Ready to contribute to this website? DwebYVR.org is hosted on MediaWiki. You can Google to your heart's content the in's and out's of editing on MediaWiki, meanwhile, here are a few quick-start tips:

Create an Account

Create an account in order to modify this site - click the person icon in the top right of the screen and follow the prompts.

Make a New Page

There are several ways to make a new page on MediaWiki. Possibly the easiest is to search for a page that doesn't exist yet, and you will be taken to that URL with no content, and you can use the edit function to populate that page with what you want it to say.

Create Your User Page

Now that you have an account, tell the world about yourself! You can copy/paste from this User Profile Template.

MediaWiki Text Styling

Formatting your text makes it easier and more fun to read! Wikis use the wikitext markup syntax to control text formatting - refer to the MediaWiki Cheatsheet for guidance on how to do things like italics, bold, headings, and links.
