Welcome!

OlpcProject.png

Welcome to the One Laptop per Child wiki. Please make yourself at home; read through the Table of Contents and FAQ, and take a look around. If you need a general wiki-tutorial, Wikieducator has some excellent ones. We also hang out on IRC - my nick is mchua, and I am often around #olpc-content.

Some possible pages of interest:

Check your preferences and be sure you verify your email address and turn on email notification if you'd like it -- you can find out when your talk page, or any page on your watchlist, is modified. You may want to upload a photo or information about yourself to your userpage (see Lauren's and Xavi's pages for good examples).

If you have a particular interest or project in mind, go ahead and start it! Feel free to leave me a note on my talk page if you have further questions, need help finding your way around, have a cool idea for a project, or just want to chat. You can also call, text, or email me anytime; contact information is on my user page.

Glad to have you here!

Re: editing

Regarding Wiki cleanup - go for it! Anything you want, although before applying huge overhauls to things like the front page it's usually good to drop a line to the original author (or latest major contributor). But even with those, ask forgiveness, not permission. ;) Mchua 02:01, 23 January 2008 (EST)

Thanks for your blog post!

Your writeup on the OLPC Chicago meeting was spectacular - thanks for blogging! The IMSA kids are super excited (and happily surprised) that people thought so highly of their projects. :) We'd also love to have you cover more Chicago-area grassroots news for the upcoming weekly 'zine, if you're interested - let me know.

Cool, like this? KayTi 12:19, 28 January 2008 (EST)

I agree the editing help is a bit long, when I have time I'm going to shorten it a bit, maybe go with something more similar to Wikipedia's cheat sheet. Jrock 12:32, 28 January 2008 (EST)
