On how to use the wiki

Start editing

First of all you need an account, this is so other users can see who made the edits. To create an account just press the Log in / create account link at the top right of the page. To then start editing this or any other page either click the edit link at the top of the page or use the edit button at the beginning of each section. This takes you to the edit page: a page with a text box containing the wikitext: the editable source code from which the server produces the webpage.

Type your changes

You can just type your text. However, also using basic wiki-markup to make links and do simple formatting adds to the value of your contribution. Also see the special help page

Preview before saving

When you have finished, click Show preview to see how your changes will look before you make them permanent. Repeat the edit/preview process until you are satisfied, then click Save page and your changes will be immediately applied to the article.

Tutorial

View the PowerPoint version of the Coastal Wiki Tutorial online - Contains slides that go over the basic skills of uploading articles and editing in coastal wiki, intended for new Coastal Wiki users. Covers headings, lists and numbering, emphasis, images, references, links and definitions.
