Please feel free to experiment here, after the four dashes below... and please do NOT create new pages without any meaningfulcontent just to try it out!

Tip: Shift-click "HelpOnEditing" to open a second window with the help pages.

Useless wiki. I can't fix a mistake and there is no talk page to point this out. Where is the documentation on how to get an immutable page changed?

Not useless at all, at least your question was read. Look at HelpOnAccessControlLists for more information on 'Access Control' -- d2m

Also, please note that we have had huge problems at times with specific pages getting spammed. To stem that particular bleeding we have protected such pages. If you want a talk page, just create one. I'll be happy to link it in wherever it's appropriate. -- SkipMontanaro

I didn't see any obvious link discussing Immutable pages in the HelpOnEditing page. It would be nice to know what is needed to actually edit an immutable page, or how you contact somebody to make a change. I just emailed the most recent editor of the page, but that didn't seem like the best option.

So I have two requests:

  1. Document how to deal with immutable pages. How do you get a change in them? How do you get the ability to edit them? This should be linked by HelpOnEditing along with any other place that would make sense.

  2. Already Fixed. In BeginnersGuide/NonProgrammers the link to A Non-Programmer's Tutorial for Python should be to http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Non-Programmer%27s_Tutorial_for_Python/Contents

Lists

* titleindex: Implements the listing of all page names as text or (?action=titleindex) or XML . (xml); the main use of this action is to enable MetaWiki.

  • fullsearch: this action is triggered by clicking on the "Go" button of the FullSearch macro (?action=fullsearch&value=HelpOnActions).

  • titlesearch: this action is triggered by clicking on the "Go" button of the TitleSearch macro (?action=titlesearch&value=HelpOnActions).

  • inlinesearch: this implements the inline search for the form fields at the bottom of each page (note that this uses POST requests, so you won't normally see this action in URLs).
  • highlight: highlight the search word when you click on a link in a search result list.
  • diff: display differences between page revisions.
  • info: show meta-data on a page.
  • recall: display an older revision of a page.
  • show: display a page (the default action).
  • refresh: refresh the cached version of a page (currently only used on XSLT-formatted pages).
  • print: show the print-view of a page, which omits the navigational items from the display view.
  • edit: edit this page.
  • savepage: save this page (do not ever use this manually).
  • subscribe: subscribe to a page.
  • userform: save user preferences.

  • bookmark: set bookmark for RecentChanges.

  • raw: send the raw wiki markup as text/plain (e.g. for backup purposes via wget); SystemInfo?action=raw shows the markup of SystemInfo.

  • format: emit specially formatted views of a page.

  • rss_rc: generate a RSS feed of RecentChanges. RecentChanges:rss_rc

  • chart: display charts.

  • export: export the wiki content. [experimental]

  • content: for transclusion into static web pages, this action emits the pure page content, without any <html>, <head>, or <body> tags.

  • links: generates a list of all pages and the links on them, just like LinkDatabase.

  • xmlrpc: Wiki XML-RPC interface, see XmlRpcToWiki.

  • revert: revert to an older version of the page.
  • macro: execute a helper action in an external macro.

Paragraph Indenting

This is a paragraph that is not indented. This is another sentence in the paragraph. Yet another sentence to start another line.

  • This is indented. The sentences will keep coming until it wraps to a new line to see if that line is also indented. This is the new line. Is it also indented? Finally, the whole thing is spell checked.

Faking Description Lists

This came up on the moin-users mailing list. Just trying it out here...

Python

A powerful scripting language written by Guido van Rossum. It's been used for many, many things, and is fantastically better than another language that starts with a 'P' and ends with a 'l'. :-)

Wiki Site
A collaborative site. Wiki members (or anyone, depending on how the wiki is set up) can go into the wiki and add or modify content.
