===== How You Should Create New Content =====
See the included wiki [[wiki:syntax]] for details.

  - Edit the homepage.
  - Add a new topic or link to the homepage as a link in a list. Try to stick to the existing format.
  - Save the homepage.
  - The new link can then be clicked on to take you to a ''"blank"'' page.
  - Create the new page that the link will point to for content.

===== Remember To Link Content =====
...for this is one of the nice things about webpages and wiki's. You should link and cross reference as much information as you can. This helps in the understanding of unknown concepts and key terms that a reader may not be versed in.

See the included wiki syntax [[wiki:syntax#links]] section for details on how to link to exterior pages or pages on this wiki.
