| − | == What is all this Wiki stuff? ==
| |
| − | Here's a walk through of everything that you see on this and other pages at this site.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | At the top and to the right side are functions for logging in, user preferencess, watchlist, and a personal user page and user:talk page. If you are not logged in you will see a ''Create an account or log in'' link. Below but to the left side are links to the article and it's talk page, aswell as edit, histroy and other functions if you're logged in. These are both mostly wiki things for contributing to this site, if that's not what you're doing then you can just ignore them for now.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The left side begins at the top with our logo, clicking on it takes you back to the beginning of the site. Below it are the navigation links to the main pages at our site, which will be describe in the next section. Below that is the search function, usefull for finding things. The toolbox is the last item on the page it has links to things like [[Special:Recentchanges|Rescent changes]], which pages link to the current page, and other special things.

| − | == EV related help from SEVA members ==
| |
| − | You can contact [[Members]] of SEVA for help, so we should probably spruce up the members page with our various areas of expertise. The [[SeattleEVA:Community_Portal|Community]] page has links to many other online communities such as the [http://www.evdl.org EVDL ''( Electric Vehicle Discussion List )''] which is a great online maillist resource going back to [http://www.seattleeva.org/maillist/evdl/?show=2006./1./970 1991] with many active posters and even more subscribers who just listen and learn.

| |
| − | == How do I use the Wiki Website ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | First you should [[Special:Userlogin|create an account]] and login. This way you'll see all the functions that we're going to learn about instead of just a few of them. The ''Wiki language'' is pretty easy and powerfull and looks good as plain text unlike that scary html stuff that requires a special webpage editing program. If your curious you can find a page with some format you want to use, like an image or bullet points, and click edit, then click show preview and you'll see the page, and below it the raw un-wikified source for that page, which you can edit and preview again. Most of the basic editing functions are on a toolbar at the top of the edit box. They include ''(from left to right)'':

| |
