29: After you [register>http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/bin/register/XWiki/Register] with a valid e-mail address. You should receive email with subject "Validate your account on morgellonswiki.info" - Click on the link where it says "In order to activate your account, please follow this link." Then [log-in>http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/bin/login/XWiki/XWikiLogin?xredirect=http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/] with your account, please use the ’[Drafts>Drafts.WebHome]’ folder for any public proposals or subtopics you want to write about. If you prefer developing your document(s) in private, use the ’[DraftsPrivate>DraftsPrivate.WebHome]’ space, which can only be viewed by registered, logged-in users. Both these "spaces" are  writable by all registered users that have logged-in. However this is not the wild-west (or [Wikipedia>http://www4.dr-rath-foundation.org/THE_FOUNDATION/wikipedia_aug08.html]): note that editorial control of irrelevant content, shameless marketing & spam will be strictly enforced!
30: 
31: After a successful login, when you browse this ’[Drafts>Drafts.WebHome]’ or ’[DraftsPrivate>DraftsPrivate.WebHome]’ space, note the "Create" panel on the right-hand side - it indicates you have write permissions in that space. In the "Create" panel:
32: 
33: 1. check the default "New Page&#42;" option is selected,
34: 1. type-in the name of the page you want to create;
35: 1. click ’Create.’
36: 1. Note: Be sure your new page’s name contains no characters such  as *’.’ (period)* *’/’ (forward-slash)*, *’\’ (backslash)*, ’"’ (quote)*,* "’" (single-quote)*. This is because the document name (not the document title) is used as the URL, and those characters have special meaning in the "location" bar of your browser. It’s a good practice (although it may work for you, it might break for someone else) to also not use the* ’ ’ (space)&#42; character in the names of documents you create. In general, "[CamelCase>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CamelCase]" names like this are preferred: e.g. [CDCLiesVersusLymeReality>Spirochetes.CDCLiesVersusLymeReality].
37: 
38: When you browse an "/xwiki/bin/edit" URL or use the "Create" panel, you’ll be launched into [XWiki’s cool new WYWIWYG editor>http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/XWikiSyntax]. The document you’re editing only becomes visible on the web once you explicitly save it (see buttons at bottom of page); if you cancel, or browse to a diffferent web-page, nothing will get saved. In the case of accidentally browsing to a different page, you can use your browser’s "back" button to bring you back to the editor. Use the "comment" field to help people understand what got changed.
39: 
40: After you decide to save, go to ["What’s New">http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Dashboard] & you’ll see the document you just saved. The {image:http://morgellonswiki.info/xwiki/skins/albatross/icons/black-rss-mini3.png}["RSS feed">Main.RssFeeds] will broadcast the existence of that new document. Remember: there’s a record of everything done and changed, so if an "editing accident" occurs, any damage can easily be undone or rolled-back (see the "History" panel at the bottom of the document viewer (which is in every document view, and also at the bottom of the page you’re viewing currently).
41: 
42: Once some progress is noted on your document(s), the [administrator(s)>XWiki.XWikiAdminGroup] can promote you to being an editor of your own page(s), or area(s); and after that, you can get [editing rights to additional spaces and areas of the site>XWiki.XWikiEditorGroup].
43: 
44: 1.1.1 Communications, News and Collaboration
45: 
46: See [Site News>Blog.WebHome] for information on changes to the site, scheduled downtime, upgrades, new features, or new topics. New topics are posted to [Site News>Blog.WebHome] by topic-editors, site-editors and admins.
