extended Information

• If you want to link to a page, please make sure the link is spelled correctly, with the correct capitals and punctuation. The first letter is not case sensitive, but the rest is, e.g. "technology" is the same as "Technology", but "Sports Hall" and "Sports hall" are different.

• Avoid external links to internal pages. i.e. use [[double square brackets]]

• All your changes appear in Recent Changes for easy editing.

• Please correct any spelling or grammar problems you come across if you have time.
