About this MoinMoin Wiki

A WikiWikiWeb is a collaborative hypertext environment, with an emphasis on easy access to and modification of information. This wiki can also link to InterWiki space.

MoinMoin is a Python WikiClone, based on PikiPiki. The name is a common German slang expression explained on the MoinMoin page. If you run a Wiki using MoinMoin, please add it to the MoinMoinWikis page. Contributed code is on the MacroMarket, ActionMarket and ParserMarket pages. For more details and further topics, see the MoinMoin page.

You can edit any page by pressing the link at the bottom of the page (you have to set up an account in UserPreferences first). Capitalized words joined together form a WikiName, which hyperlinks to another page. Clicking on the title searches for all pages that link to the current page. Pages which do not yet exist are highlighted: just follow the link and you can add a definition.

To learn more about what a WikiWikiWeb is, read about WhyWikiWorks and the WikiNature. Also, consult the WikiWikiWebFaq. And see this a handy reference page on formatting MoinMoin lists.
