Pretty much the same guidelines as on Wikipedia apply to Minimum Bias.

However, there are some differences and clarifications specific to our particular community. These are listed here.

  1. No collaboration-internal information. You are encouraged to add (also) collaboration-specific information, but it has to be public before you do so. If in doubt, talk to your collaboration's management. If you find internal information, please remove it immediately and/or if possible inform the author and the Minimum Bias administrators.
  2. Some original research is ok. Wikipedia has guidelines prohibiting you from adding your own research findings to it. Since we as a community are working on the frontier of knowledge, we can stretch this point a little: you may add new findings, including your own, as long as they are not very controversial. Please respect the mainly encyclopedic nature of Minimum Bias when doing this, and remember that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
