'''FAQ'''

* '''Why was my article removed from OAD?'''
: OAD only includes factual lists, not articles, narratives, or opinions. For more details, see the [http://gslis.simmons.edu/wikis/wikidirectories/Editorial_Policy editorial policy].

* '''How can I suggest a new list for OAD?'''
: If you wish to propose a new list for OAD, or move an existing list from another site to OAD, please [mailto:OAD.contact@gmail.com email] one of our editors. Please describe the list you'd like to add and your preferred name for it, and let us know your name, email address, and position or affiliation. An editor will get back to you as soon as possible.

* '''Will OAD editors control my content?'''
:Our goal is for the OA community itself to enlarge and correct the lists with little intervention from our editors or [http://gslis.simmons.edu/wikis/wikidirectories/Editorial_Board editorial board]. The OAD editors and editorial board will only ensure that the content complies with the [http://gslis.simmons.edu/wikis/wikidirectories/Editorial_Policy editorial policy].

* '''Can I upload images and other documents?'''
: The OAD does not include an ''upload'' feature because we focus on simple factual lists and want to maintain ‘light’ web pages that can be accessed even by users with very slow internet connections.

* '''Why couldn't I edit an OAD page?'''

: Editing privileges are limited to registered users. See the [http://gslis.simmons.edu/wikis/wikidirectories/Editorial_Policy editorial policy].

:Users may only edit pages with an ‘Edit’ tab. Pages without an ‘Edit’ tab may be edited only by administrators.

:OAD uses the same wiki software as Wikipedia. For editing instructions, therefore, see the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page instructions at Wikipedia].
