Wikileaks is not like Wikipedia. Every submitted article and change is reviewed by our editorial team of professional journalists and anti-corruption analysts. Articles that are not of high standard are rejected and non-editorial articles are fully attributed. If you are unsure about the attribution for an article or other information appearing contact the editor. Open commentary is restricted to Talk: pages, clearly labeled as such in their title heading.
Wikileaks should be described, depending on context, as the "open government group", "anti-corruption group", "transparency group" or "whistleblower's site".
Wikileaks staff should be described, unless otherwise specified and depending on context, as "investigative journalists", "analysts", "technologists", "open government activists" or, especially in an African context, "anti-corruption activists".
Contributors not otherwise noted should be described as "writing for Wikileaks" (for articles) or "activists" otherwise (e.g technical volunteers).
Leaks should be described as having been "released by" Wikileaks or as having been "obtained by Wikileaks". "Talk:" page comments should be described having been "posted" to Wikileaks.
