<br>Check typos and spellings in Documentation you edit. Saying "ahve" in a mail is ok, most people convert that to "have" without even noticing but in documentation it is more important to try to get sepllings right (or american)<br>

<div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt"><div>Hi :)<br><br>I think it is wise for pages to state which release they are written for, especially if there is 'some' coding on the page. However i usually find that only sundry petty changes need to be made, for example a coding line that includes the word "dapper" might need to be edited to read "lucid" because Lucid Lynx, the 10.04, is the latest LTS release.<br>
<br>Yes it would be 'nice' if someone with recent experience using those pages were able to go through and make the tiny changes and then check that the advice still works.<br><br>Obviously the dovecot wiki 'urgently' needs that update because more people appear to be using encrypted partitions now = or is it still only recent Windows converts that bother? Is there any chance of you doing the edit there Jonathon, since you know
the change that is needed but other people might not be so familiar with that page?<div><br><br>Good luck and regards from<br>Tom :)<br></div></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt">

<br>
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. You don't need to follow<br>
any particular process to go about editing the wiki other than using<br>
some best practice. See the WikiGuide [1] for help with using the wiki<br>
correctly. You will need a Launchpad account in order to edit pages.<br>
You are free to edit pages yourself, and you can also Tag [2] pages that<br>
need work to alert others that the page in question is not fully up to date.<br>
