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.

You don't need anyone's 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 any 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.

When you're done reading this, click the back button on your web browser, or click the Main Page navigation link on the left side of this page.

Don't I have to log in or something? NO!
Don't I have to know HTML or some other complicated computer lingo? NO!
Don't I have to discuss my change on the forum to make sure it's a good idea first? HELL NO!
Won't this lead to chaos, misinformation and the end of the world as we know it? NOPE!

Go ahead, click the edit tab at the top of this page -- I dare you!

To create a new topic, start by placing an internal link (simply the name of your topic) on an existing page. Type it in double brackets like this: [[my topic]]. Save the page, then click the link. That will bring up your new page and you can start typing!
