Documentation for Editors
This section contains information and guidance for wiki editors.
Help Wanted
This wiki is a semi-private wiki which only allows approved editors to make changes. If you would like to become a wiki editor, please contact us at the AmigaOS Web Site. Everyone has their own areas of expertise. Do not be shy about helping out even if you believe your contribution would be minor.
Written Permission
Material for this wiki may come from various sources such as the AmigaOS development team or third party sources. It is always important that written permission is obtained from the author(s) before material is used.
It is equally important that written permission be obtained to modify all submitted material on this wiki. AmigaOS will continue to evolve and thus so will any of the material on the wiki.
AmigaOS Naming
In the past, version 4.x of the Amiga operating system has been known by many names including OS4, AmigaOS4, etc. For consistency, editors should always label the OS as "AmigaOS" only. Everything on this wiki is assumed to apply to version 4.x of AmigaOS or higher. When it is important to distinguish between versions of the operating system, add an explicit version number or range like so: "AmigaOS 3.1" or "AmigaOS 4.x". Note there is a space after the "AmigaOS" label in all cases.
Information Prior to AmigaOS 4.0
The focus of this wiki is AmigaOS 4.0 and higher. Material which exclusively pertains to prior versions of the AmigaOS should be removed. For example, there exists text which describe the 3D look of buttons, etc. as "new" which is clearly no longer the case. Such sections should be reworded or even removed entirely because in 4.0 the 3D look is assumed to be present.
References to AmigaOS Clones
This wiki is intended to cover the official AmigaOS only. Any references to clone systems should be removed. However, sometimes a clone system may have a well established defacto standard (e.g. TD64) which is also supported by AmigaOS. In those cases, it may make sense to describe the defacto standard in terms of a clone system.
