Article authors provide a full profile that is verified and [[verifiable]].  This is called transparency because the identity of authors can be clearly seen.  [[User]]s can become authors and editors.  Authors write the articles.  [[Editor]]s manage the Panopedia Taxonomy; how the articles are organised.  Authors put their {{tag|RealNamesNetwork|real names}} to articles and collaborate on articles by mutual consent.  And any author can provide supplementary or alternative contributions.  Any user can comment on an article, provide information and urge changes.
