Welcome to the diyAudio.com wiki
Most diyAudio members will be completely unfamiliar with the concept of a Wiki, so a good and easy to understand explanation is in order. A Wiki is a website where
you can edit
every page. That's right,
every page! See the link
[Edit this document] on the bottom of this page? If you click it you can edit this page. But don't edit this one, edit the
SandBox page. Before you say it won't work, read
WhyWikiWorks.
Why have a Wiki? A Wiki lets you create web pages. Do you want to write a how-to guide on BuildingTheAlephX
? amplifier? Or create a list of
EnglishTranslations for people that don't speak english but want to understand our slang terms? A Wiki makes these things a piece of cake.
Starting Points
- WhatIsAWiki. Background on the strange concept of being able to edit every page.
- SandBox. Test your wiki editing skills here.
- FormattingRules. To learn how to format your edited text.
- RecentChanges. Changes made on this site recently.
- WantedPages. These are pages in the Wiki which are named, but don't yet exist. They're also a great way for you to get started with Wikis!
There isn't much content here yet, because it hasn't been written yet. Would you like to contribute? Just click the "Edit this document" link at the bottom of any Wiki page.
Some adventurous diyAudio members have already started testing the Wiki in
WikiDiscussion. Perhaps a nice place to start, but then again it might be better to
[talk about it in the Wiki discussion thread] which is better suited to it.
