Contribution and Moderation Process Overview
ASDSO's Dam Safety Toolbox is written and maintained by a community of volunteers through open collaboration and a wiki-based editing system. Contributors are encouraged to continually expand and improve the content and resources available on the site. Suggested edits will not be viewable by other users until they have been reviewed and approved by moderators. Only ASDSO publications or non-copyrighted information (including images) should be uploaded to the website.
Moderators from ASDSO's Dam Design and Construction Committee moderate and maintain the website. Subject Matter Experts are responsible for reviewing all technical content prior to publication. Once technical content has been reviewed and approved for publication, Moderators are responsible for moderating edits within the MediaWiki environment in accordance with the Dam Safety Toolbox Formatting/Style Guide and the Dam Safety Toolbox Policies and Procedures Guide.
Getting Started as a Contributor
In order to contribute, users must register for an account and be logged in. Contributors can add content either by editing existing pages (click the Edit icon on any topic page) or creating new pages. Contributions are made using the markup language called "wikitext" which consists of the syntax and keywords used by the MediaWiki software to format a page. To facilitate the review process, contributors are encouraged to review and follow these guidance documents to the extent possible:
In adding quotations, images, or documents to the website, it is imperative that contributors comply with copyright laws in accordance with ASDSO's Copyright Guidelines. The Formatting/Style Guide also includes helpful wikitext templates for common page types including Topic Pages, Resource Pages, Training Pages and Example Pages. Contributors can also consult the MediaWiki User's Guide for more information on using the software.
Alternatively, contributors can submit edits or suggestions for improvement to the Dam Safety Toolbox Editor using this fillable PDF contribution form.
Volunteer as a Subject Matter Expert or Moderator
Subject matter experts for individual topics as well as moderators are needed to expand and maintain this important resource! If you are interested in helping improve the Dam Safety Toolbox, please contact the Dam Safety Toolbox Editor at [email protected].
