Hi Dick,
I am going to post some basic data here later that you can copy and paste anywhere you like. The data will be basic templates to help you get started on updating Trojan Reaches per your request. The help function on the top left is a nice place to start learning the wiki architecture / geography and a simple Google search will render all kinds of beginner PDF's and guides.
I used such guides a number of times when I started, but honestly the "edit" function is pretty straight forward. Just write. And update. It comes with practice. Use the "View History" function to see how other people have created and modified entries over time. I will be overlooking your edits and guiding them as you get going so use that "View History" function to see what I or other senior editors do and you will learn. You also have my text / cell phone number to ask direct questions.
As is common knowledge, Matt and Mongoose do not allow porting of their data to the Wiki so we can only use it under "fair use" and as selected samples or excerpts ("usually considered a paragraph or less"). Since British and US law differ on copyright and whatnot, some of this is in dispute. Thomas Jones-Low or I will try to step in and help if this is in question so just go and we'll do our best to guide you. Please read the Copyright article to get a better idea about these legal boundaries and guidelines. Don't get nervous, just be productive and the senior wiki people will watch over things. Thomas Jones-Low (TJonesLo) is the senior guy and chief administrator so please follow his lead when he occasionally steps in. And that's about it. Will post templates and instructions later.
Thanks for getting involved! Much appreciated.
Shalom, M.
