Our new Environment Group Wiki
Hi guys. For anyone who's just stumbled upon this website, this is the online center of operations for the North Sydney Boys High School environment group. We welcome anyone from any regional schools, as well as any well-meaning strangers who may be able to help us make this website a thorough, informative and tidy place. Contact any admin/mod here for the password to join up, or you can participate as a guest.
It's been a group priority for a while to set up an online repository for our team where we can discuss, organize and collaborate on our many projects, and to show other schools about our group and what we're up to. The website team has been throwing around ideas for how to best implement this for a while now, and we decided to implement a wiki framework so you guys can upload and grab information, even as we work to make this website attractive and efficient.
What needs to be done
To begin with, there's some global group stuff that needs to be taken care of: pages for the SEMP, what to put on the "about us" page, etc. If you can help with this please head over to the forums and tell us, or if you know how jump right into it and edit it yourself.
Also, we obviously need you to start creating and editing pages. We want pages for every team, and for the larger projects and events. We also need each meeting to be logged — George Xue seems to be in charge of this. Make sure you include plenty of links between pages and add tags for each page you write so the wiki can easily be navigated.
You also have free reign to edit any pages that need updating or are incorrect. Use common sense when deciding what to edit, and please read the notes of the people before you to ensure your edits don't conflict. (Incidentally, you should always note your changes and the reason for them when editing).
If you want to discuss projects or events or talk about aspects of the wiki itself, head over to the forums, where you can create new threads of discussion and reply to others. Depending on the activity of the forums and the wiki, we may need moderators with more permissions to keep things running smoothly — if you're interested, tell us.
NOTE: although we want to be easily accessible, we require a certain level of page quality. It has become necessary to point you to this page to make sure we get nice, consistent, functional pages.
This is a small video that tells you how wikis work!

We're Working on it!
Should you encounter any showstopping or minor bugs, please remember that we're working on this as you're using it. Log any glitches or feature requests in the forums and we'll try and sort things out for you. The "report a bug" link at the bottom of the page is for reporting bugs with the wiki engine itself only.
