Welcome to the RoboJackets IGVC Wiki.
Please make a user name in the form of your first name and your last initial, as in "JackB" or "JimboW".
The "Help" page is of no use at the moment, but since this is an unmodified version MediaWiki, you can find documentation at the Wikimedia Help page if you need help editing.
Quick notes on editing
To create a page, simply go to that page (go to http://igvc.no-ip.org/w/(articlename) ) and click "edit".
When editing, use [[linktext]] to link to another article, and use [url] to link to an external URL.
More help can be found at the MediaWiki documentation page.

A Note on Uploading
The following file types are allowed: png, jpg, gif, ogg, and zip.
Request: Please add .mov to the list of uploadable file types. --David 16:21, 10 Oct 2005 (EST)
Request: Please add .pdf to the list of uploadable file types. --AndyB 17:50, 10 Oct 2005 (EDT)
The maximum file size for a single upload is 100MB.
If either of these restrictions cause problems, let Michael or Spencer know, and we can change them.
Also:
MediaWiki assumes that zip files are images, so if you upload a file named "blah.zip", it will be at "Image:Blah.zip". This is not a problem. However, when linking to a file, make sure to use [[:Image:Blah.zip]] instead of [[Image:Blah.zip]]. The extra colon at the beginning makes it into a link, rather than an inline image. Some browsers don't like it if you have a 50MB unrecognizable image trying to draw in a page.
