[edit] Editing an Article

To edit an article you must first create an account with the Wiki and then login. Once you are logged in, click the edit tab at the top of the article; this will give you a textbox containing the code for the article, of which you can edit. Once you have made your changes, click the Save page button at the bottom to save the page. You can also view a preview before the article is saved by clicking the Show preview button. The Show changes button will display the current article and the article with your changes. You can edit all articles on the Wiki, but you cannot edit any of the content on the toolbars on the left or the way the site is layed out.

[edit] Tracking Changes

All changes made to an article are tracked and can be viewed by clicking the history button at the top. If it is necessary to undo an edit, then this can be done here.

[edit] Moving Articles

If it is necessary to move the article to another section (renaming an article), then you can also do that by clicking the move button at the top of the article.
