Usage tips
MySource allows authors to publish information from one central source to several locations.
- Simply link out to the relevant page.
- Or, nest the content in your site, with an introductory paragraph to give context.
How to
It's important to make use of central sources of information wherever possible, rather than duplicate data across UWA websites and systems.
By linking to or embedding definitive content from authoritative sources, the visitor will always get the up-to-date, official information.
Cutting and pasting such information to your pages, or creating your own content already available from a definitive source from scratch, not only wastes resources, but can also mean that if you are unaware of changes in the original source, your information will be out of date.
To check that your proposed new content does not duplicate or contradict existing information, use the UWA search function to look for existing content on other sites.
