Note that manual content must be kept <i>completely separate</i> from the PD Help pages located in the <tt>Help:</tt> namespace, as they are released under a different, incompatible license (see [[Project:Copyrights]] for details).

| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | There is a lot of content on Meta that should be moved to this site. '''Please do not move pages by hand!''' There is a project to co-ordinate this move at meta [[meta:Meta:MetaProject to transfer content to MediaWiki.org|(here's the link)]] which will give you full details. Once we are in a position to do so, the relevant pages will be moved here in a way that preserves their history.
