Document Header

Each page which is a document tree root (such as this one), must provide an index of backlinks to that page and the primary navigation from the HomePage should be visible as "Cookie Trail"-like links at the top of the page.

A page which is not a document tree root must not contain a link to the HomePage.

"Cookie Trail"-like links at the top of each page must reflect one of the above document tree roots and must provide links to the primary document access path.

Below this, cross indexing links to other paths may be provided.

Document Status

A WikiWord indicating the WikiPageStatus should be included on each page which is not a simple definition.

Currently, WikiPageStatus is indicated by:

• WorkInProgress:A document undergoing editing.
• WikiAffirmed:A document accepted as authoritive due to lack of objection.
• WikiObjection:A note to a document indicating that one or more VirianVectors object to the page.
• WorkInVoting:A document submitted for voting.
• WikiAccepted:A document accepted by a vote.
• WikiRejected:A document rejected by a vote.
• VoteCalledFor:This document is fundamental and requires a vote to be accepted.

A special link, AdminAttention <followed by the reason for the administration attention request>, is used to create an index of pages which require attention from the Administrator. This link may be added temporarily to any page, and will be removed (except for this example) once the administrator has dealt with it.
