Configuring apache and MySQL:
A good how-to to correctly setup the application used by mediawiki can be found there:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Running_MediaWiki_on_Debian_GNU/Linux
But, of course, you should NOT do the part that talks about mediawiki installation itself :)
Editing and Syntax:
MediaWiki syntax is rather complex.
To prevent this README file from becoming a manual,
we don't provide here instructions on MediaWiki syntax.
But you can point your browser to this page:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing
Where you will find all that you'd like to know about it!
