From Tribewanted

Welcome to Tribewanted's Wiki!

This Wiki is inteneded as a source for information about the Tribewanted (TW) project. TW members may create new topics, or edit existing topics as they see fit.

== Contents == Click a topic below to begin:

• Tribewanted General information about the tribewanted project
• Vorovoro Information that is specific to the island of Vorovoro
• Reference Have a handy formula for sizing solar systems? Put it here
• New members New to the tribe? Click this one!
• What's a Wiki? What is this, anyway?

Purpose

This Wiki was created to accomplish the following:

• To document work that has been completed and the decisions that guided their development
• To orient newcomers to the project so they can quickly understand where we have come, and where we are going
• To provide a reference for technical information relating to the project
• To allow members to maintain information in real-time, without waiting for someone else to approve or take action
• To post photographs and documents in a manner where they can be found later
• To allow a large online community to actively participate in the project

Editing guidelines

• Only edit text with what you believe is factual information. If you are adding knowledge gained from an outside source, quote the source as a reference.

• This wiki is intended as a source of reference information on the TW project. It is not intended for marketing or promotion -- that is done on the main tribewanted.com web site.

• This is not a blog. Do not create pages about your latest trip to Vorovoro -- you can do that from your tribal home page.

• No bitching. Have something controversial to say, or just complain about? Don't do it here -- try the discussion forum instead.

• Keep in mind the scale of this project. There may be other islands or projects in the future. Instead of writing "on the island", you should write "on Vorovoro."

• Topics must be kept relevant to the Tribewanted project, or they will be deleted. If you create a topic called "bamboo", then it should talk about how bamboo is used on Vorovoro, for example. If you want to know information about bamboo in general, you'll find it in www.wikipedia.org.

• Since this is a Wiki -- not a discussion group -- feel free to add your own topics, or edit exiting topics, as you see fit. You don't have to ask anyone first. Keeping in mind the rules above, you should make sure your information is factual and not based on opinion. If you make a change that is wrong, don't worry, someone else will come along and undo your edit or fix the error.
