A&S Web Editors: Help & Training
These pages constitute a virtual training and help site for A&S Cascade web editors. University Web & Design maintain the official Cascade Help site.
Cascade training for Arts & Sciences web editors is currently being provided by Web & Design.
If you're already pretty good at Cascade, you can use these web pages to look up specific processes and refresh your memory. This is especially useful for infrequent tasks, so you don't have to muddle through trying to remember all the steps.
Arts & Sciences relies on our web editors to keep content accurate and up to date. We appreciate your work!
General Principles
All A&S web editors should be good digital citizens and adhere to these basic principles:
- Bad information is worse than no information. This is your guiding star. Never post information you do not know to be true. Update or remove outdated information.
- Good information is accessible, usable, understandable information. Follow accessibility guidelines. Use plain language.
- Build with the future in mind. Do not build what you cannot maintain. Keep sites easy to maintain - the person who edits the site after you may not have your skills.
- Follow William & Mary's editorial and other brand guidelines.
- Check over your site at least once a year to make sure your site is still on the right track.
