Super Quick Start Guide

You'll need to register to edit or add pages; check the upper right corner for that.

To edit a page, just go to that page and then click the edit tab. Controls are basically like a forum post. There's buttons for the most common tags up top.

Internal links to other pages in this site are made by surrounding the link in double brackets like [[this]]. (Learn that one... it's much faster than the toolbar button.) Go ahead and link to non-existent pages if you wish to have other people create that page.

For external links, use the form [http://www.example.com link title]. Note that the wiki will choke on certain characters that are valid in URLs.

If you want to display something that has a special meaning to the wiki, use the <nowiki> tags. Most tags use HTML style conventions rather than BBCode conventions.

To add a page, you must edit an existing page to have a link to the page you want to create. Then click that link and you'll be put directly into edit mode, since there's nothing there. By default, non-existent internal links are marked by a red link rather than blue.

Note that each page has a corresponding discussion page to talk about the article. It's one of the tabs at the top.

One thing to watch out for is that you MUST seperate paragraphs with a blank line, or the wiki will automatically put the text on the same line. Edit this page to see what I mean. To force a line break, use the <br> tag. (No need for a closing tag.)
