==Contents and Navigation==
[[Audiology]]
The sidebar to the left lists categories, or chapters, linking to information about our Medical Practice: clinics, hospital inpatient, medevacs, formulary and many clinical resources. The links may be the best route to what you're looking for, but [[Special:Search|searching]] is also effective. You may also wish to see the list of [[Special:AllPages|all pages]].

'''HOSPITAL SERVICES'''


Wiki navigation is somewhat primitive. If you find yourself at a dead end or in a standalone pdf document, you may not see the main sidebar menu of the wiki. Use your ''browser's'' back button to return to the previous page or until you find yourself in familiar territory.

==Editing and Contributing==
[[Case Management]]
The ePOM is authored by a team of our senior medical staff. Questions, comments and requests can be directed to the Chief of Staff or Medical Director. YKHC staff can find a list of which editors are responsible for updating which sections [[http://ykhcintranet.ykhc.org/apps/libraryapp/index.cfm?fuseaction=Document.ShowDocumentDetail&id=2102 here]]. Staff can also find an introductory guide to the YK Wiki [[http://ykhcintranet.ykhc.org/apps/libraryapp/index.cfm?fuseaction=Document.ShowDocumentDetail&id=2101 here]].
<br />[[Community Relations/Translation]]
===Redlinks===
<br />[[Diabetes]]
Editors can create links before a page is made. These show up in red (in the wiki world, these are known as "redlinks"). Clicking on one of those links will take you to an empty page. If you are logged in as an editor, you can create the page yourself. You can use your browser's backbutton to escape if you're not ready yet.

=== Editing ===

The Guide to YKHC Medical Practices uses a lightweight graphical editor to simplify the process of editing pages, but the standard wiki markup you may be familiar with from other wikis is still valid. You may find this [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Cheatsheet cheatsheet] helpful.
