Exhibitions
Below is the suggested outline of WikiRug articles related to Exhibitions. This suggested structure is a guideline that the WikiRug believes will help to make Exhibitions-related articles readable and consistent in appearance and which we hope will assist editors in starting and improving these articles. We hope that you will take this guideline into consideration when editing articles on Exhibitions.
Introduction (before TOC)
The introduction of each article should follow the rules set down at Lead section. The lead section (also known as the lead or introduction) of a WikiRug article is the section before the table of contents and the first heading.
The lead serves as an introduction to the article and a summary of its most important contents. The average WikiRug article visit is a few minutes. The lead is the first thing most people will read upon arriving at an article.
It gives the basics in a nutshell and cultivates interest in reading on – though not by teasing the reader or hinting at what follows. It should be written in a clear, accessible style with a neutral point of view.
The introduction should begin with the name of the article in boldface and it should also be italicised. The article should be referred to in the present tense. The introduction should explain why the article is notable and give a brief overview of the entire page.
The lead section should not contain detailed or in-depth information on the subject, except very briefly as overview/notability information.
