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!'''.

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. | |||

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.
