** [[Help:Editing]] - you can edit this website. Did you know that?
** "''Introduction to Wikipedia''": ([[wikipedia:Introduction]]) - If you are unfamiliar with the wiki concept, this is a very good primer on the subject. But be careful; The "Introduction to Wikipedia" is on [[Wikipedia]]. This site ([[electowiki]]) is not affiliated with [[Wikipedia]] or the Wikimedia Foundation (the non-profit that operates Wikipedia). But really, as a beginner, you may not want to leave electowiki.org just yet.
* '''Advanced''' - for people who understand [[wiki]]s, and maybe even [[MediaWiki]] specifically.
** '''[[The electowiki:Help specific to Electowikihandbook]]''' - this is a handbook specific to [[electowiki]]. Much of it was written as we were settling into using this [[Miraheze]]-hosted copy of the old [[Electorama wiki]]

ButA really,lot asof athe beginnerinformation in this handbook is for system administrators and [[PHP]] developers that may be working on the code for one of many [[MediaWiki]] extensions. Many readers may prefer to learn [[Lua]] before learning [[PHP]], youso this link may not wantbe useful to leavethem, electowikieither.org just yet
