Add solutions as you find them. The Wiki Fire is a community learning experience. If you post what you learn, others can build on that knowledge. Some day, this page should be able to answer nearly any question about Wiki functionality.

For formatting help, here is the Cheat Page from Wikipedia. I don't know if it all applies to these pages, but most of it should.

You can also download this one-page Wiki Reference Card (PDF) and print it out. Keep it by your computer.

Creating a page

Search The Wiki Fire for an article. If that article does not exist, the site will ask you if you would like to create it. Do it! The more people use this Web site, the more usefulit will become.

If you just have a couple of things to say, go ahead and write them as clearly as you can. If you have a lot to say, you might want to organize them into categories--check out the table of contents subheading.

It's raelly great that people are sharing this information.

That's not even 10 miuntes well spent!
