First stab: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Mdev I don't know the Gentoo wiki's style policies, but I do know MediaWiki reasonably well. I did take license to edit for language/linguistic style, but not for substantive comment. Please go through and correct anything that seems broken. It's almost 4:30AM where I am, and I really ought to be sleeping, so I almost certainly mussed something up. Pretty sure I switched styles about halfway through, too. You should find the MediaWiki syntax reasonably accessible; just click 'edit' at the top of the page and compare what the 'raw' form looks like with what the results look like. > > On a tangent, is that a better tutorial on wiki pages anywhere? MediaWiki.org has the best content. Generally, you'd play around in a sandbox page of your own (on whatever wiki site you have an account on) to get a feel for things. -- :wq
