Revision as of 21:51, 17 February 2006

You are welcome to contribute to MoodleDocs. Find something that can be improved, either in content, grammar or formatting, and fix it!

Contributing to MoodleDocs

If you've not done so already, please create an account or login.
Please note that all contributions are released here under GNU Free Documentation License 1.2.
Moodle 1.6 will have a button on each page that links to pages in the wiki with the same path as the pages in Moodle. You can see this already on moodle.org and, from an administrator's perspective, on the Moodle demo site.
Please note that the Moodle help files will remain in each language pack and so their text need not be included in this documentation.
You are welcome to create pages for additional documentation. Simply type [[New page]] and follow the link to start editing the new page. Please choose a short name (just one or two words) and capitalize the first word only.
You are encouraged to illustrate documentation with screenshots. Please refer to the style guide for further information.

Inter-language linking

Please add inter-language links between core category pages and link pages in different languages. Simply type [[es:Corresponding page title in Spanish]] in the English MoodleDocs or [[en:Corresponding page title in English]] in the Spanish MoodleDocs. Links will appear automatically in the "In other languages" block.

Documentation discussions

In general, please use the Documentation forum in Using Moodle for discussions about the documentation.
For comments about a particular page, and/or short discussions, please use the corresponding talk page (click on the page comments tab). Please sign and date your talk page contribution by typing four tildes ~~~~.
