If you want to add information about your favourite spot, your country or anything else, here you find information on how to do so.
 
 
'''First''', you can just search for the city or country of your choice. If you get redirected to an article, it seems that information about your city or country already exists. For adding information, just click on the <tt>edit</tt> button at the top of the article. Then you'll find yourself a box with text where you can easily add your information.
 
 
If no article exists about your destination city or country, the search will ask you if you want to create a new article. Just click on ''create this page''. Tada!
 
 
Don't worry too much about layout and stuff, there are a lot of other hitchhikers who check and correct articles if necessary.

Hitchwiki Tutorial
Introduction - Editing - Formatting - Links - Talk - Add an image - Add a page

Welcome

Welcome at hitchwiki. Great that you found your way to this wiki!

Did you ever asked yourself what this is all about? Hitchwiki is a collaboratively edited guide to which you can contribute. This tutorial will help you to become a happy hitchwiki contributor.

The following pages will give you a short guidance about the style and content of hitchwiki articles, the hitchwiki community and important hitchwiki policies and conventions. Keep in mind that it's fine whatever you are doing, don't think too much about the rules, but just do it. There are enough other hitchwiki contributors who will edit your mistakes to make the best out of your information.

This is a basic tutorial, not an extensive manual. There are links to sandbox pages where you can practice what you're learning. Try things out and play around! Nobody will mind if you mess up and experiment in these practice areas.
