'''MyWikiBiz''' is an online [[directory]] and, ''as a means to that end'', an online community of people interested in pursuing personal success and achievement in a spirit of both competition and cooperation. While [[MyWikiBiz:Main Space|Main Space]] articles follow the same basic policies of [[NPOV|Wikipedia]], within the '''Directory''' and '''User''' name space, there are certain things MyWikiBiz ''is and is not''.

# '''Dictionary definitions.''' Because MyWikiBiz can be a dictionary, please feel free to create an entry merely to define a term. An article should usually ''begin with'' a good [[definition]]; if you come across an article that is merely a definition and nothing more, see if there is more information you could add that would be appropriate for a directory.

# '''Lists of such definitions.''' There will be [[MyWikiBiz:Disambiguation| disambiguation pages]] consisting of pointers to other pages; these are used to clarify differing meanings of a word.

# A '''usage guide''' or '''slang and idiom guide.''' MyWikiBiz can be in the business of saying how words, [[idioms]], etc. should be used. We can teach people how to talk like a [[Cockney]] chimney-sweep, or a British gent. However, it may be important in the context of an article to describe just how a word is used to distinguish among similar, easily confused ideas, as in [[nation]] or [[freedom]]. In some special cases, an article about an essential piece of [[slang]] may be appropriate.

MyWikiBiz can be a place to publish [[MyWikiBiz:Original research|your own thoughts and analyses]] or to publish new information not heretofore published. Please feel free to use MyWikiBiz for any of the following:

MyWikiBiz can be a place to publish [[Centiare:Original research|your own thoughts and analyses]] or to publish new information not heretofore published. Please feel free to use MyWikiBiz for any of the following:

# '''Primary (original) research''' such as proposing theories and solutions, original ideas, defining terms, coining new words, etc. If you have done primary research on a topic or have published your results in other venues such as [[peer-reviewed]] journals, other printed forms, or respected online sites, use MyWikiBiz to report about your work either before or after it becomes part of accepted knowledge. Of course, not all information added to MyWikiBiz has to be from peer-reviewed journals.  You could include information from a personal survey that you conducted just this morning at the [[convenience store]].  But, keep in mind that other readers will take more seriously information that is reliable and verifiable. For example, [[MyWikiBiz:Cite sources|citing]] book, print, or reliable web resources demonstrates that the material is [[MyWikiBiz:Verifiability|verifiable]] and is not merely the editor's [[APOV|opinion]].

# '''Original inventions.''' If you invent the word ''[[flauxbam]]'' or a new type of dance move, go ahead and describe it or portray it on your User page or appropriate Directory space.  It's not really Main space article material until multiple secondary sources have reported on it, though.

# '''Personal essays''' or '''Blogs''' that state your particular opinions about a topic. MyWikiBiz is supposed to compile human knowledge. It can be a vehicle to help personal opinions become part of human knowledge. In the situation where the opinions of a single individual are important enough to discuss, why shouldn't you write about them? Personal essays on topics relating to MyWikiBiz are welcome in your User namespace, or on the appropriate ''Discussion'' pages that relate to the MyWikiBiz policy.

# '''Opinions on [[Current events]]''' is a particular case of the previous item. Current affairs may stir passions and tempt people to "climb [[soapbox]]es" (i.e., passionately advocate their pet point of view). MyWikiBiz Directory or User space is an excellent medium for this. Main space articles really should be balanced, so as to put Main space entries for current affairs in a reasonable perspective. Furthermore, MyWikiBiz authors should strive to write Main space articles that will not quickly become obsolete; but should feel free to write something in Directory or User space that you remove on a whim tomorrow.

You can chat with folks about MyWikiBiz-related topics on their User or Directory talk pages, and you can try to resolve problems with Main space articles on the relevant [[MyWikiBiz:Talk page|talk pages]], but please do not take discussion into articles themselves.

# '''News reports.''' MyWikiBiz can even offer firsthand news reports on breaking stories. MyWikiBiz is not a [[primary source]], but it can come darn close to being one. MyWikiBiz will have many ''encyclopedia articles'' on topics of historical significance that are currently in the news, and they can be significantly more up-to-date than other reference sources, since we can incorporate new developments and facts as they are made known.

There is nothing wrong with adding useful content-relevant links to an article; however, excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of MyWikiBiz.  There is Google or DMOZ for those just looking for relevant links.  See [[MyWikiBiz:External links]] for some tips and guidelines.

Complete copies of primary sources may even be uploaded to MyWikiBiz Directory spaces, as long as there is no copyright being violated by the uploading user. There's nothing wrong with using [[public domain resources]] such as [[1911 Encyclopædia Britannica]] to add content to an article.

Copyrighted song lyrics are not allowed to be printed in whole in any MyWikiBiz space, unless you are the lyricist who wrote (or owns the copyright to) the song.

# '''Personal web pages.''' [[MyWikiBiz:users|Users]] have their own [[MyWikiBiz:User page|user pages]], which may be used to present information relevant to working on the directory, or to promote one's self or business (although a business will probably be better served in Directory, not User, space). If you are looking to make a personal webpage or [[blog]]-like diary, please get started on your User page and [[MyWikiBiz:User subpages|subpages]]. The focus of User pages can quite effectively be [[social networking]], or for providing a foundation for friendly [[collaboration]] on MyWikiBiz.

# '''[[File storage]] areas.''' Please upload not only files that are used (or will be used) in Main space articles or project pages, but also files that you'd like to show off in your User or Directory space. Just be mindful that '''you''' are responsible for appropriate handling of copyrighted material, not MyWikiBiz.

#'''Dating services.''' MyWikiBiz can be an appropriate place to advertise your desire for  relationships or sex. Just be mindful that your activity in MyWikiBiz is traced back to a non-"throwaway" e-mail address.  Don't do anything that you'll regret later in this very public forum.  And, don't violate any United States laws, as MyWikiBiz will fully cooperate with rightful legal authorities investigating suspected illegal activity (such as sex with animals, exploitation of minors, etc.).  User pages which move beyond broad expressions of sexual preference are acceptable, but could be embarrassing to you later.

While MyWikiBiz has descriptions of people, places, and things, MyWikiBiz articles can also include instructions, advice, or "how-to" details that do not infringe on MyWikiBiz's [[MyWikiBiz:Legal disclaimer|legal disclaimer]] or [[MyWikiBiz:Medical disclaimer|medical disclaimer]]. This might include tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes.

The purpose of MyWikiBiz can be not only the presentation of facts, but also to teach a subject matter. It is entirely appropriate for a teacher to create or edit articles with his or her students in mind, which would read as a textbook, with leading questions and step-by-step problem solutions as examples.  If it's in the professor's User space, it's owned by him or her, and nobody else can alter it.  If it's in the article Main space, however, it will be subject to MyWikiBiz community editing, especially if it's a popular general topic like [[human sexuality]] or a topic within [[military history]].

MyWikiBiz is not a paper directory that has to be printed out for every user. It's just digital bits on a web server hard drive. This means that there is no practical limit to the number of entities and/or topics MyWikiBiz can cover other than the few limitations expressed above.

There is a ''feasible limit'' for individual article sizes that depends on page download size for our [[dial-up access|dial-up]] readers and readability considerations for everybody (see [[MyWikiBiz:Article size]]). After a point, splitting an article into separate articles and leaving adequate summaries is a natural part of growth for a topic (see [[MyWikiBiz:Summary style]]). Some topics are covered by print directories only in short, static articles, and since MyWikiBiz requires no paper we can give more thorough treatments, include many more relevant links, be more timely, etc.
