The [[Clicklaw Wikibooks Contributor Guide]] is designed to get editors and contributors started. If you are not a Clicklaw ''Wikibooks'' contributor, but are a ''Clicklaw'' contributor for the main [http://www.clicklaw.bc.ca Clicklaw website] and need support, please see the [[Clicklaw Website Contributor Guide]].
The [[Clicklaw Wikibooks Contributor Guide]] will get editors and contributors started. If you are not a ''Wikibooks'' editor or contributor, but handle your organization's content on the main ''Clicklaw'' main [http://www.clicklaw.bc.ca Clicklaw website], see the [[Clicklaw Website Contributor Guide]].


==Getting started==
==Getting started==
===Accounts and contributor bio pages===
====Account setup====
Unless your organization chooses to use a single organization-wide account for making edits, each contributor will receive a username set a password to log in to Clicklaw Wikibooks. Usernames by default are the editor's first and last name, capitalized accordingly and separated by a space, e.g. "Nate Russell". Honorifics, e.g. "Judge" or "QC", are not included in the username. If you are an editor but have not yet received an email invitation with your account, contact [http://mailto:wikisupport@clicklaw.bc.ca wikisupport@clicklaw.bc.ca]. Editors set their own passwords and can change their email address using the "Preferences" tab.
====Contributor bio pages====
Editors and contributors with usernames receive a bio page that links to the pages and Clicklaw Wikibook titles they work on. See [[:Category:Contributor Bio |bio page examples]]. The bio page will include your name, brief professional biography, link to firm website, profile picture (optional) and contact information (optional). To set up the bio page, we require:
* 100-250 word bio
* website URL, email, and social media accounts (optional)
* profile photo portrait at least 150 px wide (optional)
Those who do not supply a photo will have a generic graphic displayed.
===Authors, editors and reviewers===
===Authors, editors and reviewers===
Clicklaw Wikibooks houses content for a number of organizations with publications. Each publication, or wikibook title, may have its own culture and arrangement with people tasked with updating it. An partner organization's work will be carried out by contributors, and these people might be staff of that organization with no wiki skills, freelance contractors who've done wiki work before, or volunteer lawyers, judges, advocates, etc. with a wide range of ability. Some wikibooks, such as those produced by [[Peoples Law School]], are administered by a small team of editors only, while other wikibooks, such as ''[[JP Boyd on Family Law]]'', involve [[:Category:JP Boyd on Family Law Contributors|numerous collaborators]] all of who are volunteers.
