+Editing for the New Greeters wiki is simple. First off, all articles should be written in such a way that they mesh with the existing OpenUru.org wiki.  That said, contribute however you would to any other wiki; but keep in mind that other users of the OpenUru wiki may want to link to your article in the future. In other words, aside from walkthroughs, keep it wiki-neutral.
