Welcome to the Wiki

What is it For?

This is a place for recording all those odd snippets of information you find that may be of use to others. The wiki has been loosely categorised using the menu on the left. The wiki is not a good place for asking for help with a problem with your puppy. Starting a thread on the forum is the best place for getting help, it is overflowing with experts

Jump In

This area is editable by anyone registered on the site. If you find a page that needs editing don't be shy just jump in and do it yourself. It is really helpful if you fill out the log message field explaining what you have changed about the page. This avoids people monitoring changes having to revisit a page every time you fix a typo or some formatting.

You can create links to other pages using the standard double square brackets notation. If you create a new page then you should add to a category to ensure that it can be found using the left hand menu. It is also possible to apply tags to pages to make them easier to find. The editor pane has WYSIWYG controls but if you want to experiment sand box2 is a good place to play. If you have some ideas to improve any aspect of the site Site Suggestions is a good place to add them. You might find Website ToDo List interesting to see the stuff we know needs to be done. Although a few 'I need help' type comments have appeared, please do not add to them. The proper place for getting all such questions answered is the forum: Free Registration gets technical support & more:- http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/

It's New

The pages of the previous puppylinux.org wikka were copied here in April 2008. Many of the pages have been categorised automatically. Many of the old pages can still be found under Old Wikka Wikki these may well be out of date, need editing or be Pages For Deletion, if you want to jump in and help you will be very welcome. If you liked the mainpage to the old wikka you can still use it to navigate this site, http://www.puppylinux.org/wiki/archives/old-wikka-wikki/everything-else/.... The complete old wikka is still accessible at http://pupweb.org/wikka/ though it is not really being updated.
