Any registered member of the Forum can also use their login details to log into the wiki section of the website. To do this, click on the Log in / create account link at top of the front page. Note: you must log into the wiki section of the site IN ADDITION to the forums. Similarly, to log out from the site, you must separately log out of both the forums and the wiki sections of the Retro Software site.

Once logged into the website, you can edit any of the pages of the website, by simply clicking the Edit link at the bottom of the relevant page. This will take you to an editor page, where you can modify the text displayed on that page. You can also click Watch to be notified of any changes to a particular page, or Discuss to talk with other users about the contents of a page, ask questions about it or make a note of any decisions that have been made.

The wiki section of the website is powered by MediaWiki, the wiki engine behind sites such as Wikipedia. You can find more information, including details of the markup language, relevant to editing MediaWiki pages here:
