'''Information collection task for Opasnet''' is a decentralised way of collecting useful information to [[Opasnet]]. Anyone can contribute to Opasnet for free (see [[Main Page#How can you participate?]]). But there are some pieces of information and some tasks that are especially important for the [[THL]] maintenance team of [[Opasnet]]. Therefore, [[THL]] (National Institute for Health and Welfare, located in Finland) is willing to pay for those people who do the tasks listed on this page. Anyone can read the task list, search for the information, organise it into a proper format and upload it to the website.
 
==Scope==
 
What is an efficient way to update [[Opasnet]] pages in such a way that
* the most important content gets high priority,
* the tasks are distributed outside the core Opasnet group if possible,
* the editors can get paid if they work on material that is of strategic interest to [[THL]],
* the quality of pages is kept high, and
* copyright rules of external material are not violated?
 
==Definition==
 
[[THL]] can organise this work and pay for the workers. The only requirements for the payment are that 1) the person registers him/herself to [[Opasnet]] and the [[THL]] system for payments, 2) the task and the amount of compensation for the work is agreed beforehand with the contact person, 3) and the contact person controls that the agreed work has actually been done. [[THL]] will pay for the social security costs based on the Finnish law. The taxes must be paid by the worker, but THL may take care of the practicalities if a Finnish tax deduction card is given to THL. Workers not located in Finland should find out about possible tax treaties and rules themselves. Note that this work does NOT make the worker an employee of [[THL]], and in addition to the monetary compensation, other benefits are NOT offered (no days off, unemployment security or similar).

===Practical guidance===
 
Ensyklopedia-artikkelit ovat samantapaisia kuin Wikipediassa (jota saa käyttää vapaasti kunhan viittaa asianmukaisesti) eli yleiskuvauksia kyseisestä aiheesta. Meidän tapauksessa saa mennä tarkempiin yksityiskohtiin terveys- ja ympäristöasioissa kuin mitä tyypillinen Wikipedia-artikkeli menisi.
 
A reviewer will be nominated for each task. Hän käy läpi tekemäsi sivut sitten, kun ne ovat valmiit. Voit kysyä häneltä tai minulta myös lisätietoja.
 
Lue nämä sivut läpi:
* http://en.opasnet.org/w/Information_collection_tasks_for_Opasnet
* http://en.opasnet.org/w/Main_Page#How_can_you_participate.3F
* http://en.opasnet.org/w/Help:Editing
* http://en.opasnet.org/w/Moderator
 
Pari vinkkiä:
* My preferences -osiosta http://en.opasnet.org/w/Special:Preferences kannattaa valita Editing-osiosta vaihtoehto Disable rich editor.
* Sivuja kannattaa luokitella kategorioihin pistämällä sivun alkuun <nowiki>[[Category:Kategorian nimi]]</nowiki>
** Olemassaolevia kategorioita löytyy http://en.opasnet.org/w/Category:Main_category mutta niitä saa keksiä itse lisää tarpeen mukaan.
* Kaikki tietolähteet pitää viitata kunnolla käyttämällä <nowiki><ref></nowiki>-tägiä. Katso ohje http://en.opasnet.org/w/Help:Editing#Simple_reference_list
* Työstä maksetaan tuntiperusteisesti (9.09 €/tunti), eli pidä kirjaa työtunneistasi oheisella lomakkeella: http://en.opasnet.org/en-opwiki/images/e/e0/Hely_tuntityo_thl.pdf
* Työ laskutetaan palkkiolaskuna tällä lomakkeella: http://en.opasnet.org/en-opwiki/images/9/9e/Hely_palkkiolasku_thl.pdf
** Tilaajan nimen kohdalle kirjoitetaan Jouni Tuomisto / YMAL / YMTO. Henkilönumero (HOT) jätetään tyhjäksi.
 
Kannattaa olla rohkea ja kokeilla. Peruttamatonta vahinkoa ei voi aiheuttaa, koska sivujen korjailu on niin helppoa jälkikäteen.
