This page was intended to be an index to all the pages that tell you "how to do" something. The difficulty is that that this page would then need to be updated every time some one added a new "how to" page.

It has been pointed out that a better way to do this is to have a HOW TO category that is associated with each page and the Wiki software itself will build the index for us. This also means that pages don't have start with the words "How to" or any other convention like that that. They just have to have the words "Category:HOWTO" inside two open brackets and close brackets on the bottom of the page.
