TheNexusProject/Index
Index
Being an attempt to centrally organize the NexusProject.
There are three over-lists: one that goes by type, one that goes by author name, and one that goes by singular items. All items go on all three over-lists. Items By Type is divided into sublists, and each sublist goes in alphabetical order; Items by Author is a list of alphabetically-ordered author names with entries below each name; and Items By Name is one big list that also goes in alphabetical order. (If a name begins with "The", then stick it under the right spot for the next word in the name -- for example,The Nexus Scuttlebutt goes under N, not T.)
It's also customary to add a link under the Major District Indexes on the TheNexusProject page.
Try to keep the synopsis of your entry to one line, and don't forget to add the neighbourhood it belongs to in parentheses.
You are responsible for listing your own entries on these lists. If you don't, then your entry will be much harder for people to find and refer to.
(By the way, it's considered polite to add your entry to the Index using a minor edit.)
Items By Type
This is in five categories: Singular People of Note; Trade Establishments and Money-Makers; Societies, Families and Groups; Places, Neighbourhoods and Areas; and Items of Note. An entry only gets listed in one of these five sublists; try to determine which category your entry best fits into rather than putting it into more than one.
