Vision – http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Vision Mission – http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Mission http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Values Our Values: Freedom An essential part of the Wikimedia Foundation's mission is encouraging the development of free-content educational resources that may be created, used, and reused by the entire human community. We believe that this mission requires thriving open formats and open standards on the web to allow the creation of content not subject to restrictions on creation, use, and reuse. At the creation level, we want to provide the editing community with freely-licensed tools for participation and collaboration. Our community should also have the freedom to fork thanks to freely available dumps . The community will in turn create a body of knowledge which can be distributed freely throughout the world, viewable or playable by free software tools. Accessibility and quality All the legal freedom to modify or distribute educational content is useless if users cannot get access to it. We try our best to give online access to high quality Wikimedia project content 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, as well as provide access to regularly updated, user-friendly, and free dumps of Wikimedia project content. We try, through partnerships if necessary, to ensure the widest distribution, through DVD's, books, PDF's, or other non-internet based means. To ensure world-wide, unrestricted, dissemination of knowledge, we do not enter into exclusive partnerships, with regards to access to our content or use of our trademarks. Independence As a non-profit, we mostly depend on gifts to operate (donations, grants, sponsorship, etc.). It is very important to us to ensure our organization stays free of influence in the way it operates. For this reason, we strictly follow a donation policy, reserve the right to refuse donations which could generate constraints, and try to multiply the diversity of revenue sources. Commitment to openness and diversity Though US-based, the organization is international in its nature. Our board of trustees, staff members, and volunteers are involved without discrimination based on their religion, political beliefs, sexual preferences, nationalities, etc... Not only do we accept diversity, but we actually look forward to it. Transparency We must communicate Wikimedia Foundation information in a transparent, thorough and timely manner, to our communities and more generally, to the public. Our community is our biggest asset We are a community-based organization. We must operate with a mix of staff members, and of volunteers, working together to achieve our mission. We support community-led collaborative projects, and must respect the work and the ideas of our community. We must listen and take into account our communities in any decisions taken to achieve our mission.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Simplified_ruleset Core principles While theoretically, anything can be changed, the community up to this point has been built on certain principles. Much thought has been put into them, and they are unlikely to change in the future. They've worked for us so far, so give them a fair shake before attempting radical reform or leaving the project. Five pillars : The foundations of the Wikipedia community are summarized in 5 simple ideas: Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia; it has a neutral point of view; it is free content that anyone can edit and distribute; all Wikipedians should interact in a respectful and civil manner; and Wikipedia does not have firm rules. Founding principles : The Wikimedia Foundation , the global organization which oversees Wikipedia and other projects like it, is based on important common ideas as well: Neutrality is mandatory; anyone can edit (most) articles without registration; we make decisions through the &quot;wiki process&quot; of discussion; we want to work in a welcoming and collaborative environment; our content is freely licensed; and we leave room for particularly difficult problems to be resolved by an authority. On English Wikipedia Arbitration Committee has power to make certain binding, final decisions. Copyright : Wikipedia uses opensource licensing under Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License and the GNU Free Documentation License . Content on Wikipedia can be used and re-used freely, as long as attribution is given; it can even be modified and used for profit, as long as all future re-users can do the same. Everything editors contribute must be compatible with Wikipedia's licenses and cannot violate others' copyrights, except under very particular circumstances . Ignore all rules (IAR) : Rules on Wikipedia are not fixed in stone. The spirit of the rule trumps the letter of the rule . The common purpose of building an encyclopedia trumps both. This means that any rule can be broken for a very good reason, if it ultimately helps to improve the encyclopedia. It doesn't mean that anything can be done just by claiming IAR, or that discussion is not necessary to explain one's decision. Writing high-quality articles Main page: Wikipedia:The perfect article Neutral point of view : Write from a neutral point of view. Make a fair representation of the world as reliable sources describe it. All articles should be balanced to convey a fair and proportional impression of the various points of view on a subject. Some views may get more attention than others, depending on the attention they receive in reliable sources. Wikipedia has no &quot;opinion&quot; of its own; it just accurately summarizes reliable sources. Verifiability : Articles should contain only material that has been published by reliable sources . Even if something is true our standards require it be published in a reliable source before it can be included. Editors should cite reliable sources for any material that is challenged or likely to be, otherwise it may be removed by any editor. The obligation to provide a reliable source is on whoever wants to include material. No original research : Articles may not contain previously unpublished arguments, concepts, data, or theories, nor any new analysis or synthesis of published arguments, concepts, data, or theories that serves to advance a position. In other words, you can't make a point that hasn't already been directly made somewhere else in a reliable source. Be bold in updating pages! Go ahead, it's a wiki ! No mistake can break Wikipedia, because any edit can be undone. Encourage others, including those who disagree with you, to likewise be bold! If you find yourself disagreeing with someone's boldness or they with yours, discuss it on the talk page. Getting along with other editors Be civil to other users at all times. If you have a criticism, comment about content and specific edits. Don't make negative remarks about other editors as people. Assume good faith : Try to consider the person on the other end of the discussion as a thinking, rational being who is trying to positively contribute to Wikipedia. Even if you're convinced that they're an [insert insult of your choice], still pretend that they're acting in good faith. Ninety percent of the time you'll find that they actually are acting in good faith (and the other ten percent of the time a negative attitude won't help anyway). Be gracious. Be liberal in what you accept, be conservative in what you do . Try to accommodate other people's quirks as best you can, while trying to be as polite and straightforward as possible. Discuss contentious changes on the talk page : Mutual respect is the guiding