This PCUG Information Wiki can be edited by any PCUG member using their normal PCUG/TIP username and password to login.
To do this, select the log in link at the top right of the page to login (a wiki account will be created automatically the first time you log in).
You are encouraged to contribute information, especially to the Activities_and_Opportunities and Technical Info sections, as this is very much in the spirit of the group's policy of Users Helping Users.
If you are new to contributing to wiki's, please see our guide to Getting Started Editing Wiki Pages. Otherwise, further useful links are provided in navigation Help page.
Contributions can range from small additions; to corrections and extensions to current pages; through to creating entirely new pages on relevant topics. For these, either edit an existing page, or add your new page into the relevant location on one of the main navigation pages.
If you wish to make other than minor, editorial, changes to key navigation pages, such as the Main Page or various pages immediately below it, please create a draft of your proposed changes on a new page, and then ask for this to be reviewed by the website committee. Please note that we do not wish to discourage such proposals, but because they can significantly affect the usability of the site for all, and because we have spent some time creating the current structure, we do wish to encourage discussion and trial of such changes first.
