I really find this site very interesting, and it gives people a pleasure time! I really appreciate the creators of this website!

Using This Website

The Wild Bison Reference Project website uses software called MediaWiki. A Wiki is a type of website that allows for easy editing by any number of participants without the need to register as a user. This allows for greater collaboration. There are a few basis tags to learn when using a Wiki, though it is not as complicated as HTML, and for the purposes of this project, does not require a high degree of computer literacy to use. Please refer to the help page to learn more about the format of this website.

In a nutshell though, if you wish to enter references into this website, click on either Collected Bibliography A-E or Collected Bibliography F-L or Collected Bibliography M-Q or Collected Bibliography R-Z, and once there, click on the edit tab at the top of the page. Insert your reference alphabetically within the listing. You can also add your reference to the corresponding sub-categories if you wish, or just enter your references into the main list and allow other participants to sort the list.

If you'd like to contribute a bit more time to the project, you can sort references into proper categories or help find/create weblinks for online literature. Use the dissussion tabs at the top of each page to discuss each page. Please read and use these discussion pages (each page on this site has it's own discussion page) if you have any concerns with the format, with my choice of references or any questions about the project.

This is collaborative project, with the goal of involving as many stake-holders in wild bison issues as possible. Guidelines for this project are still being formulated, and everyone is invited to participate in the creation and evolution of this project.
