===Info on formatting as you're entering a case===
<p>When you're entering information on a case, there may be times when you want to format your text so that it will be italicized, in bold, or have other attributes. To do this, you must type in a little bit of code along with the text you're entering. Some common format changes and their codes are listed below.</p>
----
<br>
<p>To ''italicize'' your text, put it between two apostrophes, like <code><nowiki>''this''</nowiki></code>.</p><br>
<p>To make your text '''bold''', put it between three apostrophes like <code><nowiki>'''this'''</nowiki></code>.</p><br>
<p>To make your text both '''''bold and italicized''''', put it between five apostrophes like <code><nowiki>'''''this'''''</nowiki></code>.<br><br>
<p>Links to external sites are automatically generated if you type in the full address of the site. Entering <code><nowiki>https://www.ncac.org</nowiki></code> gives me a link that looks like this: https://www.ncac.org <br> <br>
<p>If you'd like your link to look like [http://www.ncac.org this rather than the URL], enter <code><nowiki>[https://www.ncac.org this rather than the URL]</nowiki></code><br><br>

'''Notes on Medium:'''<br />
“Electronic Media” includes Games.<br />
“Painting” includes Drawings and Prints.<br />
“Literature” includes all forms of writing. <br /><br />

This is the beginning of the "Censorship Incident" form. You can use this form to create a new article page about a censorship case.

First Time Adding a Case?


Ready To Start?

  • To begin your new page, enter your title below (if a page with that name already exists, you will be sent to a form to edit that page)
  • Remember to name your case. For most cases, the page should be named after the title of the censored work
  • If the work is particularly obscure (having few or no significant hits on Google) and has a short and non-descript name, append "(medium)" to the title (without quotes) where medium indicates if the work is a book, film, TV show, etc
  • All instances of censorship of a work should be listed on that work's article page.
  • Add {{DISPLAYTITLE:<span style="font-style: italic;">Title Of Article</span>}} in the Free Text box box of the Censorship incident Form when the title should appear in italics, in accordance with commonly accepted manuals of style
  • If an entire show was banned or more than one work from the show or exhibit, use the exhibit's title. If only a single work was rejected, use the title of the work
  • If a work doesn't have a title (or the title is impossible to find), and was not part of an exhibit with a title, use the name of the artist
    • If a work has no title, was not part of an entitled exhibit, and had many creators –such as with a community mural– make a title out of the location and medium (e.g., "West Side High School Mural (Plainesville, OH)")
