# Creating A New Tipline

[Tiplines](/reference-material/glossary.md#tipline) make it easy for anyone to report problematic content without having to go to the Junkipedia website or set up an account. Organizations using Junkipedia can create tiplines to be shared with their constituents.

The first thing you should do before creating a new tipline is to decide what [type of tipline](/getting-started/setting-up-tiplines.md#tipline-types) you want to create. Next, [go to the "Manage Tiplines" page](/getting-started/setting-up-tiplines.md#go-to-manage-tiplines-page) and check what tiplines are already defined for your organization. From there, you will be able to see all of your current tiplines. Some default tiplines may already have been created for you when your organization was added to Junkipedia. The instructions for creating a new tipline continue below and vary by tipline type.&#x20;

### New Web, Email, or API Tipline

The following types of tiplines can be created with the "New Tipline" button on the "Manage Tiplines" page:

* Web&#x20;
* Email&#x20;
* SMS
* Whatsapp
* Facebook Messenger
* Instagram
* Slack
* API&#x20;
