== Recommended Procedure for Posting or Contributing to Modeling Issues ==  
-
=== Step 1:  Is the exemplary ontology you wish to submit already in the [[Ontology:Main|Exemplary Ontology Catalogue]]?  ===
+
=== Step 1:  Is the modeling issue you wish to submit already in the [[Community:Main|table of modeling issues]]?  ===
-
View the [[Ontology:Main|Exemplary Ontology Catalogue]]. Is the ontology you want to add already there?
+
View the [[Community:Main|existing modeling issues]]. Is the issue you want to post already there?
-
* ''Yes?'' Click to open the ontology and check the information for accuracy and completeness. Make changes and additions as appropriate.  You are finished.
+
* ''Yes?''  
-
* ''No?'' From the catalogue page, click the ''Submit a new Exemplary Ontology'' button and continue to step 2.
+
*# Click link in leftmost column to open the issue.
 +
*# Check for accuracy and completeness.  
 +
*# Make changes and additions as appropriate following instructions in steps 3 and 4 below.  You are finished.
 +
* ''No?''  
 +
*# Click to [[Community:PostModelingIssue| Post a modeling issue now.]]
 +
*# Continue to step 2.
-
=== Step 2: Filling out the Exemplary Ontology form ===
 
-
* Fill in the mandatory fields:
+
=== Step 2: Creating the Wiki Page ===
-
** '''Name:'''Enter the name of the exemplary ontology.
+
# Enter the title of the wiki page. Enter the string: "Community:" followed by a short name. Give this some thought.
-
** '''Description:''' Give a concise description or abstract of the ontology, highlighting what is most important.
+
# Click the "Create" button to take you to the main forms for describing the issue.
-
** '''Purpose:''' Indicate what the ontology is for and what the intended benefits are to whom.
+
 
-
** '''Justification:''' Explain why the ontology is exemplary. It should meet some of  [[Odp:Exemplary_ontology|these criteria]].
+
 
-
** '''URI:''' Give a URI of where the .owl file may be found.
+
=== Step 3: Filling out the modeling issue forms ===
-
** '''Domains:''' Enter one or more [[:Category:Domain | domains]], separated by a comma.
+
How you proceed will depend on how well developed your thinking is about your issue. Fill in as many of the fields below as you can.  There are four tabs: Description, Image, About Modeling Issue, and Free Text.

 +
 
 +
* IMAGE Tab

 +
# Identify how you can improve it.

{{Info tip

 +
The goal is for all modeling issues to:
 +
* reach a stage of being very clearly defined
 +
* have one or more implemented solutions linked to design patterns
 +
* be clearly explained so others can benefit from your efforts
 +
* be illustrated by at least one figure.
