Editing the page

! Every page revision is saved, and can be "got back", so don't worry about ruining things, or adding too much. It's all fully editable.

  1. Firstly, the most important thing is to get useful information on here. Get the text on, and save it.
  2. The wiki uses a bizarre kind of text markup, and there's help on how to format things. You'd be surprised what it can do.

If you click the "Help" menu item, you get a handy drop down appear (see screenshot)
