*To introduce a new person to this wiki, if you are familiar with computers, this is still a problem.  It takes a long time to learn how to do this program.  Originally it was a little easier with the portal pages.  Now, as I introduce others to this program, they still have difficulty finding what they want.  A specific research problem, or area both involved.
*The wiki is hard to use because it is hard to figure out the best way to search. Perhaps add a few tips on how to search.
*Don't like having to sign in again to link to the forum.
*The wiki is not easy to use and it is a complicated editing process with wikitext.
*The first screen (home page) needs to be more user friendly and inviting.
*We need contact with a person who knows it to help us learn.
*I would like to see more edit options on the tool bar and less working in wikitext. (techie person)
*The help feature on the home page needs to stand out. Currently it blends in with all of the other material on the Home Page
*I'll be honest, I feel like contributing to the wiki is boring. I have passion about genealogy but can't see how that translates to contributing to the wiki.
*The wiki is beige and boring.
*Hard to find "how to topics"
*I liked how easy it is to edit what other contributors have done. But it is hard to make brand new contributions yourself.
*Wiki needs easily creatable formats for new pages.
*Wiki is bland - it needs to look more creative.
