View source for Hitchwiki:Introduction

The [[Hitchwiki]] is a collaborative website for gathering information about [[hitchhiking]] and [[train hopping in the United States|other]] [[boats|ways]] of extremely cheap ways of transport.  It was was inspired by [http://en.wikipedia.org Wikipedia] and by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker's_Guide_to_the_Galaxy Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]. At some point it was left abandoned by its founder, and adopted by [[User:Guaka|Guaka]]. As a hitchhiker you're encouraged to not only read the guide, but also to contribute by adding your knowledge, improving existing pages and starting new ones!

===How to contribute===
Just click <tt>edit</tt>, make your changes and click <tt>Save page</tt>. A good article to start editing or writing is probably your home town. To create new articles you can add <tt>[[</tt> and <tt>]]</tt> around the title of the new article, in some other article, on your user page or even here on the main page. Save the page, click on the red link and start writing a new page. Be '''bold''' about editing, just do it!
If it feels a bit awkard, you can practice in the [[Sandbox]].
