== How to Contribute ==
<strong>This is a wiki, so anyone can contribute</strong>. No account is needed—though you are encouraged to create one—and all changes can be rolled back, so edit with a free hand.
=== Making Edits ===
You can make edits in one of two ways: by clicking 'Edit', which enables [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG WYSIWYG] (or visual) editing, ala a wordprocessor. Alternately, you can click 'Edit source', which allows you to edit the wiki markup in plaintext (as shown below). Use whichever method you prefer. '''It takes a little longer to open the editing window in visual mode''' because the server has to translate wiki markup to html on the fly. So be patient. If things are too sluggish, you can switch over to 'Edit source'.

Wiki [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting formatting/markup] is very straightforward, and all you need to do is mimic the current entries since formatting is standardized.
If programs or faculty have been overlooked—which is assuredly the case—you are encouraged to add them, even if you are not a member of that department. Also, information will date rapidly, so by all means help keep things up to date.
=== Wiki Program Pages ===
Every program listed also has a separate Wiki Program Page where additional information can be provided to prospective students. While the style and format of this main page should be kept consistent, individual Wiki Program Pages can take any form whatsoever. To edit one of these pages, simply follow the Wiki Program Page link underneath the department listing of interest and edit that page.
The following programs have added considerably to their Wiki Program Pages. Feel free to mimic them.