behavioral principle of Wikipedia. Although everyone knows that their contributions may be edited by others, it is easier to accept changes when you understand the reasons for them. Discussing changes on the article's talk page before you make them can help reach consensus even faster, especially on controversial subjects. We have all the time in the world , so always make an effort to explain changes to other editors, and feel free to ask them to do the same. Undo others' edits with care : Undoing someone's work is a powerful tool, hence the three-revert rule that an editor should never undo the same content more than three times in twenty-four hours (ideally, even less). Try not to revert changes which are not obvious vandalism. If you really can't stand something, revert once , with an edit summary like &quot;I disagree, I'll explain why on Talk&quot;, and immediately take it to the accompanying talk page to discuss . If someone reverts your edits, do not just add them back without attempting discussion. Use clear edit summaries: straightforward, transparent explanations are greatly appreciated. Other editors need to understand your thinking, and edit summaries also help you understand what you did after a leave of absence or a complex series of changes. Please state what you changed and why . If the explanation is too long, use the Talk page to add details. Since anyone can edit articles, even without registering, there are a lot of changes to watch; good edit summaries simplify things for everyone. Try to understand why your article or edit was deleted : Many topics do not meet our inclusion guidelines . Some of the same bad article ideas show up and get deleted frequently in articles for deletion and speedy deletion discussions. New editors may benefit from the Articles for creation helper. Other contributions are often just not neutral or just not well-sourced. In general, finding better, more reliable sources is almost always the best response. Sign your posts : Sign on talk pages (using ~~~~, which gets replaced by your username and timestamp when you hit &quot;save page&quot;), but don't sign in mainspace articles. Preview your changes : Repeatedly saving small edits clutters the page's history , which makes it difficult for some editors to follow along with changes. Small changes plus no edit summaries is every worse. Use the show preview button rather than saving many times. Ask for help : The Wikipedia community has a wealth of knowledge and you are almost surely not the first person to have a particular question, concern, idea or disagreement. You can ask anyone for help, anywhere and anytime, but a good place to start is the Help Desk which offers quick responses on Wikipedia or through live chat .
The fundamental principles by which Wikipedia operates are summarized in the form of five &quot;pillars&quot; : Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia . Wikipedia is not a soapbox, an advertising platform, a vanity press, an experiment in anarchy or democracy, an indiscriminate collection of information, or a web directory. Wikipedia has a neutral point of view. We strive for articles that advocate no single point of view. Sometimes this requires representing multiple points of view, presenting each point of view accurately and in context, and not presenting any point of view as &quot;the truth&quot; or &quot;the best view&quot;. Wikipedia is free content that anyone can edit and distribute. Respect copyright laws, and do not plagiarize your sources Wikipedians should interact in a respectful and civil manner. Respect and be polite to your fellow Wikipedians, even when you disagree. Wikipedia does not have firm rules. Rules on Wikipedia are not carved in stone, and the spirit of the rule trumps the letter of the rule. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Five_pillars

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_in_brief Wikipedia aims to be a neutral compilation of verifiable, established facts. This means: Neutral Wikipedia does not judge or advocate specific views or opinions, or make determinations on &quot;correctness&quot;. Differing views must be presented objectively , without bias or undue weight . Compilation Wikipedia is an encyclopedia , consisting of articles written in a particular style . There is a process which advances articles to our goal . Verifiable Information must be realistically verifiable by others. This is generally done by citing from reliable sources . Established Original ideas, interpretations, or research cannot be verified, and thus are inappropriate for Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a primary source ; it strives to be a tertiary source . Facts Wikipedia is about facts , not opinions . Articles may state which viewpoints exist, and who holds them (&quot;facts about opinions&quot;), but does not itself advocate viewpoints .
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:User_Creed I believe in knowledge . I believe that making knowledge available to others is a good thing. I believe that while inaccuracy and deception may be morally justified on occasions, they are inherently evil . I believe that dispelling ignorance is in general a good thing. I believe in cooperation and teamwork . I hope and believe that by working together, Wikipedians will achieve results better than any of us could produce on our own. I believe in the Internet . I believe that it offers opportunities for human advancement that outweigh its dangers . I believe in wikis . They are fun . I'll try not to let anyone else spoil my fun; if they don't seem to want to have fun too, that's their choice. And I'll try very hard not to spoil anyone else's fun (even if they seem not to care about mine). I believe in improving articles . I believe that no article is perfect , however much I may have worked on it, and will give others the chance to make their own contributions . I believe in the maintenance of a neutral point of view when editing. I accept that it's not negotiable and I think it can work. I will try to put whatever understanding I do have into practice whenever I edit an article. I believe in consensus . I may not know what it means, but I'll try as hard as I can to make it work anyway. I'm wrong sometimes, otherwise I wouldn't be human, and right sometimes too, otherwise I wouldn't be here. I believe in being polite and considerate to others. I recognise that if I can't do that, Wikipedia doesn't want me. I believe in forgiveness , which is just as well because I sometimes wish I hadn't pressed &quot;save&quot; myself. I believe in welcoming newbies and anonymous editors . I will always remember the days when I was in their shoes. I believe in discussion . I will try to initiate and participate in discussions rather than making an article into a battleground , and in that I am able I will try to encourage others to do the same. I believe (sometimes) in Wikipedia policies and guidelines and I particularly expect administrators (etc) to follow them when exercising their sysop (etc) powers. But I also try to bear in mind what the rules are there for, and notice that whenever we have a consensus that the rules are wrong, we seem to go with the consensus and tidy up the rules later. I believe in copyleft . I will respect the GFDL , CC-BY-SA and their successors. I believe in the project. Wikipedia won't solve all of the world's problems, but I believe it can help to solve some of them, however slightly. Whenever I edit I will focus on the goal of writing an encyclopedia, and use Wikipedia's resources only to advance that goal. Wikipedia may not be perfect, but I believe in Wikipedia , and that's why I'm here.
