&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;The main thing that one needs to know that the wiki is a mess. IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE THIS WAY. The wiki is a database. As such, every entry is a piece of data that can potentially feed into another page and be displayed. It is a sandbox which the entire OSE community community can use for notes, early design, discussions - everything is a go outside of what is clearly spam - such as advertising for Viagra. Otherwise - if the content has anything to do with sustainability, open source, and regenerative developmemt - DO NOT ERASE. It may be just the start of someone&amp;#039;s notes or page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With that said - how does a wiki become useful? Because the wiki is a database - disply of this data can be separated from the data. Some wiki pages may feed into well-formatted pages elsewhere on the wiki. This is why they should not be erased.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Neat, graphical interfaces can be added on top of the wiki in various ways. This is being developed for the OSE wiki. We currently use Dozuki as an external graphical index - see more information on the [[Dozuki]] page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you understand that the Wiki is a database and that there are unseen pages or scripts that can parse the wiki - your heart will be put to rest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you would like to assist this process - you can start new pages that index older information - and submit that for consideration as an edit commit to the wiki administrator at info at opensourceecology dot org.&lt;br /&gt;
