-This is the wiki area for the collaborative editing of the ''' ''upcoming edition (version 9.0)'' ''' of the PC-BSD Users Handbook.
-'''If you are looking for the current version of the Handbook that covers PC-BSD 8.2''', a PDF version is included as an icon on the PC-BSD desktop. Additional formats including HTML, ODF (for OpenOffice and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.odf#Software other software]),  EPUB (for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_e-book_formats#Supporting_Hardware e-readers]), and PDF formats are available as downloads from the [ftp://ftp.pcbsd.org/pub/handbook/ PC-BSD ftp server]. Translations of the Handbook are added to the ftp server as they become available, its file name indicating the language with a [http://reference.sitepoint.com/html/lang-codes 2-letter ISO code].
-The Handbook grows into a useful resource when users (meaning you!) contribute to it. You don't have to write large sections of the Handbook in order to be a contributor. You also don't need to have a lot of time on your hands. You simply have to create a login account in order to assist with any of the following tasks:
-* proofread existing pages and fix any typos, grammos, or unclearly worded sections.
-* add to sections containing missing, outdated, or incomplete content.
-* update any screenshots that are out of date.
+Want to help out with the wiki? If so, consult the [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents User's Guide] for information on using the wiki.
-* every page has a Discussion tab. You can use this if you would like to suggest further information that should appear in that section of the Handbook.
-* create a new section for content that is not yet covered in the Handbook. If you are not sure where to do this, ask on a semi-related Discussion tab.
-We are emailed whenever edits are made and will contact you for clarification if an edit is unclear. You can also be notified when specified pages are edited--simply click the "my preferences" or "my watchlist" links whenever you are logged into the wiki.
