A WikiWiki, commonly abbreviated to Wiki, is a collaborative document creation tool. This Wiki is intended to facilitate the development of the INAP GARD Guide.

Help is available for every part of creating the guide.

1. The Wiki already contains the approved Table of Contents for the Guide as a set of pages ready for content.
2. Help with common formatting and data entry problems is available from the Editing Help page.
3. Email help is available from Conrad Muller at Golder Associates, Redmond, WA US cmuller@golder.com.
4. Classes (by teleconference) are available. Contact Rens Verburg at Golder Associates, Redmond, WA US RVerburg@golder.com.

The Wiki software converts your text and markup (formatting) into a Web page.

1. First you must create an account so that you can edit.
2. This Wiki could use normal HTML markup, like any other Web page, or special markup that is meant to be easy for non-programmers
   1. On this Wiki we will use the simplified markup wherever possible.
   2. Be sure to try out the Editing Toolbar at the top of each edit page.
   3. Take a look at basic text formatting techniques.
3. Experiment in the The Sand Box. This is a safe place to create new pages and try your editing and formatting.
