From CruisersWiki

Welcome to CruisersWiki!

We all look forward to your valued contributions to the Cruising Wiki to help it grow as a useful, free resource for all cruisers around the world. Now you are registered, you can set your personal preferences in "My Preferences" (link at top R/H of page when logged in).

Spend a little time reading the Wiki Help and the Style Guide to gain a better understanding of the Wiki formatting and how to edit articles. Also, please read the Cruiserswiki Copyrights notice, as well as the General Disclaimers (links at bottom of pages) before starting to edit. Then, do add what you can - even correcting grammar and spelling errors in articles is a great help - but do not use the Rich Editor to do so, since there is a problem with it at present. It is easy to see if you are going wrong, since you cannot save your changes to a page without previewing them first.

Use any page's "Discussion" tab (top of page's menu) to ask any questions or make any suggestions about that particular page.

Finally, please note that massive changes by a new editor are liable to be considered spam and the editor will be blocked. Please concentrate on editing pages of the places that you have actually visited. Also please avoid using the "Rich Editor", it does not work well and creates problems.

Again, welcome and have fun! Bring out that hidden "Cruising Guide writer" in you. Athene of Lymington 09:42, 19 December 2014 (GMT)

Tables

Excel tables are not directly compatible with MediaWiki, the language of CruisersWiki. You just have to look at the excel table and recreate it. Look at Table Formatting Help. If you need any specific help do not hesitate to contact me. --Istioploos 13:35, 7 April 2015 (BST)

Albany, Australia

Hank,

We need to revise the Albany, Australia page and make it simpler and shorter. I think the marinas could go on separate pages, many of the bullet items could be headings. Same for the charts. many these can go to the Australia or to the Western Australia pages and then we can refer to them.

Could the weather be covered in the Western Australia page?

Do you have any personal photographs?

I will be more then willing to help with this but I am not familiar with the region. So, if you are willing we can do it together.
