This is not Wikipedia.
But that does not mean it’s a site for shameless self-promotion – it is not
The purpose of WikIT is to provide a resource to help in taming the torrent of information that knowledge workers have to deal with now.
If you have a useful commercial product or service related directly to one of the topics covered in WikIT, you may:
- Describe the product or service in neutral terms: Above all, be factual!
- Make one link to a relevant page
You may not:
- Link to “squeeze” pages.
- Add hype, multiple links, links to pure marketing or spam pages.
- Add descriptions of mind or concept mapping software – this seems pointless when there is already a site that covers this very extensively and in a neutral way at mind-mapping.org. An exception to this is when a particular kind of mind mapping software offers something that others do not and you want to describe how to use such a feature.
Changes or entries that do not comply with the above will be reversed out.
