We're trying to categorize the major articles to make Willipedia easier to browse. To add an article to a category, just add '''<nowiki>[[</nowiki>Category: ''category-name'']]''' to the top of the article, and it will show up in the appropriate index.
  
We've integrated the Wiki log-in system with WSO's and the College's password systems. If you want to log in to the site, you'll have to use one of those account names. Anonymous edits are still permitted. --[[User:Emiller|Emiller]]
