General Structure

Each resource (publication - paper, book, manual or other material included in the toolbox) gets a page with a structured description. The description is written in a wiki-style markup language, where different parts of the text can be marked as (sub)titles, or highlighted (bold and/or italic), numbered or bulleted lists, internal or external references (links).

According to our current convention, the title of each page should start with the title of the publication it is referring to, followed by the name of the author and its year of publication in brackets. If the original title is not in English, an English translation of the title should be separately added in brackets between the original title and the author-year pair.

We usually provide a link to the referenced resource only, but it is technically possible to upload a file and link it to the page internally.

Each page can be assigned to one or more categories, based on its topic(s). See more on categories below.

A category itself is also a page and may have a description. A category page is prefixed with Category: in its title. This prefix can be used for searching categories and creating new categories as well. For example, to search for or refer to the category Bridges, you may enter Category:Bridges.
