User Registration
We do welcome anyone who wish to contribute to the wiki.
However, because of the high level of spam the wiki gets when it's not protected, the edit and creation of pages is limited to registered users and the self-registration is disabled.
To request a user account please send an email to wiki administrator with a username and a valid email address and you will receive an initial password soon after.

A few additional hints:
- Spelling — In English, use US English spelling only. Please, spell-check your contributions. Some browsers have integrated spell-checking that will work with the wiki editor. If that is not the case, you can use third-party tools that allow you to spell-check the content of forms. For example, the Google Toolbar offers such spell-checker.
- Terminology — Some terms are defined in the Glossary section, please use them.
- Slashes in path — Use slashes ('
/') rather than backslashes ('\') in all real links. You can use slashes or backslashes as the platform requires in the links that are only displayed.
