Adding is easy

Editing this Wiki is extremely easy.

On every page, there's a menu bar at the top with two important menu options: "Edit page" and "New page"

Editing Existing Pages

If you're on a page and want to add some material or make a change, just click on "edit page". Once you're on the edit page, it's extremely easy to figure out how to make changes. Just start typing and hit "preview" to see how what you've typed translates onto a page. You're given the opportunity to cancel the changes you've made if you don't like them. This is also how you can fix any mistakes you see.

Adding New Pages

You can also create entirely new pages or sections of this Wiki. If you'd like to write an article about a subject not currently covered, just click "new page" in the horizontal menu bar at the top of every page, and add away. Experiment with the templates available, or start from a blank page. Once you've created a new page, figure out where else on this Wiki you want people to be able to find links to that new page, and go back to those pages to add a link to your new content.

Tags

Whether you are adding whole new pages, or just editing pre-exsisting pages, be sure to scroll to the page footer and add some tags. That will make it easier for other people to find your content later. For instance, this page is tagged "Help" so if you used the search box looking for Help, this page would have popped up. Just click on the little + sign, and type in the box that will open. Hit "enter" when you are done.

More information

If you are having trouble, a good place to ask questions or get more information about editing pages is at the Wiki How-To Forum (if it's your first time on the forum, you will be prompted to create a username & password).

If you want to contribute anonymously you can, but there is also an option to create a username when you log in. If you do create a username, any additions or changes that you make to the site will be attributed to you. You may also wish to enter an e-mail address for others to contact you--this is not required, but it is a good way to become part of this community of pro-freedom state-level political bloggers.

You can also ask questions or add material by clicking on the "comments" tab that appears at the top of every page.
