+====== What are all these icons & stuff? ======
+{{ faqs:about_this_wiki:example_signed_in.jpg?650 }}
+Wiki pages display a lot of extra stuff compared to a normal web page. Here's what it all means.
+If you are using a cell phone, things will look different. You can see the differences [[faqs:about_this_wiki:things_look_different_on_a_cell_phone|here]].
+===== Top Left =====
+{{ faqs:about_this_wiki:example_top_left.jpg?400 }}
+In the top left corner is our logo, name and motto. You can click on the SVCT logo or name to return to the Welcome (home) page.
+**You are here:** Shows you where the page is located within the wiki.
+**Trace:** Lists the recent pages you have viewed. Your most recent page visits are at the end of the list.
+===== Top Right =====
+If you are not signed in, the top line will simply display the //Log In// link.
+{{ faqs:about_this_wiki:example_top_right.jpg?400 }}
+If you are signed in, the first line your real name and login user name.
+{{ faqs:about_this_wiki:example_top_right_signed_in.jpg?400 }}
+If you want to change your real name, email address or password, click on //Update Profile//.
+//Log Out //logs you out.
+//Search //gives you a easy way to find what you are looking for.
+//Recent Changes //will display list of recent changes for the current [[faqs:about_this_wiki:namespaces|namespace]] (area) - the format is a little weird.
+//Media Manager //lets you view all of the images associated with this part of the wiki.
+//Sitemap //lists //**all**// of the pages in this wiki, broken out by [[faqs:about_this_wiki:namespaces|namespace]] (area).
+===== Page Content Area =====
+{{ faqs:about_this_wiki:example_center.jpg?500 }}
+The //Table of Contents //for the page is normally displayed in the top right corner. It's especially helpful when you have a page with a lot of text. The Table of Contents is automatically generated from the page's headings.
+If you are viewing this wiki on [[faqs:about_this_wiki:things_look_different_on_a_cell_phone|a small screen]], the //Table of Contents //will be displayed as just a single heading line. Click on it to reveal the //Table of Contents //details.
+==== Links ====
+Links within the page content area are displayed using different colors and with different icons. Here's what they mean:
+^ Link Type ^ Description ^
+| [[faqs:about_this_wiki:what_are_all_these_icons_stuff#links|green links]] | these links will take you to another page within this Wiki |
+| [[NEVER CREATE THIS PAGE|red links]] | red links indicate that the Wiki page has not yet been created. We are constantly adding and updating this wiki. [[NEVER CREATE THIS PAGE|Red links]] indicate that there's more work to be done. |

+==== FIX ME! ====
+Sometimes you'll see FIXME or DELETEME  These are placeholders indicating that something needs to be fixed, added or otherwise adjusted - or deleted. We use these when we have something that needs to be done, but we do not have the time (or the information) to do it right now.
+===== Right Hand Buttons =====
+{{ faqs:about_this_wiki:example_right_signed_in.jpg?60}}{{ faqs:about_this_wiki:example_right_options.jpg?60}}The right hand buttons will vary depending on if you are signed in and if the page has an incomplete edit.
