The goal of device pages is to help users compare a working device to a non-working one.
When creating a new device page, simply use the device's name as the title E.g., iPhone 12. After the page has been created, fill in the pictures in the relevant galleries, making sure to delete the placeholder image.
When done, save the page then click Edit semantics button (that looks like the widget to on the top right) at the top and enter the manufacturer, code name (example, specific model of a device), release date, and type of device in the appropriate fields. This step is CRUCIAL to ensure that the device gets categorized correctly. press Edit Semantics button at the top
We recommend using batch image upload first to upload all the images then add them to the galleries.
If there are external sources you want to link, making sure the content you are linking is archived is important. Here's how
Device pages are designed to provide reference information for the device, such as:
- Pictures of the PCB
- Power up sequence (If applicable)
- Diagrams/schematics of the important parts of the device
- Working state measurements of:
- resistances and voltage measurements for various power rails
- diode mode readings for important components, circuits, and connectors
