'''The wiki belongs to you.''' Feel free to use it to post useful information about some aspect of [[Williams College]]. It works pretty well for biographical sketches, for quick and dirty home pages for [[List of student groups|clubs]] and classes, and for how-to articles explaining how to do something cool or interesting.

WSO/wiki is hosted by [[Williams Students Online]] and is not officially related to the college. It uses [http://wikipedia.sourceforge.net/ MediaWiki], the same software that powers the free and famous [[Wikipedia:Main page|Wikipedia]]. A Wiki is a site with many informative articles that anyone can edit. Feel free to contribute! We want this site to become a definitive source of information about Williams. Articles, biographies, stories, and how-to's are welcome, and on nearly any subject: buildings, people, organizations, classes, computing, hiking, anything of, about, or near the college. To edit an article, click "Edit this page" at the bottom of the article. To create a new article, there first needs to be a link to it; you can edit an existing, related article to create that link. You will probably want to consult [[Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page|Wikipedia's editing guide]] to learn the proper syntax.  Feel free to experiment in the [[Sandbox]].
