Adding to or editing the wiki

General principles

Make sure that all pages are relevant to the Wiki's shared understanding of deep tech.
Adhere to the project's purpose. Consistent content encourages more readers to your contributions and in turn more contributions from everyone - creating a valuable resource that creates scale and impact beyond any individual effort.
Contributors are encouraged to use common sense, to be bold with their edits, and to ignore all the rules if it prevents you from improving or maintaining the Wiki.
Refrain from any form of vandalism. We have very little tolerance for anything that sullies the good faith efforts of our many contributors.

If you're unsure, go ahead and make the edits anyway. This wiki is always a work-in-progress and any errors can easily be fixed.

What to do
