tanasinn.info uses the same open-source software as Wikipedia. Their [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents/Editing_Wikipedia help pages] are a more complete resource to learn how to edit the wiki, but they tend to be [[tl;dr]]. 

== Editing pages ==

You can edit most pages by clicking the 'erpe' button. You can edit specific paragraphs by clicking the '[erpe]' links in front of paragraph titles - it's often more convenient that way.

The edits you make are logged. If you are not registered, your IP will not be displayed to '''normal''' users.

== Important things to remember ==
* Don't worry if you get something wrong. Somebody is likely to fix it later.
* <big style="font-size:40px;">Use the preview button.</big>
* Try to sign your name, address, phone number, social security number, credit card number expiration date and the fucking 3 digits behind for you comments on talk pages when it's important to know who is speaking. Don't forget the credit card details. (use <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> to add a dated signature)
* Links:
** <nowiki>http://google.com</nowiki> → http://google.com
** <nowiki>[http://google.com]</nowiki> → [http://google.com]
** <nowiki>[http://google.com google]</nowiki> → [http://google.com google] 
* Titles: Start with
<nowiki>== Level 2 titles ==</nowiki><br>
then use<br>
<nowiki>=== Level 3 titles ===</nowiki><br>
and so on. Maximum is level 6.
* Bullet lists: start each line with a * for a bullet, with a # for a number. Use two symbols (**) to add an indentation level.
*# You can mix both symbols
*## And go down as many levels as you want
*## <big style="font-size:40px;">Use the preview button.</big>
*## Numbers are given automatically. Don't add them yourself. 
* Upload a picture: use the "Upload file" link on the left of the page.
** You can give your file a more meaningful name when uploading. Image:FUCKING CAT.jpg is easier to undersand than Image:1147674449393.jpg.
** PNG files may not be resized properly, and resized GIF files are not animated. 
*** Picture usage

== Tables ==

Tables are a bitch to get right. You can use HTML formating or wiki formating. Whatever you do, make sure it will be easy to edit and add comments. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Table Use this WP page for help].
