 I've updated the syntax of the article to be a more MediaWiki article than a twiki one. Additionally '''people should use the summary when making changes!'''. Also someone should place a link to this article on the [[Main Page]] otherwise it's quite hard to use (or we could start thinking about categories?). --[[User:Cammy|The Dead One]] 10:26, 21 Sep 2005 (IST)

 There -is- a link to this article on the main page (:-) under "Articles", and stuff on the main page does need to be organised better). What are "summaries"? Hmm, this MediaWiki stuff is all complicated! - Kpodesta, mediawiki newbie.

+My mistake. Summaries are the little text box just below the big text box when you edit an article. It should describe the change you are making. It appears in the [[Special:Recent changes]] and the history of a topic. MediaWiki isn't any more complicated than TWiki, just a different way of doing it I think.
+For the main page, I'd love to see very little there (besides perhaps a article spotlight and the latest new article). Instead everything could be stored in categories, IMHO. It might be worth writing up a few editing guidelines in the [[Help:Contents|Help]].
