	== ~~Group's~~ ~~Contact~~ ~~Information~~ ==		== Writing or Editing Articles ==
			Be bold in editing articles, but maintain a [[Cunnan:Neutral_point_of_view \| neutral point of view]], and have a look a at the [[Cunnan:Most_common_Cunnan_faux_pas \| common faux pas]]. While Cunnan has a heavy bias to the SCA, other groups are also represented. So consider this when writing general articles. A good example is [[Combat]] which is mainly SCA combat, with little said about other medieval re-enactment groups.

			When creating a new page, please follow the [[Cunnan:Naming_conventions \| Naming conventions]].
