You are welcome to contribute content and edit existing content in the Human Nature Dictionary!

The dictionary has been beset by spambots recently, so I've disabled the editor-account-creation feature for the moment.

Please send me edits and I'll implement them, or I can manually add you as an editor.

Thanks for participating!

-Here's a brief intro --
+The dictionary has been beset by spambots recently, so I've disabled the editor-account-creation feature for the moment.
-First you'll have to create an account and log in. Click the "Create account" link in the upper right corner of the browser window (near the "Log in" link). Follow the instructions to create an account on the Human Nature Dictionary wiki.
+Please send me edits and I'll implement them, or I can manually add you as an editor.
-Once you have an account and are logged in, you can visit any page in the wiki, click the "Edit" tab, and make edits.
-Here's a very helpful editing guide https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Editing_pages
-Once you're familiar with editing, the quickest way to add a new word and its definition is on the [[Browse]] page.  Visit that page, click the "Edit" tab, and you'll be in the MediaWiki page editor.  You can format your newly added words and definitions based on the way words and definitions are already listed there.
-Creating a new page for a new definition is a little more involved. I'll work on a how-to and post that here in the coming days.
-Let me know if you have questions, or if things go awry, I'll be happy to advise/help.
 Thanks for participating!<br/>
