Wiki Guidelines

• Bug Reports, and other topics that require a back-and-forth, should be kept in the forums, not the wiki.
• There will probably be more overlap with the help files, especially in terms of troubleshooting, but let's try to keep that overlap low too.
• Minor topics that come up in the forums again and again, but are maybe too esoteric for the help file, would be perfect here.
• Be clear and concise. eg. Try to begin new sections/chapters/pages with a small introduction.
