GoodStyle Collaboration Tips

• TWiki has a very simple text formatting shorthand. In any case, you won't go wrong if you simply:

• • make up meaningful, reasonably brief Wiki names - it can be a challenge (it'll sharpen you up!)
  • WikiWords has name-creation tips that may help

• If a discussion is going on:
  • separate each follow-up with a space

• • OR, by all means, insert your comment where it seems to fit best:
    • you may want to inset it with a bullet and/or set it in italics so it's clear (always sign and date)

• A good format for a new topic is "dissertation followed by discussion":
  • start with a brief, factual introduction, followed by double horizontal rules

• TIP: Check the source when you want to find out how something is formatted: click Edit on the lower toolbar. To see earlier versions, click More, then check Raw text format and click View revision. A bit of HTML experience can't hurt, but you'll soon see with TWikiShorthand how far that is from necessary.
