How to Add an Entry

(By which we mean an entry in the Happening Now Pages.)

• Click [edit] Click the edit link in the box you wish to edit.
• Expiration Date. Always put an expiration date or time on your entry. Clean up your entry at that time.
• Be Brief or... If your entry requires a lot of explanation, create a separate page linked from a brief descriptive entry. Delete the page when it is over.
• Clean up. While you are there, if you see an expired entry move it to Recent, or Happening Now Old or delete it.
• Topping. Feel free to redate your entry and move it to the top, but not more than once a day. Avoid topping wars.
• Graffiti. If you see a suspect entry - troll graffiti - either delete it or if you are unsure, post a diary entry for discussion. (Leave a linked note to the discussion so we don't get multiple diaries.)
