Short version of how to register and then contribute:

1. Click "Create Account - so you can contribute" and fill in your "RealName", password, email, abbreviated party and state, click "create your account".

2. Find the email sent to you by SaveTheWorld. Click the link in it. A screen will say "Congratulations...!"

3. Start editing. Rules are designed to limit hostility. Talk Tips are suggestions how to make your contributions persuasive. The Forum#How to use the software shows a few cool things you can do with a little bit of code. Template has words and codes you can copy and paste. The Forum#Ways you can contribute shows ways you can contribute: from the simplest, entering a comment on the "discussion" page, to adding corrections, more evidence, argument, etc to main pages, to starting new articles.

Detailed version of how to register and then contribute:

Here you will learn how to create your account, and how to make the simplest type of contribution - on the "discussion" page of any article.

Creating your account.

1. In the upper right of screen at www.talk.saltshaker.us/savetheworld, click "Create account - so you can contribute" in upper right of screen.

3. Enter "JoeShucks" at "RealName(WithoutSpaces)"

4. Enter password and email (chinsey - Pilgrim)

5. Enter "I-AL gold digger" at "Your Political Party & State"

6. Click "Create your account"

7. The screen says "Welcome, JoeShucks! A confirmation code was sent to your email address. This code is not required to log in, but you will need to provide it before enabling any email-based features in the wiki. Your account has been created. You can change your SaveTheWorld preferences if you wish. Return to Main Page." So I go to my email.

8. I click the first link, I think it was, in the email. It opens up a screen in the browser that congratulated me. Then I was able to edit.
