Help:Using the wiki

Want to update the Wiki but don't know where to start? This is the page for you!

What is a Wiki?

A wiki is a site or set of pages that are editable by any anyone. On the the Nottinghack wiki, you must be registered and logged on to do it. Need to add instructions on how to get and account, once we have decided!

You can edit the pages simply by clicking the edit tab on a page and changing the text. Formatting is achieved using wikitext.

Some basic information on wikitext is included on this page, and more help is available through the "Editing help" link on every edit page.

What shall I update?

Anything!

Well almost. A very small number of pages (such as the front page) are protected and can only be edited by an administrator. If you think one of these pages should change, write on the Discussion section of the page.
