Artificial Intelligence Wiki: AboutWiki

Wiki is Hawaiian and means fast. It looks weird at first, but after you get used to it, it makes things considerably easier.

Here is an introductory link to a page on a different wiki website that explains what a wiki is: UseMod:WhatIsaWiki.

Here is an even quicker introduction (specific to the software on this website):

Anyone can edit any page and is encouraged to do so. On the page you wish to change, use the “Edit this page” link at the bottom.
Each page keeps a version history for the last two weeks, so don’t worry about screwing stuff up; other community members will back out your changes if they don’t like them (this is done with the “View other revisions” link).
RecentChanges lets you see how others are changing or adding to the wiki.
Words with lots of capitals like AboutWiki are automatically linked to the page named after that word. If there is no such page, a question mark link is created as an invitation to create one.
Links with a colon in them or surrounded by square brackets (Like:This, or [like this]) go to other, different websites.

If you are wondering why a wiki can work, see MeatBall:WhyWikiWorks?.

See UseMod:TextFormattingRules for a detailed specification of the markup used to make bold text, etc. (you don’t need to read through that page, though, since the edit page provides a short help below the editing window)
New categories are created similarly to new pages. You just edit some page and put a link to your page there, which is either a WikiLink? in CamelCase? or a [[Free_Link?]]. If you want to categorize that page, simply put the link CategoryWhatever on the page (preferentially at the bottom). Then, after saving that page click on the ’?’ after that Category link and put the link CategoryCategory there, so the category page you just created is referenced by the top level category page. That’s it.
