First: Ask yourself...

You should ask yourself some questions before adding the ASI

1) Do I have additional insight into some aspect of the case study?

This could be due to personal experience as a stakeholder or other individual involved in the case, or due to academic or professional insight.

2) Can I focus an argument related to this case?

Your ASI article should be focused on a specific topic or package of topics related to a case. You can always add multiple ASI articles to a single case study to discuss multiple aspects or interpretations of a case.

3) Does this information need its own, personalized section?

General information about the case and its many aspects should go in the body of the case study. A topic might need its own section if it a) represents a body of original research based on experience or extensive literature review or b) represents a limited viewpoint on the case that might not be shared by all parties involved.

Then, While Preparing your Article

Provide supporting materials where applicable in your ASI. You can cite references, include links, and make a strong argument in your ASI article.

These articles can be seen as analogous to academic arguments, op-ed style essays, or other professional writings. Make sure that your composition reflects your professional experience -- polite, clear and accurate.

After ASI Submission

Monitor the Discussion page for your ASI. You will want to respond to questions or comments you receive regarding your article. You can always edit and update your article. AquaPedia editors may make small edits that improve flow, grammar, etc, within the article. Any suggestions for major changes will be posted to the discussion page.

Due to system limitations, it may take up to 48 hours for your article to first appear "linked" to the case study to which it is attached.
