About
- Main article: AoPSWiki:About
What makes AoPSWiki different from other math-related wikis and web resources is that the AoPSWiki is more involved in problem-solving techniques than most other math dictionaries or math encyclopedias (which are usually written on the level of professional mathematicians).
Getting Started
- The AoPSWiki tutorial contains basic information about editing the wiki, including general syntax help.
- To begin uploading and adding solutions to contest problems, take a look at AoPSWiki:Contest Problems Standards.
- Different namespaces include the talk, template, and category namespaces. Each serves to a different purpose.
- Learn what AoPSWiki is not a place for.
- For other information regarding wikis, see the MediaWiki help contents.
