How to enter or edit an article

Check out the mediawiki help. In short:

1. To edit an existing article, click the edit button at the top, or inside the article page. For long articles with an index (TOC) at the top, the upper menu 'edit' will allow to edit the whole article (all sections), while the edit button in the text will only edit a single section. If you want to add a new section, you must use the top-menu edit button and edit the complete article!
2. To create a new page, enter the page name in the search box and press 'go'. If there's no page with the same title, you will see the message There is no page titled ":my new title". You can create this page. on the result page. CLick on the 'create this page' part of the text and the edit page for the new article appears!

How to use Pubmed search in Bibus

If you use a proxy server to access the network, Bibus will seem to hang forever (and you have to kill it), when you do a Pubmed search. To be able use the search Pubmed option under GNU/Linux (this trick worked for me using Ubuntu Feisty Fawn i686), use the following tweak:

• add the following lines to your .bashrc:

export http_proxy="http://yourproxyserver:port/"
export ftp_proxy="http://yourproxyserver:port/"
export HTTP_PROXY="http://yourproxyserver:port/"
export FTP_PROXY="http://yourproxyserver:port/"

• after saving and closing the .bashrc file, open up a new terminal and type bibus.
• now you can use Pubmed search
