<big>'''Welcome to the Cumulus Wiki'''</big>, the community Wiki is for sharing knowledge of the [[About Cumulus|Cumulus]] Weather Station software. [[CumulusWiki:About|This Wiki]] was originated to document the (original) Cumulus software Steve Loft developed, and later modified to also cover other flavours (Cumulus 2 and MX beta) Steve Loft developed. Steve Loft deleted the material on Cumulus 2 when that was abandoned. The Wiki retains content for the legacy original Cumulus software that people still use.

==Please help==
<div style="padding-left: 20px; width: 95%; border:solid; border-width: thin; padding:10px; margin-bottom:20px; padding-bottom:20px; background-color:LightYellow;"><big>'''It's your Wiki......'''</big><br> <br>We always welcome contributions from the Cumulus Community and if you feel you can contribute, please do.
*'''Are you willing to help us rewrite this Wiki to document MX'''?
*MX has been evolving rapidly since Mark Crossley started leading development (with small contributions from others), ''so there is much more to document''.
*In particular, '''can you help make it more friendly for those whose first encounter with Cumulus is a MX release? '''
*The first step has been done, rewriting this page to promote MX over the legacy Cumulus; but many other pages are still largely as they were created decades ago.
#As a starting point, we suggest you read [[Help:Contents/Editing|How to Edit]],
#*that is full of hints on how to write Wiki pages,
#*including Cumulus Wiki specific help.
#If you
#*want a suggestion to start you off ...
#*or want to make a suggestion ...
#** ... [[How_you_can_contribute]] is where '''what needs doing''' is listed
#If you see a warning about a page, or section, being '''out of date''', can you help document how MX has changed?
#If a page uses '''<nowiki>{{Template:WorkInProgressBanner}}</nowiki>''', then can you help to finish off that documentation?
</div>
*If you plan on '''CONTRIBUTING''' to the Wiki, then you will need a userid.
**Please use the [[Special:RequestAccount|Request Account]] form to apply for a userid (you may have to wait some time for a response), or
**If you already have a userid, then just [[Special:UserLogin|Login here]] (link also available on top right of any page).
'''''When requesting a Wiki account, it would be helpful if you can use the same user name as on the Cumulus forum (but use a different password!), it makes it easier for the admins to identify genuine account requests from spammers.'''''
