== Login and access issues ==
===I have material I want to contribute. How do I obtain access to this website?===
To have your material uploaded, please send a copy of it to our administrator, who will manually upload it to the Desal Wiki's repository. Access to the wiki can also be granted by requesting an account from our administrator.

==Technical issues and bugs==

===I'm using Internet Explorer - is there are problem with the website?===
Due to the way older versions of Internet explorer render webpages, the Desal Wiki does not appear the way it was designed. We recommend that you upgrade to a modern web browser.

==Uploading FAQ==

===I can't upload my image/video/media file onto the Desal Wiki database. What do I do?===
MediaWiki (the software on which the Desal Wiki is built) is currently set to allow certain file types to be uploaded to the database. The list of allowable file types should be listed on the uploads page. If you can't change your file type and still want to upload the file, please contact an administrator.

===What are the RED links?===
A red coloured link means that the wiki page of that link hasn't been created yet. If users believe that their page should exist, double check the link's coding in the edit page. Common mistakes includes misplacing pipe syntax, and forsaking capitalization of letters.

===I just saved my entry, and somehow made a horrible mess of the page.  How can I undo my changes?===
Media wiki saves all entries whenever the 'save page' button is pressed. This allows users to revert to previous entries if needed. This can be performed by clicking 'Page Tools' then select 'History'. Now click 'undo' on the revision that you created - then 'save'.
