This means that people of all ages and cultural and social backgrounds can write articles but must be related to history and match the appropriate standard. Irrelevant or substandard or disputed information is subject to removal.

If you require some more information about contributing you can contact us using the contact form.

How to create articles and maps

I still need to write some more information about creating articles and maps but I will do that as soon as possible.

How to report bugs

The system is still being fine tuned at the moment. This means that there can still be problems that are not related to the data. Most of them have already been identified but you can submit a description how your problem occurred on the contact form.

Data related bugs like overlapping countries or misplaced cities can be fixed by editing the data and should not be reported as a bug.
