HomepageTemplate
This is simply a template, made from my homepage (starcraft.man) for new users. Feel free to do with the markup as you like, replace of course generic placeholders. To see my real page, click here, compare the source and you'll quickly see how to do things. For more information on wiki editing see here. Be creative, see other people's pages and make it your own by altering it.
To embed a picture at top of page (or elsewhere) host it on an image service, and then put it inside brackets, see source for example. The line has been commented out with two ## in front of it, this tells the wiki to ignore everything after it, it allows people to leave annotations or notes just for editors that do not display. If you want to use an image, insert a link into brakets replacing rest of text and remove # signs.

About Me
Describe yourself. What do you do in your spare time, what kind of computer and linux experience do you have? Tell as much as you feel comfortable, we don't need to know exactly where you live, we don't do stalking. Maybe you want to sub divide it into sections if it gets long.
Team Memberships
List memberships you have or are apprenticing in (i.e. if your a padawan in Beginners Team). - Bullets are good for lists.
Contributions to the Ubuntu Community

Testimonials
Note: Testimonials are for when your considered for membership in restricted teams and must be voted upon. Say Ubuntu Membership, the Beginners team, etc... Testimonials from established members on your good work go a long way. This note is just for reference.
