Help
Healthpages.wiki is an open, collaborative platform based on the same MediaWiki [1] software that drives the world's largest online reference, Wikipedia [2]. While traditional wikis contain only text which computers can neither understand nor evaluate, Healthpages.wiki uses semantic annotations that enables wikis to make their knowledge computer-processable and allow wiki to function as a collaborative database.

Registration
When viewing any page on a Healthpages.wiki, you'll find three main navigation elements:
- The sidebar on the left gives you access to important pages in the wiki such as Recent changes or main categories.
- At the top of the page are links (often called tabs) which relate to the page currently displayed: its associated discussion page, the version history, and—most notably—the edit link.
- In the top right corner you'll find user links; as an anonymous user, you'll see a link to create an account or log in (they are the same page). As a logged-in user you have a collection of personal links, including ones to your user page and preferences.
