How to use this site

A Wiki is a collaborative site, anyone can contribute and share:

Edit any page by pressing Edit at the top or the bottom of the page
Create a link to another page with joined capitalized words (like WikiSandBox) or with [[words in brackets]]
Search for page titles or text within pages using the search box at the top of any page
See HelpForBeginners to get you going, HelpContents for all help pages.

Wiki pages structure (please strictly follow the rules below, in order to avoid erroneous links, file mismatches, or data loss!):

Each Group should identify 1-2 Editors, who act as master group users and who will get extended permissions to generate/write/delete certain files.
The general (tree) structure of your wiki pages should be such that you start with a master page, which usually introduces your group and which is generated by the wiki adminstrators. The master page contains links to the respective client pages, whose names should be in the form <masterpage>/<clientpage>. E.g., the master page "MyGroup" may contain links to the client pages "MyGroup/News", "MyGroup/Members", and "MyGroup/Projects".
Initial access permissions will be set in the master page by the administrators. Those permissions hold automatically for each client page, unless they are re-defined in the client page's header. That is, you may want to define a public area (e.g., "MyGroup/public"), where everybody ("All") can read, or even edit, the pages' content, and a restricted area (e.g., "MyGroup/internal"), where only group members have access to. In each of the areas, newly generated client pages will have the same permissions as the respective upper page.
