WikiQueer:Trifecta

WikiQueer is an encyclopedia created by the community through collaboration, and these three basic characteristics suggest three basic guiding principles for editors. Other principles, policies, and guidelines can be viewed as more elaborate formulations of these three simple points.
 * Remain neutral: WikiQueer is an encyclopedia, and ought to just tell people about stuff, clearly, simply and honestly. Don't let your head get in the way of the project. Look at Neutral point of view (NPOV), Verifiability, Citing sources, No original research, Biographies of living persons and the Deletion policy to see how this idea plays out in various policies and guidelines.
 * Don't be inconsiderate: WikiQueer is a community, and editors ought to treat each other – and the encyclopedia itself – with a certain level of pleasant, polite respect. Yes, we're almost all anonymous; yes, things go wrong; yes, the system is crocked up sometimes, but don't be inconsiderate, even when annoyed. This is explained in our Civility policy, as well as in other essays like Keeping your cool, Assume good faith and No personal attacks. And remember unregistered editors are human too.
 * Ignore all rules: WikiQueer is collaborative, so collaborate! Rules are fine when they're helpful, but rules are not a substitute for working things out with other editors and getting things done.  See Consensus, Be Bold,  the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle, avoid instruction creep, the snowball clause, What WikiQueer is not, and similar.

This page is not a policy, guideline, or any other official sort of thing, but it is plain good common sense.
