The most important things that this guide describes is to focus on maintaining a neutral tone throughout the article, to heavily plan out the article before starting to write, and to be accurate and have good sources. The guide emphasizes to keep accuracy and a neutral tone because millions of people use Wikipedia every day and it is important that they get concise and factual information. It is also important to closely check the sources that you are using to get content to edit Wikipedia because not all sources are reliable. When good sources are available, it is important not to plagiarize them. The guide also mentions that the person that you are writing about should be notable. Finally, the guide emphasizes not to procrastinate and to outline everything about the article paying close attention to structure so that once you begin to write the article can make sense. That also makes it easier for other Wikipedia users to revise and make changes to the article as well.
