Get help with editing here We are developing a User Guide here Improve your technical writing skills and techniques here. Occasionally you may want to upload an image or a file. An uploaded file must not be subject to copyright. Help with uploading files is given here. A text file has to be in .pdf format and is actually stored in the Image section of wikiversity. A useful glossary of terms relating to Parkinson's is the We Move one: http://www.wemove.org/glossary/ Note that contributors are expected to provide references to back up what they say.[1]
