| − | == How To Start Editing ==
| |
| − | * Anyone can be an editor.
| |
| − | * To edit any page on the wiki, press the ''edit'' tab on the top of the page (read the [[Posting Rules]] for rules and standards).
| |
| − | * The ''history'' tab shows who has recently changed the document and in what way. This is a useful way to see if anything has changed recently. The ''cur'' link on the left of any edit compares that version with the currently active one. The ''prev'' link compares it to the one before, showing what that author did.
| |
| − | * If there is confusion over an edit, questionable data, or information one is unsure how to write in the article, editors are welcomed to write in Talk Pages. Click on the ''discussion'' tab of an article to see it's talk page. If it's red, that means there has been no previous discussion; however, editors are free to simply create a new page. Remember to end your text with a signature by typing '''<nowiki>--~~~~</nowiki>''' in talk pages (but not the articles themselves).
