There is a Firefox Extension for editing the wiki, which is very useful.

If you are a poor speller there is also a Spell-checker Extension for Firefox, and alternatively a plugin available for Internet Explorer.[1]

Consider creating MetaWikiPedia:Template for text that is often used. Templates could be used to make menus, headers, and footers. The main WikiPedia use them a lot. For example: Help Footer.

Some common templates here are:

  • {{stub}} which marks a page as being a stub and lists it in the page
  • {{cleanup}} which marks a page´s layout as requiring attention.

You can use JTidy to convert HTML snippets to Wiki syntax.
