Information About This Site
//What is a Wiki? -// A wiki is a type of website that allows users to easily add and edit content and is especially suited for collaborative writing.

Here are some links to pages about Wikis:
 * [|More About Wikis from Wikipedia]
 * [|Using Real Names on Wikis]
 * [|Wiki Pattern Language]
 * [|WikiSpaces Support Forum]
 * WikiText Markup, for those who don't want to use the visual editor.

Wiki Formatting Help:
If you need help formatting text, or switching between the text editor and the visual editor, scroll to the bottom of any editing page. There's a button to Preview and another to Save, and a link to Cancel the editing. There's also a button to switch editor style and a link that reads "help on how to format text." Click that link and a WikiText markup window pops up, so you needn't leave the editing page to check syntax.

Who Was Here?:
Please "Sign" your contributions with WikiText markup. Use three tilde characters for a signature, and four tildes for a signature with date. The tilde looks like this: "~" 1139410827
