Hi,
I'd like to announce some changes in the people who help me with the wiki.
Jay Yourch is retiring as he is really busy at the moment. I'm really
grateful for all the help he gave me for a number of years. Besides helping
with technical issues including making us more secure and creating our
first thumbnails, he also added many beautiful pictures and text for a lot
of the wiki pages (especially Narcissus hybrids, Crinum and Crinum hybrids
and Zephyranthes hybrids, but many others as well.) And he recruited some
of his friends to add pictures too.
Linda Foulis is taking some time off, but hopes to be able to help again in
the future.
David Pilling is now providing technical support. And my Lithuanian helper
is still willing to answer questions and provide help as well. Nhu Nguyen
continues to help me in multiple ways.
Although we continue to find things that need correcting on the wiki, I'm
now ready to allow others to add to it again. We have decided to start over
with the approved users. So if you wish to be able to add images and edit
text and are willing to learn the new system, contact me privately. Next
week I'll send out the new password and instructions. Most of the markup
for the new wiki is different from the old wiki, but there are Gui Buttons
to help you. Some things are easier (once you learn how to do them.) I will
still be correcting things and will help people learn the new system, but
please don't send me your pictures and ask me to add them to the wiki for
you. I need to catch up on all the things I've neglected while I've worked
on the conversion. There may be people who are willing to add pictures for
others once they learn the new system.
