About the Wiki category

Welcome to the Wiki. Enjoy this experiment where all topics can be edited and expanded by others.
You are responsible for the quality of your edits. :heart: Users in @trust_level_1 and greater may post here. Sorry if you only created an account this morning and are still @trust_level_0.

  • This category is an experiment. Perhaps it will be useful to allow wiki editing in this category on all posts. Perhaps not.

  • This is a test in how we all get along. May it prove fruitful!

there is already ‘How to’ category - isn’t it redundant?

It is not.

:bookmark_tabs: How to is only for @trust_level_2 and of course topics are expected to follow certain parameters.

  • topics on this category are not collaboratively edited or collaboratively maintained.

Wiki is anyone and everyone. You are simply expected to be helpful.

  • all topics are wiki by default.
  • edits are tracked and easy to recover at any point.
  • otherwise, only @trust_level_2 can make their posts into wikis using wrench icon.
    • most users never attain trust level 2 and fewer realize wiki functionality exists on this forum

And, we need more documentation and the easiest path forward is through collaboration. Like my what is compatible list. This info helps us all, and being a “howto” is secondary to just working collaboratively. If you want to move a post to :bookmark_tabs: How to all you must do is copy-paste. :grin: Interested?
