==Directory Space==

'''''Directory Space''''' is a protected [[Centiare:About|Centiare]] custom namespace that supports advocate point of view ([[APOV]]) for "[[Centiare:user-owned|user-owned]]" pages.

Centiare uses an ''[[Entity|entity]]'' (person [legal organization or individual], place, or thing) concept to determine placement. The basic rule-of-thumb to determine whether an article should be listed under the '''''Directory Space''''' or be placed within '''''Main Space''''' is: ''"Would the entity have legal standing in a court of law"?''

If the answer is '''''yes''''' as to whether an entity could bring a cause of action as a plaintiff, or respond to a complaint as a defendant, then it should be listed under the '''''Directory Space'''''. Examples:

* Commercial Enterprise - [[Directory:IBM|International Business Machines]]
* Non-Profit Organization - [[Directory:Wikimedia Foundation|Wikimedia Foundation]]
* Government/Agency - [[Directory:Huntington Beach, California|City of Huntington Beach]]
* Person (Living/Deceased) - [[Directory:Carl Sagan|Estate of Carl Sagan]]
* Property - [[Directory:The Walt Disney Company/Mickey Mouse|Disney/Mickey Mouse]]

If the answer is '''''no''''', then it should be placed within '''''Main Space''''' and follow traditional neutral point of view ([[NPOV]]) rules of conduct. Examples:

* [[Central Index Key]]
* [[North America Industry Classification System]]
* [[Sir Isaac Newton]]
* [[Wealth of Nations]]

==Discussion==

'''Note''' Discussions regarding Directory listing entries should take place in the respective [[Centiare:Discussion Namespace|discussion namespace]]s. For example, corporate governance issues respective to publicly held companies; mutual fund performance; intellectual property merits; etc.
