Editing Getting started

Welcome! This wiki is a community project run entirely by volunteers to provide information about organising for the BC Greens Victoria Regional Riding Association.

== Advice for editors ==

=== Editing guide ===

* Check out the [[Editing guide]] for detailed information on how to edit a page.

=== Don't be afraid ===
Clicking the 'Edit' button on a wiki page can be intimidating. You may feel like you do not have the best knowledge or expertise to edit a page or you may feel scared about making a mistake. This is normal! This wiki is edited by volunteers and we are all learning, making mistakes, and growing together. Mistakes can be fixed, pages can be deleted or moved, and lost information can be retrieved. If you are still unsure about making an edit, do it anyways!

=== Create a page ===
If you want to create a page that doesn't exist you can use the button below. For advanced information on creating pages, see the [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Starting_a_new_page#Using_Wikilinks|MediaWiki 'Help' page]].

<inputbox>
type  = create
width = 30px  
break = no
placeholder = Page title
</inputbox>
=== Improve a page ===
Improving an existing page is a great way to learn about editing while helping the wiki. If you see that a page that needs improvement don't ask "why is nobody is making these edits?", you are the nobody. 

* Pick a page that covers a topic you know about or are interested in.
* Check the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent changes]] list to see what other pages volunteers are working
* Correct spelling and grammar in a page
* Add your experiences and knowledge about organising to help other volunteers
* Add a reference. If a page makes unsourced factual statements that don't seem like common knowledge, look for a source and add it.

=== To-do list ===

* Check the wiki's [[To-do list]] if you want to help contribute to the wiki but are unsure with how to help.
