I took a look and it seems fine.  The only things we must not put
on the wiki are passwords and babase data.  We probably should
not put usernames there, but if we did it wouldn't be
terrible.  (More toward the tasteless end of the spectrum.)

(for the wiki? :)

First you click on the userpreferences link at the very top middle
of the page (after logging in).  (It's the page you get
when you login.)

Then you put your email address in.

Then, to see changes to _every_ page on the wiki you should
put '.*' (without the quotes) into the "subscribed wiki pages..."
text box.  Or, for individual pages you can go to those pages
and click on the subscribe tab above the text.  (Then
go back to user preferences to see what that does.)

(.* is a "regular expression" pattern that matches everything.
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression )
