-Place to list questions for session on how to get the most out of the Coop wiki
-  * **how do I move a page? And are there conventions we should follow to notify people when we *do* move pages?**
-  * **how do I archive a page if I am unsure whether I should delete it?**
-     * cf z_archive namespace; rename pages to "old_namespace_pagename"
-  * **are there any tricks for making tables easier? (yes)**
-     * cf http://donaldmerand.com/code/2012/05/08/convert-a-spreadsheet-to-dokuwiki-format.html
-     * there is a conflict between sortable tables (which we currently use) and the wysiwyg table editor - if there is enough demand, we can test the wysiwyg editor on our staging server for the wiki, and if it is _that_ much easier, maybe implement instead of the sortables plugin.
-  * **how can I get two column display on a page?**
-    * cf "wrap" plugin - https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:wrap
-  * **what are some of the macros and other extensions I can use to make wiki pages work better?**
-    * cf https://wiki.libraries.coop/doku.php?id=wiki:syntax&do=admin&page=extension
-    * e.g. https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:include
-    * embed raw html (use sparingly) https://www.dokuwiki.org/wiki:syntax#embedding_html_and_php
-    * ""~~NOTOC~~"" and "~~NOCACHE~~""
-    * there is a HUGE number of other ones at https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugins - maybe browse to see if there are some that could be useful, and we can try out on the staging server first.
-  * **how do you do that slideshow trick?**
-    * cf https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:s5
-    * put ''{slideshow}'' at the top of the page, and ''{/slideshow}'' at the end; top level headings represent new slides
-  * **how do you create the Check boxes in list format (To Do list?)**
-    * cf https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:todo - basically put ''<todo>'' tags around your items
-  * **There are two namespaces on pages like [[nnels:start|this one]], one for pages that have a :start namespace, and another for pages which do not. What are some good conventions to use when creating a new page?**
-    * so to create a namespace you create a new page but with a trailing colon, like newspace:
-    * however, ideally you would create a new namespace by creating a new index page first, like newspace:start. Any page named "start" is the default index page for a space.
-    * to create a new page, easiest way is to simply edit the URL and create a new path. Also easy to create a link on an  existing page, then click through to it.

-  * basic dokuwiki syntx - https://www.dokuwiki.org/wiki:syntax (sorry we broke the link in the new theme, we will fix this)
