Introduction
HRVA Wiki is a community edited site about Hampton Roads, Virginia. We are aiming for a place to record Hampton Roads culture, places, spots, current events — everything! We want to increase collaboration, local media, open data and knowledge sharing across the region. This is a grassroots initiative forming right here in Hampton Roads. We need editors and subject leaders to help build content.
Let's get started.
Getting Started
- What is a Wiki? - A wiki is a linked set of pages which anyone can edit and expand.
- Creating an account - In order to edit pages, you must first create an account. It is a really good idea to use your real name when signing up because it helps start the process of establishing identity here with other editors. For example, JohnSmith.
