Does not seem to work. I'm registered and logged on to main wiki but still no 
Edit buttons/links visible on any of the pages. You probably will need to 
upgrade my account's permissions.

In fact, I am setting up OSCAR pages on our local wiki right now and it even 
happens to use the same dokuwiki engine here, so it should be easy to import 
any parts that you might be interested in later. Since it is for our local 
users (and myself, in case my memory will be failing me) I don't think it 
will be suitable for general OSCAR users though. And I think it still makes 
sense to fix a few annoying errors in the main wiki's OSCAR 5.0 pages.

Thanks for advice, I will subscribe to the devel list.

Cheers,
