Editing policy

 * WP:EDITING is a policy document that includes good advice about how to address content issues. The emphasis is on WP:PRESERVE unless the content is obviously false or otherwise inappropriate.
 * Be aware of WP:TE which covers tendentious editing such as repetitive behaviour, constantly making the same point, patterns of disruption, etc.

Usernames

 * If a new username looks dubious, see WP:USERNAME for the policy but act cautiously unless there is blatant misuse. Advice given is to politely draw the user's attention to the policy and try to encourage them to create a new account with a different username. Either of the or  templates can be used for this.

Verification

 * Verifiability. This includes: "All material in Wikipedia mainspace, including everything in articles, lists and captions, must be verifiable. All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation that directly supports the material. Any material that needs a source but does not have one may be removed. Please immediately remove contentious material about living people that is unsourced or poorly sourced".
 * Citation needed. This includes: "In wiki markup, you can question an uncited claim by inserting a simple   tag, or a more comprehensive    clause".
 * Template:Unreferenced – only if the article has NO citations at all
 * Template:More citations needed – use if the article doesn't have enough citations
 * Template:Unreferenced section – use for sections only, not for the whole article
