About this wiki

The Great Falls Civic Wiki is written by volunteers. It is not run by the City of Great Falls, by Cascade County, or by any board or department described in it. Nothing here is an official record. When it matters, go to the source document — every page should tell you where that is.

What belongs here

What a body is, how it was created, who appoints it, when it meets
What happened at a meeting, as the minutes record it, including the vote
What an ordinance or resolution did, in plain words, with its number and adoption date
Links to the agenda, the minutes and the recording

What does not

Anything we cannot point at a public document for
Opinions about whether a decision was right
Private information about residents, applicants or employees. Names of people who spoke at a public meeting are in the public minutes and may be summarised here; addresses and contact details of private individuals should not be copied across, even though the minutes carry them.

Style

Page titles are CamelCase?, one subject each. Meeting pages are named for the body and the date. Dates are written out. Dollar figures and vote counts are copied exactly from the source or left out. Where two City pages disagree — and they sometimes do, especially about meeting times — say so and cite both.

Corrections

Fix it yourself; that is the point of a wiki. If you would rather not, note the problem on the page itself in italics and someone will get to it.
