There are very few community guidelines because we want to encourage contributions from lots of different people.
Here are a small number of suggestions, just to encourage some cohesion:
Point of view
Wikipedia can sometimes be biased against minority groups, in a misguided attempt to be objective. In contrast, we especially encourage articles informed by lived experience.
It's also safe to assume the reader is autistic, although they may only recently have discovered this fact, and not yet know all the terminology. This wiki is primarily by autistic people, for autistic people, although others are welcome to contribute.
We especially encourage a neurodiversity-affirming approach that suggests all neurotypes are equally valid, while simultaneously acknowledging that being neurodivergent in a neuro-typical society can be disabling.
Page titles
Where possible, page titles should only have their first word capitalised. "Like this", "Not Like This". The exception is if the page is about something that is usually capitalised, such as a book.
Titles should be singular, not plural, where it makes sense to do so. For example, "Sense" instead of "Senses".
