Tips and tricks
Be bold
At this point in time, the wiki format is still generally new, and therefore unfamiliar for a large majority of the people who visit WikiPagan. If you're reading this and are hesitant about contributing, we encourage you to be bold and join our project! We're not all that concerned about the quality of the articles — not at first, anyway. A wiki's strength is in its members, and the more people participate, the stronger the community becomes.
If someone writes what would be considered an "inferior" article, that's fine! It's always better to have some content (as long as it's on-topic and not patent nonsense) rather than no content at all. Even with an inferior article, it's possible to start rewriting it, to develop it further into something that eventually could become the perfect article.
If you're worried you might post ideas, questions, suggestions or such to the wrong page: don't be! A wiki is a self-correcting system. There are allways editors who will correct your mistakes, move discussions to the appropriate place. You make mistakes and learn from them. It is the best way to learn the wiki way and the layout of WikiPagan.
One more important rule: no one "owns" any of the articles here. There's no specific author who can claim that they wrote all of the articles, so it's perfectly all right to dive right in and add your own ideas to make the article better — as long as you follow the rules, of course!
