MadaCamp.com - a wiki about Madagascar
At first impression, the name “MadaCamp” may come across as something to do with camping in Madagascar. However, this is far from the only topic that can be covered here. Instead, MadaCamp is a methaphor for everything about Madagascar presented within one campsite, so to speak. Anything about Madagascar can be published here as well as edited by anyone.
To create a new page, point your browser to a page location that does not necessarily already exist (eg. madacamp.com/Zebu) and click the tab named create to begin editing. If you would like to experiment editing first, go to the so-called sandbox which is a page intended for testing purposes.
To add your own images to this wiki, first sign up and thereafter click on the Upload file link in the toolbox in the left column.

This wiki includes Google Map functionality with a map authoring tool for adding satellite maps to any pages. To create a Google Map, click on the map button 
above the editing box for the map editor to appear. Pan and zoom to the region you wish to display. When done, copy the generated <googlemap>...</googlemap> code into the edit box and save the page. The map editor can also be used to add place-markers, info-bubbles, pathways and regions onto the map images.
This wiki also allows YouTube and Google videos to be embedded directly on pages, see how to here. For further tips on how to edit a page, click on Help in the toolbox on the left or consult the User's Guide of the wiki software.
