 1. '''Be a registered user.''' [[http://wiki.calefaction.org/WikiHome?action=login|Log in]] or [[http://wiki.calefaction.org/WikiHome?action=newaccount|register a username]] to make changes.
 1. '''Tread with care.''' Play in the WikiSandBox or get HelpOnEditing if you're unfamiliar with how to edit, or read HelpForBeginners if you're new to wikis in general. A good place to start would be to create your homepage after registering.
 1. '''Respect others' work''' by building on it, or engaging in discussion first if fundamental changes are required.

That's all :)

 * Configure email to allow page subscriptions/forgotten password reset
 * Get a better handle on page macros
 * install [[http://moinmo.in/MacroMarket/Color2|Color2]] for colored text
 * Make page templates:
  * User Homepage
  * D&D location page
 * File upload form
 * Style footnotes
 * Linking to "tel:" URIs doesn't work. I think this could be fixed by changing the value of `url_schemas`, as described in HelpOnConfiguration
 * Can someone make a favicon? Here's a first attempt: {{attachment:BtTempleton/CalefactionFavicon.png}}
 * Fix your logo css -- ClintonEbadi
  * Inserting manual newlines to avoid covering page content with the logo is a sign of bad style ;) If you want to keep the logo floating into the content area you have a few options... (installing firebug makes it pretty easy to mess around with the css in the browser with immediate effect welcome to the future).
  * Add `clear: left` to either `#page` or `#content`. `#page` is uglier: the page border also moves below the logo. In either case there is some whitespace to the right of the logo.
  * Add `clear: left` to at least `div.contents`. This would solve the immediate issue of obscured TOC lines, but then what about e.g. the horizontal rule below a heading and other cases?
  * Add `clear: left` to `#content div`. I'm not sure what the overall effect of that would be, but it ''would'' make most things that need to clear around the image do so.
  * Another suggestion: Move the logo (and search box?) into the sidebar, something like [[http://communitywiki.org/|CommunityWiki's]] layout.
 * Hierarchy is anti-wiki :( Is there some context in which you'd want to discuss a non-software-related "generic window manager"? If not, why the rename? Subpages may make sense for self-contained projects but they inhibit easy linking
  * There is no such thing as antiwiki except nonwiki. Categorizing it exposes the upstream trees to the user for easy viewing; is this not also a goal of wiki, of easily interrelating topics? Also, I guess I should reply to this comment on your user page instead of below if hierarchy is antiwiki :)
