-Wikis are one of the easiest computer systems to learn, really. Hardly a step up from google docs. === Easy for you to say as you are a brilliant data scientist, as are many now finding themselves in our group.  However, you forget you have peeps here, like myself, that don't get it at easily as you expect.===+Wikis are one of the easiest computer systems to learn, really.

 +==== Naming Pages ==== 
 +In naming pages, the name chosen should be very specific to the page topic.  Once a page is created, the name of the page cannot be changed, but must be deleted and recreated.  While page names cannot be changed, page titles may be changed easily.
  
-One thing missed in removing prior discussion is the emphasis on jumping in to add to this wiki.  In the words of Nike, "just do it."  I will be doing the same (Robin, the brain-damaged).+The topic "vaccine research" provides an example of the importance of naming specific to the topic.  A page named "vaccine_research" would be devoted to vaccines in general, but a page named "COVID-19 vaccine_research" would specifically be devoted to COVID-19 vaccines.  Both pages could eventually become foundations for separate encyclopedias.
