Plymouth Wiki Community Portal

What is a Wiki

History

The concept of a Wiki was fist used in the Wikipedia^[1]by Ward Cunningham in early 1995.[[1]]

An Open Forum

The Plymouth Wiki is an open forum created for the use of the congregation of the Plymouth Presbyterian Church in St. Helens Oregon. It is intended that the site become an organic outgrowth of the Christian love and fellowship of the congregation, and an evangelistic outreach into the community.

Invitation to Participate

Members and friends of the Plymouth Presbyterian Congregation are all invited to participate in the creation and editing of the site content. Sign in, create a name and password for yourself. A good place to start is to create a page for yourself. This invitation extends to the youth of the congregation.

Pick a project

Following this introduction will be a "wish list" of projects. We invite you to pick a project that you are involved with or are willing to do a little research for. Work on the project at a steady pace and write comments, plans and questions in the associated discussion page. Sign your work here in the discussion page by inserting four tildes, (~~~~)

Overview

There will be frequent overview of activity, (see the "Recent Changes" link.) We will answer questions and send advice as comments in the discussion page.
