Here are the pages I plan on writing in the Getting Started guide:
1. What's a wiki?
2. What can a wiki be used for?
3. What's special about XWiki Enterprise?
4. First steps with XWiki Enterprise
1. Admins
1. Changing the logo & moving the panels around
2. Creating new users
3. Setting user rights
2. Users
1. Editing a page
2. Creating links & new pages
3. Rollbacking to a previous version of a page
5. Going further: link to relevant sections on XWiki.org
WDYT?
