==What is a wiki and how you can help==
 
A wiki is a collection of interlinked pages where '''anyone can create new pages or edit existing ones'''.
 
Yes, that means '''YOU''' can, and should help if you see any missing or false information on the wiki. Signing up for an account is encouraged but not mandatory, you can participate anonymously. Only your IP address is logged. [[Special:UserLogin|Sign up here if you wish.]]
 
People edit wikis on their free time. If you see a page lacking content, it's because no one took the time and effort yet to add it. Maybe you can help?
 
==How to create pages==
 
First, make sure the page doesn't exist already by making a search. Use the magnifying glass button to start a search.
 
You can use these handy forms:
 
{{CreateNewPage}}
 
Don't worry if the name of the page isn't exact: pages can be renamed, and a redirection can be put in place.
 
==How to edit pages==
 
To edit a page or a section, click the "Edit" button on the right of a page. Almost all pages are editable by anyone.

[[File:Section_edit.png]]
 
The other icon will take you to the ''wikicode editor''. This is for advanced users. If you want to learn more about wikicode, see [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting the Mediawiki help page on formatting].
 
'''Don't be scared to edit any page!''' If you do something wrong, changes can be reverted at any time. Feel free to help!
 
'''All changes are logged''' so don't worry about making mistakes. See the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes page]] to browse the latest edits to the wiki.
 
==I don't know where to start==
