This might seem pedantic to more experienced people in the team,
but I was confused by the first paragraph after the list in the
New Pages section of WikiGuidePageCreation page. It says:<br>
<br>
You can manually specify a page name to make the title displayed
on the page more descriptive and easier to read. For instance,
compare the title <i>Resizing Your Photos</i> with <i>Photos/ResizingPhotos</i>.
To do so, insert #title Page Name as the first line in a
document.<br>
<br>
The second sentence in particular confused me. After a few
readings, I think it means something like:<br>
<br>
</font></font><font size="-1"><font face="Helvetica, Arial,
sans-serif">By default, the page title is the page name, but y</font></font><font
size="-1"><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">ou can
manually specify a title displayed on the page to make it more
descriptive and easier to read. For instance, <i>Resizing Your
Photos</i> would be clearer than <i>Photos/ResizePhotos</i>.
To change the title from the default, insert #title Page Name as
the first line in a document.<br>
<br>
I'm happy to make the change to this myself, but I haven't found
an example of where this has been done to check my
understanding. Am I correct?<br>
<br>
I'll keep looking through the pages that are marked as needing
work to fix anything I'm confident about.<br>

Hi ubuntu-doc-team!<br>
<br>
My name is Tiffany Antopolski. I am interested in
contributing to Ubuntu Wiki Documentation. I have done some
documentation work with Gnome. This past year I have
contributed to Evince documentation as well as the Gnome-Help
for Gnome 3.0 in the form of Mallard documentation. Ubuntu is
the only distribution I use, so I think it would be only
natural to contribute to the Ubuntu Documentation Team.<br>
<br>
I am a third year Software Engineering student, and have found
that docs are a great way to get involved with such an awesome
community. I am also in the process of writing up a Summer of
Code application to start contributing in the form of
development.<br>
<br>
I have often relied on Ubuntu Wiki Documentation to help me
figure things out, especially when I was first starting to use
Ubuntu. <br>
<br>
I was wondering if there are any particular areas that need
attention, or a to do list I can look to for a place to start?<br>
<br>
My irc name is mimico. I will be on #ubuntu-doc. <br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

I worked with Tiffany a bit at the Gnome documentation
hackfest. She's contributed so much to Gnome docs - we're
really lucky to have her looking to contribute to Ubuntu docs.
<br>
<br>
Tiffany, with regards to the wiki, there is a page [0] that
provides links to pages that need work in one way or another.
You can peruse the links off of that page and update pages
that interest you and need work.<br>
<br>
I'm sure that there are additional pages which need to be
tagged as applicable to unsupported versions, style cleanup,
etc. You can mark any pages that have "issues" with the
appropriate tags, too.<br>
<br>
Finally, if there's a page that just doesn't exist yet, or a
topic that interests you, you can feel free to write or update
wiki pages on those topics, too.<br>
<br>
If you have any questions, we're on #ubuntu-doc on the
freenode irc network (though the channel can be kind of quiet
at times), or you can post questions to the mailing list.<br>
<br>
Thanks, Tiffany!<br>
<br>
