how do you use the second life wiki

[annarose20]

id like to learn more about sl and i came across the wiki and thought it would be a good guide almost like a wikipedia of sl but im very confused how to use it... i dont see the pages or anything can anyone help?

It's pretty straightforward, actually.  The Main Page contains links to all of the Second Life policies , community resources, and various resources for business and marketing. Most of the wiki is dedicated to resources for creators, though, so you'll find portals to things that scripters and builders use very heavily. In addition to all of the material that is quite easy to get to, there is a mountain of stuff that is buried in odd places that you can sometimes discover with Google.  Most of us who have been in SL for a long time have built up our own collection of important pages in that "hidden" category.

If you are looking for basic "How does SL work?" stuff, though, your best resource is not the wiki but the Knowledge Base, which you get to by clicking on the tab at the top of this page.  Or you ask here.

In addtion to Rolig's excellent answer, if you look on the left side bar you will find a search box.  Type in what you are looking for and a list of wiki pages that might have the info you are looking for is returned,(similar to what happens when you search Google).

Open google search engine. And type something like this
