The MusicBrainz Wiki
The MusicBrainzWiki is located at http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/.
When WikiDocs will be implemented you will be able to view the content of this page on the MusicBrainzWebSite without being in the wiki. See WikiDocs for more details.
Status of the Wiki
We ported the wiki to a MoinMoin wiki-engine. See MoinMoinWikiSyntax for changes to the old UseMod syntax. Also you will have to register again with your old WikiName.
This wiki is a permanent WIP (work in progress). The project to RestructureTheWiki is largely complete and we are now RestructuringTheDocumentation. There is information on the StatusOfThisWiki to tell you which parts are stable and which are "in progress". Things will probaly get worse during the time we implement WikiDocs.
When editing this wiki please stick to GoodWikiStyle. You can also use the SandBox (or the other Sandbox) if you just want to test the MoinMoinWikiSyntax.

- Members or the AdminGroup can read, write, revert, and delete all pages. Additionally they can change ACLs (see HelpOnAccessControlLists) and edit special pages, like
