Welcome to MoparWiki Build it and they will come The MoparWiki is a brand new concept of having everyone in the Mopar community pull together and help build the biggest and best database of Mopar Knowledge ever assembled. Ultimately, browsers of the Internet will come to the MoparWiki to find information on: Mopar History Mopar Makes Mopar Models Famous Mopar Cars Mopar People – Factory, Dealers, Racers, Designers… Mopar Vendors Mopar Magazines Mopar Clubs and Forums Mopar engines, transmissions, and other drive-train Mopar Innovations, and anything else Mopar New concepts generally take a little time to gather steam of acceptance and participation – but the MoparWiki is well on the way. Hundreds of Wikis have been started, dozens are very well seasoned, and more and more people jump in and help each month. Some add facts like production numbers, others add or improve the story, and yet others dress up spelling or grammatical errors. Build it and they will come. As the MoparWiki grows with the help of a small group of people that have taken the lead, those sitting on the sidelines are now at least promising to jump in and help. We are looking for a group of leaders willing to roll up their sleeves and set an example for the followers, to encourage them to help on this large community project. If you have leadership qualities and would like to be on the ground floor with participating in a project like this – then please jump in. Enough of the Administrative work has been finished to have the site functional. In the weeks ahead while context is being added, the Administrator will be fine tuning to make the site better and better. The MoparWiki is not a project of just one Mopar club – but of the entire Mopar community. That said, MoparStyle registered users currently logged in can contribute some of their knowledge on the subject. The reason for this is that is provided a registration database that gives the Administrator the ability to control spam and vandalism. If you would like to help contribute information to the MoparWiki – please register at www.MoparStyle.com. So please help the Mopar Community with sharing Mopar information that you might have. Don't worry about writing the entire Wiki -- just contribute what information you have. For instance, if you have facts on production numbers or technical specs -- go ahead and add them and leave the pretty words to the Wordsmiths. IMPORTANT: To keep the credibility of the MoparWiki high, please cite the Internet site, book or magazine you posted your information from as a reference. Don’t post facts from just your memory – back it up with a reference citation. Finally, while this may initially look to be overly complicated for the general Internet User, it is not. You do not need to have a lick of programming experience to learn the very simple formatting used to created a standardized look to a Wiki. The Help link in the left side-bar offers real Help that most anyone can understand. The best place to start is your own User page -- (see the link on the left edge of the top NavBar) -- where you can practice by creating your own personal Wiki Page. While there might be an initial 15 minutes of frustration learning -- once learned you will find that it is very simple to use and remember.

MoparWiki Tips Follow these simple tips and you will be a Pro in no time Start with your Member Wiki to practice the simple formatting code. Each member has his own page. A link to yours (assuming you are logged in) is in the top NavBar to the far left. Mine User:Old_Hippie was the first page I created. When Editing, use the "Show Preview", to make sure the changes look right before clicking on the "Save Page". Avoid the Over Use of Bold and Italics The Help link, found in the left side bar, is very rich in easy to understand information. It can walk you through any editing. Click edit on a seasoned page to get an idea on how the editing goes -- but click your browser's BACK link or cancel at the bottom of the page. It is preferable to edit sections over editing the whole page While Edits can be reversed, there will be Zero Tolerance for vandalized pages -- and those doing so will be banned from all sites on the server by Member ID. email address, and IP address. Photos are uploaded from your computer to the server, and then an Image command displays it in your page. Help tells you all you need to know about Uploads, and Image. Display images as thumbs. Again, see Help for a more detailed explaination, or look at the code on a finished page. When quoting facts, list your references at the bottom of the page to establish credibility. If you aren't 100% sure and can't give a reference (can be another web site, a book or magazine) then don't type it. Small errors made by a few reflect poorly on the entire site. If you see a factual error and can cite a reference with the correct information -- make the correction and cite the reference. Feel free to fix spelling and grammatical errors you come across. Naming conventions for wiki names are singular, and Upper and lowercase. IE: Chrysler or Ronnie Sox.

MoparWiki So what's a Wiki Anyway? A wiki is a website that uses wiki software, allowing the easy creation and editing of any number of interlinked (often databased) Web pages, using a simplified markup language. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and to power community websites. The collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia is one of the best-known wikis. Wikis are used in business to provide intranet and knowledge management systems. "Wiki" (English pronunciation: /wiːkiː/) is a Hawaiian word for "fast". "Wiki" can be expanded as "What I Know Is," but this is a backronym. The MoparWiki is a Mopar encyclopedia written collaboratively by many of its readers. It is a special type of website, called a wiki, that makes collaboration easy. Many people are constantly improving MoparWiki, making thousands of changes, all of which are recorded in article histories and recent changes.

How You Can Help MoparStyle Members MoparStyle Members are authorized to edit the pages. Your same log-in to post in the forums, or post free classified ads, will also allow you to edit the wikis. As a matter of fact, each MoparStyle member has his own user page -- which is the best place for them to start with getting a feel for the mark-up text for formatting. If you are not already a MoparStyle member -- we invite you to go to the forums and register to post. It is quick, free, and MoparStyle is the best damn Mopar community on the Internet. Research and Editing Needed Every member of MoparStyle can help somewhere with making the MoparWiki the best Mopar Encyclopedia. Please spend a little time when available to help others looking for answers. Please Preview Before Saving It would be a very big help if you would use the Show Preview more often than the Save Page -- and then use the save only after you are done editing and checking with preview. It helps the editors to look at the updates -- and roll back if necessary. Talk Pages If you challenge the accuracy of the information in a topic -- but can't absolutely back it up with a reference citation -- then use the talk page, so others can find a reference to settle the challenge. Likewise -- if you don't feel comfortable editing the topic itself -- but you feel like you have some valuable information that someone else will find useful when they tackle the topic -- post it in the talk page for the topic.
