Note for Posting to Wiki

If two people edit the same page at the same time, the wiki will keep track of both sets of changes.
You will be notified if someone else is editing the page at the same time.
If there are no problems in the students' changes, both sets of edits will be put on the page.
If the changes do conflict, the following will happen:
  1. When the first user saves his changes, the second user will receive a notification of this and will be able to view the changes.
  2. The second user can view the changes to remove the conflict if she chooses.
  3. If there is still a conflict when the second user saves the page, she will be notified that she is about to overwrite the first user's changes.
  4. She will have the option to continue or cancel.

This means YOU NEED TO CHECK TO BE SURE YOU ACTUALLY POSTED TO THE WIKI!
