There have been a number of posts since the forum started which indicate that there are advanced features available for us to use, but which arent easyily known about. eg setting up forums, editing book sources etc. For example neither of these is clear in the Mediawiki user guide. Can we generate a list of similar features. or can someone point me in the direction of a listing? For example what other special pages are there? What else is under Forum: and Project: headings? Are there other such headings? As aleways. all help warmly appreciated.Lifeartist 15:37, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Sounds like a good idea... why not go ahead and start it? You have the first two items to add :) -- sannse (talk) 17:44, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
