Before anything: the wiki attitude
The wiki is a living, evolving and especially non-linear tool. Don't be afraid to bring your contribution by trial and error! The success of this wiki will come through an active participation to the sharing of knowledge.
The more we are, the more we wiki ;)

Page de personne

Les pages de personnes répertorient toute les autres personnes que l'on pourraient vouloir documenter, sans qu'ils/elles aient nécessairement leur compte d'utilisateur dans le wiki. On y retrouve donc des informations de contact de cette personne, ainsi que les rôles joués par cette personne dans le cadre du domaine décrit par le wiki. Il est à noter que les utilisateurs du wiki devraient aussi avoir leur page de personne, comme il est tout aussi pertinent d'avoir leur information de contact. Afin d'apprendre à nous connaître et connaître les personnes impliquées dans le mouvement, il se peut que votre page personne soit déjà crée. Vous pouvez trouver cette liste par le menu de gauche, à la page Personnes. Si vous y êtes déjà, vous êtes invités à corriger d'éventuelles erreurs et à mettre vos coordonnées (professionnelles) à jour.
