Well i suppose there is hardly any need of templates to get to know the basic editing ideas in wiki(openSUSE) :).
Basics not, but to ensure unified look and feel, and give authors more time to write about actual topic of their article, instead of reading instructions, applying rules, looking at other pages as template, the set of templates (not in wiki sense, as inserts in other articles) is actually not needed, but required.
Initially when i started with editing i was = to a beginner or less that.The best thing which i can share with you is -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_edit .This can give a little hint or a brief idea on how to get started.And when you are almost thorough just keep on surfing the wiki - (http://en.opensuse.org/Special:Allpages) for minor faults and try to rectify them.And as the time advances you'll slowly and steadily get to know the things around :)
There is difference in will to invest time in formatting experiments between you focused on the wiki alone, and one that is skilled in his field and just wants to put article on the wiki with as little side effort as possible. Such person will use template provided that it exists and its existence is well advertised. Otherwise it may happen that he just walk away instead to write something that our users need. -- Regards, Rajko OpenSUSE Wiki Team: http://en.opensuse.org/Wiki_Team People of openSUSE: http://en.opensuse.org/People_of_openSUSE/About -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-wiki+help@opensuse.org
