Step 1

Go to the Startpage of the TAO Community of Practice (open the page in a new window) and get a first idea of what it is about. Also have a look at the members page in order to see who else is part of this community of practice.

As a user name, you may choose a pseudonym or your real name.

Step 3

Step 4

Add your name and additional information to the members page of the TAO Community of Practice.

Click on the "edit" button and add your name and additional information in the table, following the example of the other users. If you find it too difficult to complete the table, you may just leave your information on the talk page as indicated.

If you want, you can also add additional information about yourself to your user page.

To edit your user page, you need to click on your user name in the top navigation of this page. By the way: There is an extensive guide about creating user pages and customizing the Wiki at the Wikipedia User Page Design Center
