I tried to edit a page in DSL-Wiki, but couldn't log in from page:

< http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/wiki/index.php/Special:Userlogin >

it said following:

Quote

There is no user by the name "Anaconda". Check your spelling, or use the form below to create a new user account.

But there wasn't any "form" to make a new user!!
And yes I have cookies enabled. Tried with firefox and IE.
So how can I get an account and edit the wiki??


I wanted to chande the "Language Support" -page:

Quote

When booting DSL with "lang=de" switch, DSL used a kind of German keyboard without Umlauts, i.e. it is a nearly complete QWERTZ-Keyboard where alle keys but ßöäüÖÄÜ work correctly.

This is wrong. Or well it is right IF you use "lang=de" but if you use "de-latin1" Or "fi-latin1" (instead of de or fi) the special characters work just fine.

Exept that the € (=euro) character isn't available, and Shift-4 gives $ instead of ¤...

Euro-character would work if DSL would have fi-latin9 (smetimes fi-latin0, which is the same)

Oh.
seached the forum, and found out that registering is not possible because of a spam-problem.

Sounds like DSL-wiki is in need of a few moderators, who would check each new page (or change) and add them to wiki if they seem OK!

I wolunteer for the job, but 1 isn't enough.

Could also open a email account for DSL-wiki to which all moderators would have access. For example something like DSL_wiki@gmail.com (if it is available)

Heh.. maybe DSL_support@gmail.com would also be a good idea??
if there would be enough supporters..

I would like to post information to the wiki, but don't have enough time to be an admin.

In the interest of helping the public can you set up a public editable wiki?
