== Be Bold! ==

The main idea of using a wiki to put information like this is that any of us can update and improve it. If you see a typo, a run-on sentence or something that is not stated clearly, '''edit it''' by clicking the edit tab a the top. As per wikipedia, the one of the most important directions that come to mind is '''be bold'''. Make the changes, don't be too concerned that you may have misunderstood. The wiki keeps track of all changes, and if something goes really wrong, we can revert to an earlier one. To see what I mean, check out the '''history''' tab on any page.

If you look for an entry and can't find it, you can [[starting an entry|start one]], if you can't write the whole thing, you can [[stub|mark it a stub]].
