==Workflow==
This encyclopedia is one of the key elements of the ''scientonomic toolbox'', which collectively facilitate the scientonomic workflow. The key stages of the workflow are:

* '''Pose Questions:''' The goal of this stage is to scrutinize the current knowledge of scientific change and identify as many open questions as possible. The annual [[Scientonomy Seminar|seminar on scientonomy]] hosted by the University of Toronto's [http://hps.utoronto.ca/ Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology] is currently the main venue facilitating this stage of the workflow.
* '''Suggest Modifications:''' The goal of this stage is to advance our knowledge of scientific change by proposing modifications to it. These suggested modifications are published and properly documented. In principle, these modifications can be published in any journal which uses the scientonomic mechanism of modifications. At the moment, there is only one such journal, [[Journal of Scientonomy]]. This encyclopedia documents each [[:Category:Modification|suggested modification]].

== How to Write Articles ==
The first question you need to ask as an author: what kind of information are you going to enter? If you wish to create a completely new page, then what category does it belong to?
=== Topics ===
Is it a [[:Category:Topic|topic]] page? I.e. is it a page on a certain question that different theories are attempting to answer? Here are some typical topic pages: [[Theory]], [[Mechanism of Theory Acceptance]], [[Scope of Scientonomy]]. If your page is a topic page, then [[:Category:Topic|check here]] if such a page already exists and, if it does not, create a new topic page.

== How to Become an Author ==
If you have published in the [[Journal of Scientonomy]] or participated in the a [[Scientonomy Seminar|scientonomy seminar]] or [[Scientonomy Workshop|scientonomy workshop]], most likely an account is has already been created for you automatically. If you 'd like to contribute but still don't have an account, but know your scientonomy and believe you can contribute to the encyclopedia, please [mailto:hakobpaul.barseghyanpatton@mail.utoronto.ca email us] and we will create an account for you.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email the co-editors in chief [mailto:hakob.barseghyan@utoronto.ca Hakob Barseghyan], [mailto:nicholas.overgaard@mail.utoronto.ca Nicholas Overgaard] or [mailto:paul.patton@mail.utoronto.ca Paul Patton].
