<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>If you would like to help by contributing to the MZX Wiki, please keep the following rules in mind.<br /> <br /> 1. If you're unsure about how to use a wiki feature, check how it's done on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikipedia].&lt;br&gt;<br /> 2. Refrain from posting word-for-word from any other sites.&lt;br&gt;<br /> 3. Make sure the information you are submitting is correct.&lt;br&gt;<br /> 4. Try to use wiki code more than html tags.&lt;br&gt;<br /> 5. Make the MZX Wiki interactive by linking articles to others.&lt;br&gt;<br /> 6. Be mindful of the 'minor edit' function and use it well.&lt;br&gt;<br /> 7. Instead of saving an article to view it, use the 'preview' button.&lt;br&gt;<br /> 8. If an article could have multiple names, make redirects for it's easy to find.&lt;br&gt;<br /> 9. Be careful, this wiki requires ''exact'' capitalization for links to work.&lt;br&gt;</div>
