Wiki user charter
As with any group work, a few rules apply to ensure the good operation of the wiki. Please take the time to read them before posting your first contribution.
1. Registration
Anyone with a subject-specific reference concerning energy may register with Energypedia. When registering, personal data will be inquired and stored. You may cancel your registration at any time by sending an email to energypedia@gtz.de. Energypedia serves the right to disqualify users from the services in case of providing false information deliberately.
2 Content accuracy
As with any open system, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of Energypedia wiki's content. We kindly ask users to fix any mistake or report it to the website managers so we can make the necessary changes.
3. Contributing
Any user with an Energypedia.info account may contribute to the content. All changes are considered as publications. The author of the change will be publicly identified and hence agrees with the terms of the wiki's license: Creative Commons Attribution NonCommercial ShareAlike 3.0 License. All changes are tracked and all consequent version of all pages are maintained.
If you want to import text that you have found elsewhere or that you have co-authored with others, you can only do so if it is available under terms that allows wider distribution. Furthermore, please note that you cannot import information which is available only under copyright.
If you import text which requires attribution, you must, in a reasonable fashion, credit the author(s). Regardless of the license, the text you import may be rejected if the required attribution is deemed too intrusive.
4. Peer review
As with any wiki, content is continuously improved through peer review. Any user with an Energypedia.info account can take part to this process. Peer review can be applied to different levels, both to the style and the content.
5. Moderation / Mutual respect
Any article with offensive content or violating mutual respect rules will be deleted by the website managers. Any off-topic article will be deleted by the website managers. Any user who will not comply with those two rules will be warned and his/her account will be momentarily suspended. The account may be deleted if the user obviously refuses to understand the warning.
6. Advertisements
Mention of service providers, websites, product names and the like are not acceptable unless factual related to the topic. Articels may not be used for promotional purposes. In severe cases, particularly in the event of repetitive violation, Energypedia serves the right to delete articles and block the respective user.

We may modify the Terms upon notice to you at any time. You will be provided notice of any such modification by electronic mail or by publishing the changes on the energypedia newsblog. You may terminate your use of the Services if the Terms are modified in a manner that substantially affects your rights in connection with use of the Services.
