=Biology 372: General Ecology class wiki=

Announcements:
include component="page" wikiName="biol372" page="Announcements"

The // What // and the // Why // :

 * I will use this page to post my lecture slides, syllabus, and other useful items and keep the schedule up-to-date
 * This is a collaborative site where each of you can add to or edit (most) any page. You can create pages to:
 * Share and answer questions
 * Discuss ideas
 * Find files, resources, or links
 * Connect with each other or form study groups

The //How// :

 * You can edit just about anything on this wiki. The four exceptions are the " Announcements ," " Schedule ," " Syllabus ," and " Textbook " pages, which are locked from student editing (as is this one).
 * Click on the edit button above on any page to add or edit the contents.
 * Click on the plus next to "Pages and Files" to add a new page. (Use a descriptive page title and note that pages are organized alphabetically be default)
 * If you want to add a file use the "link" or "file" buttons in the editing view
 * If you totally screw up something, we can always "roll back" to a previous version.
 * The help is pretty good; use it if you need!

The rules

 * This is a class website, so keep the focus on the class topics. While you can be social on this wiki, it's not Facebook or Google+, so keep it professional.
 * Always be polite; even if someone is totally wrong, say so in a nice, constructive way.
 * Respect others' contributions and only change them for clarity or correctness.
 * If you have any doubts whatsoever about posting something ask me first!
 * This is a science class: **All files, figures, and text must be properly cited** (original author, date of publication or access, source or website). Quotes must be put in quotation marks!
 * **Just because it is written on the wiki does not mean that it is true!** Use your common sense and check on things that do not seem correct
