== Editing basics ==
===Review policy and conventions===
:Make sure that what you want to write belongs where you want to put it. The operator of the site likely has specific plans for the site, and your content might be deleted or unappreciated. You can always use the talk pages to ask questions or check to see if your idea will be accepted. Please make note of the [http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html GNU Free Documentation License 1.2] your contributions will be covered with.

===Start editing===
:To start editing an ACLWiki page, click the '''Edit this page''' (or just '''edit''') link at one of its edges. This brings 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 (described in the next section) to make links and do simple formatting adds to the value of your contribution.

===Summarize your changes===
:Write a short edit summary in the small field below the edit-box.

===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.

==Most frequent wiki markup explained==

Here are the 6 most frequently used wiki markups. If you need more help, consult the WikiMedia [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents User's Guide]:

You can ''italicize text'' by putting 2
apostrophes on each side.

3 apostrophes will bold '''the text'''.

5 apostrophes will bold and italicize
'''''the text'''''.

(4 apostrophes don't do anything special -- there's just ''''one left over''''.)

You should "sign" your comments on talk pages: <br>
- Three tildes gives your user name: [[User:John Smith|John Smith]] <br>
- Four tildes give your user name plus date/time: [[User:John Smith|John Smith]] 07:46, 27 November 2005 (UTC) <br>
- Five tildes gives the date/time alone: 07:46, 27 November 2005 (UTC) <br>

<div style="font-size:150%;border-bottom:1px solid #000000;">Section headings</div>

''Headings'' organize your writing into sections.
The Wiki software can automatically generate
a table of contents from them.

<div style="font-size:132%;font-weight:bold;">Subsection</div>
Using more equals signs creates a subsection.

<div style="font-size:116%;font-weight:bold;">A smaller subsection</div>

Don't skip levels, like from two to four equals signs.

Start with 2 equals signs not 1 because 1 creates H1 tags which should be reserved for page title.

* ''Unordered lists'' are easy to do:
** Start every line with a star.
*** More stars indicate a deeper level.
*: Previous item continues.
** A newline
* in a list
marks the end of the list.
*Of course you can start again.
