The following is a concise manual for those new to wikis.

What is a wiki?

  • For an in-depth description on wikis, consult Wikipedia.
A wiki is a website that uses wiki software, allowing the easy creation and editing of any number of interlinked Web pages, using a simplified markup language or a WYSIWYG text editor, within the browser. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and to power community websites. The collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia is one of the best-known wikis.

How do I get around?

  • On your left is a navigation toolbox containing links to various places.
  • Above are tabs reserved for contributors.
  • The Main Page will cater to most of your needs with major articles, and from there you may travel down to smaller, specialized articles.
  • Use the search box, as it will prove incredibly helpful in finding articles.

How do I help?

  • To create or edit articles, you must sign up.
  • To edit articles, click on the 'edit' tab at the top.
  • To learn the appropriate codes for formatting pages, you may use this cheatsheet.
  • For general directions and our wiki policy, learn how to get started.
