-===== Get Involved — Start Editing =====+===== Get Started =====
  
-Ready to contribute? Lexipedia is built by its community. Here's how to get started:+Lexipedia grows in three ways: **defining** new models, **refining** the ones already in progress, and **exploring** what the community has built so far. Pick a path below — no experience needed.
  
-  * **[[Quick Start Guide]]** — Your first steps as an editor, from creating an account to making your first edit +==== Define a New Model ====
-  * **[[overview|Project Overview]]** — Understand the big picture: what Lexipedia is building and why +
-  * **[[Community Guidelines]]** — How we collaborate, communicate, and keep things running smoothly +
-  * **[[requests|Request Models]]** — See what the community is asking for, or suggest a new process model +
-  * **[[Recent Updates]]** — Stay current with what's changed recently+
  
-No experience needed! If you can follow a form or write a paragraph, you can contribute to Lexipedia.+Start something new — a process, a case, or a general wiki improvement — using structured intake forms.
  
-----+  * **[[define|Start Defining →]]**
  
-===== Coming from Another Wiki? =====+==== Refine an Existing Model ====
  
-If you've edited on Wikipedia, Fandom, or other MediaWiki-based platforms, you'll feel at home here. Lexipedia runs on **DokuWiki**, which shares many core concepts but has a simpler syntax.+Jump into a model that's already underway and help move it forward.
  
-**Key similarities:** +  * **[[refine|Start Refining →]]**
-  * Pages are edited with wiki markup (just like you're used to) +
-  * Links use bracket notation: ''<nowiki>[[page name]]</nowiki>'' works just like MediaWiki +
-  * Talk pages, revisions, and recent changes all work the same way +
-  * Community-driven editing with transparent revision history+
  
-**Key differences from MediaWiki:** +==== Explore Models ====
-  * DokuWiki uses plain text files instead of a database — simpler, lighter, and easier to back up +
-  * Headings use ''<nowiki>====== H1 ======</nowiki>'' instead of ''<nowiki>= H1 =</nowiki>'' (more equals signs = higher level) +
-  * Bold is ''<nowiki>**bold**</nowiki>'' instead of ''<nowiki>'''bold'''</nowiki>'' +
-  * No templates or Lua scripting — the focus here is on clean, readable content +
-  * See the full [[https://www.dokuwiki.org/wiki:syntax|DokuWiki syntax guide]] for a complete reference+
  
-If you're coming from tools like Notion, Confluence, or Google Docs, the wiki approach may be new to you — but DokuWiki is one of the simplest wikis to learn. The [[Quick Start Guide]] will have you editing in minutes.+Browse what's been documented so far, organized by jurisdiction. 
 + 
 +  * **[[explore|Start Exploring →]]** 
 + 
 +==== Onboarding & More ==== 
 + 
 +New here? These will help you get oriented, or jump straight to specific content: 
 + 
 +  * **[[quick_start_guide|Quick Start Guide]]** — creating an account, editing basics, and BPMN/DMN primers 
 +  * **[[overview|Project Overview]]** — the vision behind Lexipedia 
 +  * **[[groups|Community Guidelines]]** — how we collaborate (a work in progress) 
 +  * **[[sample_entry|Sample Entry]]** — see the standard structure of a model page 
 +  * **[[categories|Categories]]** and **[[jurisdictions|Jurisdictions]]** — browse models by topic or place 
 +  * **[[requests|Request Models]]** — see what's been asked for, or suggest something new 
 +  * **[[https://www.lexipedia.xyz/doku.php?do=recent|Recent Changes]]** — see what's changed across the wiki
