Information on Editing and Wiki Syntax

  • From the Media Wiki site
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing
  • From the Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page

Stylistic and Editing Policies for the NeoWiki

had some rules on the old wiki. They went something like:

  • Keep the pages short. If a page is long, it probably contains too many subjects and should be split into two or more pages.
  • MediaWiki splits title words on underscores. Name new pages with a descriptive title.
NeoJInfo is a bad page name/title.
Information_about_NeoOffice/J or NeoOffice/J_Information are good page names/titles.
  • Always add a comment (summary) of your change.
  • Join us in Talk:Main_Page for more rules and the latest wiki-team info!

Sandbox

established the Test page for everyone to use to try out editing and wiki techniques without fear of messing up any of the existing pages. If you want to experiment with how the wiki works, do so on that page.
