Hello Everyone,

I just posted the completed content on the Wiki

http://wiki.povray.org/content/Documentation:Contents

Phase 1 I'm calling it ... is completed.

Each page has a header/footer that links to that docs "talk" page.

Each page has a navagation link at the bottom of the page. The left side
goes to the last Item of the previous page, the right side goes to the first
item on the next page.

I did a pretty exhaustive QA but would appreciate you all having a look when
you get a chance.

Cheers Jim

Btw, some time ago I wrote this slope map tutorial for inclusion in the
next POV-Ray standard documentation. (Got greenlighted by the pov-team.)

  I wonder if it would be a cool idea to go ahead and add it to the wiki.

  Btw, I notice that the formula images here are not showing properly:

http://wiki.povray.org/content/Documentation:Tutorial_Section_3.2#Poly_Object

  (These images must be somehow cursed. The online povray documentation
has had numerous problems with them during the years, and now it seems
the wiki is also having problems with them.)

cool ... find an appropriate place for it, and you should (if you're a
registered user) be able to add it to a talk page, then one of the sysops
can add it to the protected page.

  There's something wrong with the images. For example, compare the first
formula with the correspondent formula here:

http://povray.org/documentation/view/3.6.1/74/

  As you'll see, the square root symbol has been converted to the letters
"sqrt", which was probably not what was intended.

  (The curse these images have still continues strong, I see...)

yes I noticed that with the prod and sum formulas as well. Ingo I believe it
was replied to my query and said something about using and Image (before
inline LaTex). The package of files I got from Chris didn't have the images
but the stuff that you see on my page on the Wiki (User:Jholsenback). If
somone knows where I can get those Images I'll be glad to use them in place
of the inline LaTex.

Regards
Jim
