Submission Guidelines

Submission Guidelines

When adding a page please follow these guidelines (subject to improving over time):


 * Ensure that your page’s title best matches the intended place
 * Ensure that the page is internally linked to the appropriate location on the ‘Guide’ page, ie under the proper country and region alphabetically
 * Follow this layout for sections and refer to Ottawa River as a source:

sub(s)

 * History is to include the history of the site and to an extent, where relevant, the history of the greater area. Include this information in a chronological form, beginning with the earliest use to the most recent
 * Folklore, Traditions and Customs should also follow, wherever possible, chronologically. These should not be overly lengthy and always properly cited as HG2OA is a source of authenticated information. If you wish to refer the readership to further information or pages relevant add a bullet and indicate where they may find this information either via description of the work, link or page of the wiki
 * Experiences are subjective and are to be concise. They are for informative purposes as to what you have experienced while offering at that site and why you do it. Multiple users may post their experiences using their first name and final initial as the heading. Modifying or vandalising such an entry will cause the offender to be blocked from editing content.
 * Tips are to inform readers of specifics of the site, ie state of protection, where exactly to leave offerings if applicable due to ethics or the general safety of the location. Note it is incumbent upon the reader to inform themselves further on these matters and not upon the poster to inform others of all possible concerns
 * Add original pictures and video whenever possible
