Contributing to the Wiki

IMPORTANT: We want all of the links and images on this Wiki to be relative links, both since we'll be migrating it to a different URL and so that nothing breaks when the open source community forks it.
Here's how to do so.

Links: Links are fairly straightforward, here's an example: [another page in the wiki](setup#troubleshooting) which renders in Markdown as another page in the wiki.

Images: Images take a bit more effort since they need to be hosted on the wiki. Here's how to do it:


• Clone the wiki locally with git clone https://github.com/antievictionmappingproject/evictorbook-documentation.wiki.git
• Add images to the /_images folder in the local copy of the wiki repo.
• Commit changes and push the commit with images to the master branch for the wiki.
• Add a link to an image like this: <img src="_images/aemp_logo.png" width="200">

Wiki Tasks

• Migrate the reference documents to the Wiki itself
