Contribute an hour of your time

  • If you have a free hour you want to contribute, please find a wiki pagethat interests you—and could be improved with something you know or could explain more clearly.
  • It's simple to click the edit tab/button, and enter some new text or links, or whatever you want. Don't worry about making a mistake with the formating, others will come along to fix things up.
  • If you don't want to edit the page directly, each page has a matching 'discussion' page, which you can reach by clicking the 'discussion' tab/button at the top. These pages are meant to collect reader comments and questions relevant to the parent page. See for example, Talk:Welcome_to_the_Sugar_Labs_wiki.
    Remember to click the 'Watch' tab button so you will be notified of changes to the page. When you register your email with you account name, you can also click the 'prefs' (preferences) link at the top right of any page, and then, on the 'Watchlist' tab page, you can set a preference to add any page you edit to your personal watchlist.
  • If you want to enter whole new content pages, there are some guidelines at Wiki Team/Guide/Page Creation. There are instructions there for experimenting with new pages in you personal 'User_talk:' section of the wiki.
    By this means, you can share and collaborate on whole projects in the Sugar Labs fields of interest, like Ed Cherlin's Creating textbooks.

It's your wiki!

Please take a hour to explore the wiki, learn what's there, and then consider what's missing. At your next opportunity, enter that missing piece!

It's your collective intelligence and contributions that make wikis work well.

Thank you for your contributions!
