Technical Communication Wiki Article

Purpose:

This was my first time writing a Wiki article. The constraints of the article guided my research and the paper. The word count (500) and Wikipedia's requirement for a neutral point of view (NPOV), required consideration when choosing what to include and how to write about it. There is very limited information on how to manually code S1000D data modules, as most use authoring software to code their publications. Because of this, most of my time was spent researching XML and practicing XML coding in a code editor to ensure I understood the subject.
