Category:Articles containing how-to sections
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This category is used for administration of the Wikipedia project, and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages which are not articles, or lists articles by status, rather than content. |
This category contains articles tagged with {{howto}} that contain how-to sections which may need to be edited to comply to the official policy Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook, or textbook point 1, quoted here:
- Instruction manuals. While Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places, and things, Wikipedia articles should not include instructions, advice (legal, medical, or otherwise) or suggestions, or contain "how-to"s. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes. Note the how-to restriction does not apply to the Wikipedia: namespace, where "how-to"s relevant to editing Wikipedia itself are appropriate, such as Wikipedia:How to draw a diagram with Dia. If you're interested in a how-to style manual, you may want to look at our sister project Wikibooks.

[edit] Editing help needed
There is currently no consensus as to how the how-to articles should be edited. To-do lists may be replaced with great prose, or more simply, introduced in a way that reduces their how-to nature.
Please discuss the issue on the talk pages, so that good guidelines for editing can be established.
