Getting set up as a Wiki editor

• Pick a Wiki username: it should be WikiWord that is as close as possible to your Mattermost ID. A WikiWord is a string of letters where the first letter and at least one other letter is a Capital with others lower case. Y Examples would be FredAlkmaar, HansT, ExtremelyKeen, etc.
  • A WikiWord can contain upper and lower case letters, and digits (0,1…9)
  • But it should not contain any spaces or special characters (eg *, $, %, # and friends).
• Create that username at UserRegistrationPage. You must fill out these boxes:-
  • Your first name
  • Your Mattermost ID (eg "@JimVolunteer") in the box labelled Your last name
  • Your e-mail address - this is required so that the password reset mechanism works.
• Go to the Mattermost Wiki Channel and tell us:-
  • Your Wiki username
  • The National Circle, Local Group or other group you're working with.
• The Tech team will add you to the Editors Group, and to this page which lists Wiki Editors for each LG and Circle
