What's all this then? #

A WikiWikiWeb is a "collaborative hypertext environment", with an emphasis on easy access to and modification of information. Anybody can edit any page in any way they want. Anarchy in action!

This wiki runs on the MoniWiki. The MoniWiki is a PHP based WikiEngine. WikiFormattingRules are imported and inspired by the ?MoinMoin, another 'flavour' of WikiEngine.

You are encouraged to edit the WikiSandBox whichever way you like - it's a playground for you to learn how to change Wiki Pages.

• You can edit any page by pressing the 'Edit Text" link at the bottom left of the page.
  
• Capitalized words joined together form a WikiName, which hyperlinks to another wiki page.
  
• The 'highlighted title' searches for all pages that link to the current page.
  
• Pages which do not yet exist are linked with a question mark: just follow the link to make a new wiki page.
  
  

To learn more about what a WikiWikiWeb is, read about ?WhyWikiWorks and the WikiNature. Also, consult the WikiWikiWebFaq.

Interesting starting points:

• RecentChanges: see where people are currently working
  
• HelpForBeginners: to get you going
  
• WikiSandBox: feel free to change this page and experiment with editing
  
• FindPage: search or browse the database in various ways

NOTICE #

We've been having problems with bittorrent clients creating hundreds of concurrent connections to the internet. If you know a way to switch this off on your bittorrent client, please do so.

It will mean that other people can use the network more effectively and will allow them to access web server. Thx

Someone using a Windows PC on the network appears to have multiple spyware infections.
Please read SpywareInfections if this might be you!
