If you want to contribute to the MoinMoin help and system pages, you have to do the work on the master wikis. Before you edit pages there, please read this page completely.
The pages in the master wikis go directly into the MoinMoin distribution archive, so please edit them carefully.
Remember, we have multiple wikis:
this wiki, the MoinMoin wiki
depending on the targetted moin version, we have multiple MoinMaster wikis, currently there are:
master18 for moin 1.8.x content: http://master18.moinmo.in/
master19 for moin 1.9.x content: http://master19.moinmo.in/
- (same thing for future moin versions)
The pages in MoinMaster are help and system pages ONLY; wiki user homepages and moinmoin discussion are neither wanted nor allowed there. The MoinI18n/* pages are the base for the PO files used in moin (we have a sync script for that).
If you are a moin newbie, please do not edit those pages except to correct typos - gather some experience with moin before you try to help.
If you edit pages there, try to make them better, but keep in mind that some of those pages are translated to other languages and that translating is much work - so keep your changes to the necessary minimum.
When creating new pages, try to follow the naming schemes and structures you already see there.
Do not rename pages without a very good reason.
Generally, THINK first, then change. If you have questions, please use the MoinMoin wiki, not MoinMaster.
Before being able to edit, create a wiki user account and then add yourself to the page MoinPagesEditorGroup on the master wiki where you want to work. See the explanation there.
