			The Workshop on Computational Approaches to Linguistic Creativity has now used the ACL Wiki as its home page for two years, [http://aclweb.org/aclwiki/index.php?title=CALC-09 CALC-09] and [http://aclweb.org/aclwiki/index.php?title=CALC-10 CALC-10]. Other workshops and conferences may also find it convenient to use the ACL Wiki to host their pages. The advantages include easy setup, easy editing, stability, archiving, and a recognized and respected URL.

			There are many interesting and useful pages in the ACL Wiki, covering a wide range of material, which makes it difficult to summarize the wiki. A good starting point for exploration might be the [http://aclweb.org/aclwiki/index.php?title=List_of_resources_by_language List of resources by language], which covers more than 50 different languages. Another useful resource is the [http://aclweb.org/aclwiki/index.php?title=List_of_NLP/CL_courses List of NLP/CL courses].

			Spammers occasionally insert spam links in the ACL Wiki, but the [http://www.bad-behavior.ioerror.us/ Bad Behavior] software package automatically blocks most link spam. Manual intervention is only required sporadically.

	All members of ACL are strongly encouraged to contribute to the ACL Wiki. Whatever subfield of Computational Linguistics you work in, this is your opportunity to raise the profile of research in your area. The time you invest in the ACL Wiki will have high returns for the community.		All members of ACL are strongly encouraged to contribute to the ACL Wiki.
