Tinka is a very important part of the Tiddlywiki development flow. However it is also a third party plugin. If someone hypothetically writes a tutorial, will it be accepted to tiddlywiki.com? The underlying question becomes what is the ideal criteria to select tutorials to the Tiddlywiki site? There are lot of third party plugins and it is unfair to accept tutorial about one and not about other.
