Documentation for curating this wiki for Growing the Commons

There is a playground where you can try all of the skills below. Try it!

Don't worry if you don't understand all of this below, we will try to help you!

• getting an account
• navigating the site
• watch pages
• editing, saving & reverting
• different editing techniques
• page section headings
• basic text formatting
• lists
• links
• linebreaks and spaces
• inserting images
• emojis and special characters

These skills will get you started, and be enough for most page editing.

• Uploading images
• Namespaces in DokuWiki
• Tables
• WRAP
• MediaWiki and DokuWiki
• Signing comments
• Concept pages
• Starting a new topic

When you look at a page you have edited, sometimes it looks wrong. Tell us when you come across a problem, and we will list it here with some kind of solution. If not a FAQ, it will at least be a “Sometime Asked Questions”…

• templates & page structure
• creating and deleting pages

• The modified and very dense syntax page, edited to show what actually works here. The point of the pages above is to thin out and give much more explanation, to make it easier for everyone.
• our very short "cheatsheet" for using some key features (thanks, Katja!)
• DokuWiki's own syntax page (which doesn't cover the Markdown plugin and its effects)
• DokuWiki's current whole manual
