* Make the basewiki be full of symlinks to pages that should be the same
in the doc wiki. This will allow direct edits to alter the base wiki without manual munging.

-# Help on formatting text
-
-Text on this wiki is, by default, written in a form very close to how you
-might write text for an email message. This style of text formatting is
-called [[MarkDown]], and it works like this:
-
-Leave blank lines between paragraphs.
-
-You can \**emphasise*\* or \*\***strongly emphasise**\*\* text by placing it
-in single or double asterisks.
-
-To create a list, start each line with an asterisk:
-
-* "* this is my list"
-* "* another item"
-
-To make a numbered list, start each line with a number (any number will
-do) followed by a period:
-
-1. "1. first line"
-2. "2. second line"
-2. "2. third line"
-
-To create a header, start a line with one or more `#` characters followed
-by a space and the header text. The number of `#` characters controls the
-size of the header:
-
-# # h1
-## ## h2
-### ### h3
-#### #### h4
-##### ##### h5
-###### ###### h6
-
-You can also make the first two levels of heading by underlining text with
-equals or dash:
-
-heading 1
-=========
-
- heading 1
- =========
-
-heading 2
----------
-
- heading 2
- ---------
-
-To create a horizontal rule, just write three or more dashes or stars on
-their own line:
-
-----
-
-To quote someone, prefix the quote with ">":
-
-> To be or not to be,
-> that is the question.
-
-To write a code block, indent each line with a tab or 4 spaces:
-
- 10 PRINT "Hello, world!"
- 20 GOTO 10
-
-To link to another page on the wiki, place the page's name inside double
-square brackets, so you would use `\[[WikiLink]]` to link to [[WikiLink]].
-
-To link to any other web page, or to an email address, you can just put the url in angle brackets: <<http://ikiwiki.kitenet.net>>, or you can use the form
-\[link text\]\(url\)
-
-----
-
-You can also use [[PreProcessorDirective]]s to do additional cool stuff.
-
-[[if test="enabled(smiley)" then="""
-Also, because this wiki has the smiley plugin enabled, you can
-insert [[smileys]] and some other useful symbols.
