A Wiki is a collaberative document, meaning groups of people create and maintain it.
Anyone can edit any topic in the Wiki. You can fix spelling errors, delete things you think are wrong, or add new topics you think are relevant.
There is no editor -- you don't ask anyone for permission to make a change. If you think it needs to be changed -- go for it. All changes are logged in a history, so if someone else thinks your change is wrong, they can just roll it back to how it was before.
To edit an exsting topic, just click the edit tab at the top of the page and edit away!
Everyone is encouraged to contribute -- that's how it works. If you have some knowledge about Tribewanted, this is the place to put it down so others can benefit from your experience.
