This is the home page for the How to Use Our Wiki space. The information on this page assumes that you have a username on this wiki and that you are logged in. If you don't have a username but you would like one, contact the maintainer of this wiki.
The most important instruction
...is just do it. You will find that wiki's are very forgiving. Mistakes are easy to fix. It is a wiki's nature to change, so don't try too hard to get it right the first time. What is right actually changes as more users join the collaboration and as more information is included. So it isn't possible to get it right the first time. Now that you know perfection is impossible, just go ahead and do what seems expedient at the time.
