= Using the CBU imaging wiki =
This wiki contains the collected and sometimes rather old recorded CBU wisdom about imaging. It is almost completely devoted to FMRI, and has a large bias towards StatisticalParametricMapping software, just because that is what we all use.

== Making yourself a login ==
If you want to edit pages, or want to see the pages with special permissions, please make yourself a login. Make absolutely sure your chosen login name is a WikiWord, otherwise it will be difficult to give you permissions. See the WikiWord page for details. For example, my login is MatthewBrett, and Ian Nimmo-Smith's login is IanNimmoSmith.

To make a login, use the UserPreferences page.

If you want edit permissions or want to see internal pages, please email one of the ImagersWikiAdmins with your login name, and we will add you to the necessary lists.
If you want edit permissions or want to see internal pages, please email [[RhodriCusack|OlafHauk]], or failing that, one of the AdminGroup, ''with your login name''. If you want CBU or Cambridge permissions, please let us know your affiliation. We will then add you to the necessary lists.

If you want to post documents with access controls, then attach them to a page with the access controls above, and the same access controls will apply. Don't link to the attachment directly, link to the page that has the attachment. So, if the document is often linked to, you probably want a very small bare page containing the attachment to avoid confusion. An example is MriSubjectScreening.

Using the CBU wiki system

Approved logins and restricted pages

Most of the pages here are publicly readable, but you may need to have an approved login to read some pages. If you try to read such a page and are not logged in, or have an login that is not approved, then you will get a message - "You are not allowed to view this page."

Getting an approved login

To get an approved login, see GettingApproval.

If you want edit permissions or want to see internal pages, please email OlafHauk, or failing that, one of the AdminGroup, with your login name. If you want CBU or Cambridge permissions, please let us know your affiliation. We will then add you to the necessary lists.

Editing pages

We welcome any edits to the pages - this is the very heart and soul of the wiki concept. Please:

If you make edits to a page, please sign your edits somewhere by leaving your login name, e.g. I just wrote this (MyName)

Making home pages

Please see MakingHomePages

Configuring the wiki to your taste

See HelpOnUserPreferences - and make changes in your UserPreferences. Note that, if you like your text to be a bit smaller than the current wiki default, you can add /wiki/smaller.css to the User CSS URL field of your UserPreferences.

Adding images and attachments

is very easy. For example if you wanted to add an image, just insert the text attachment:my_image.png. When you have saved the page, you can click on the link to upload the image as an attachment to the page. See HelpOnLinking for more details.

Putting up documents that need access controls

Some of our pages and some of our documents may be restricted to people with CBU logins, or Cambridge logins. For pages that should be restricted to the CBU, add this as the first line in the page:

#acl GoodGroup:admin,read,write,delete,revert CbuGroup:read

and for Cambridge (and CBU) pages:

#acl CambridgeGoodGroup:admin,read,write,delete,revert CambridgeGroup:read

If you want to post documents with access controls, then attach them to a page with the access controls above, and the same access controls will apply. Don't link to the attachment directly, link to the page that has the attachment. So, if the document is often linked to, you probably want a very small bare page containing the attachment to avoid confusion. An example is the MRI subject screening form.

Making links is covered in the HelpOnLinking page - but also you can also use the InterWiki facility in our wiki farm to link between different wikis - for example - CbuMriFacility (with wiki markup CbuMriFacility:CbuMriFacility).

See CbuInterwikiNames for a list of CBU interwiki names.
