=====The basics===== Hello! I am the current wiki manager Chris Eisenhart. I was a student in the BME235 spring 2015 class. During our class the wiki grew so large that we lost track of it. This caused us to repeat a number of analyses, which wasted much of our precious compute power. I am currently the wiki manager, and am working hard to ensure this doesn't happen again! ====Modifying the wiki==== First please add yourself as a contributor to the [[contributors::contributors | contributors]] page. While you are dong this note the different 'namespaces' being used. Namespaces are equivalent to UNIX directories, so much so that we structure our publicly accessible data after the wiki namespaces! After adding yourself to the contributors page, please take a look at the [[about_the_page::style_guide | wiki style guide]]. The style guide explains general rules for modifying the wiki. Please be mindful of these rules, the wiki managers take extra care (and time!) to ensure that there as few as possible so please follow them! ====Site managers==== The wiki always needs at least one manager, the current manager is Chris Eisenhart (ceisenha@ucsc.edu). The site manager has extra privileges that lets her or him quickly modify the wiki. There should be a limited number of site managers, this will prevent them from stepping on each others toes (no more than 1 for every 10 people). Site managers should **not** change content. Site managers are responsible for the hierarchy and namespaces of the wiki. As the wiki grows new namespaces will need to be added. The site managers must oversee the rest of the wiki modifications. This essentially means that the site managers are responsible for hounding the rest of the class to put their pages in the correct namespace.
