Wiki+Etiquette

Here is something to consider. Should the teacher who is developing a Wiki space for classroom use be required to develop and publish in the Wiki a set of Wiki Etiquette Rules for the students to follow? We could provide the teachers with some basic rules to which they could edit and/or expand.
 * Introduction:**

Here are some suggestions for Wiki Etiquette Rules I found in my research. Please feel free to add additional suggestions. Click on the "Discussion" link above to add more thoughts to this question.

1. **Maintain civility**. At all times, show proper respect for other readers and to the subjects of your work (e.g., authors of published articles). Do not criticize them as persons and keep all comments about their work constructive.

2. **Give proper credit for borrowed work**. In other words, don't plagiarize by putting text taken from another source on the wiki without proper referencing (that includes images as well as text). Do not make minor changes to other people's work on the wiki and claim the page as your own.

3. **Stay on topic**. Please resist the temptation to begin pages on topics outside the domain of the course (no movie reviews, chocolate chip cookies, or personal diaries about your weekend adventures).
