Hi Sciurus, This Introduction page is very nice. Great Job! I would just replace the "first ConTeXt document" section with a link pointing to First_Document, section Create a ConTeXt file, because newcomers are likely to begin with that page anyway. Maybe using the same example would make sense? It would be also worth to index it in the Basics index. These are technical stuff that may be discussed further on in the wiki mailing-list. wiki@contextgarden.net Best regards, Damien Thiriet On Thu, Oct 22, 2020 at 01:43:28AM +0200, ntg-context-request@ntg.nl wrote:

Hi all,

Just wanted to put the word out that I have posted two new pages to the Wiki, both aimed at new users of ConTeXt:

https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Introduction https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Some_Basic_Commands

The first is an introduction to the general principles of writing documents in ConTeXt, and the second is just a list of commands that beginning users might be likely to want to use to customize their documents. I expect that I will be continuing to update the second page in particular, as I find other such commands or am able to provide further information or links.

I am myself a relatively new user of ConTeXt (I started using it this summer, having used LaTeX for many years), so there is a whole lot that I don't know about it. I have tried to test out everything on these pages, so while the information there may not be complete, it should at least be correct.

I don't claim to be any kind of authority on ConTeXt. I'm enjoying learning it (including the many things that I have learned from this mailing list!), and since I have seen in many places (including at the bottom of each mailing list email) encouragement to contribute to the Wiki, I have begun doing so. I am continuing to try to learn about ConTeXt, and I have decided that as I learn things and/or find things on the Wiki that could use supplementing, I'll try to add what I can. The Introduction to ConTeXt that I have posted reflects the understanding of ConTeXt that I have gained over these recent months of using it, however good or bad that understanding may be.

I welcome all manner of feedback on these pages (and of course feel free to edit or contribute to them, as appropriate). Right now neither page is linked to from anywhere else in the Wiki, so users wouldn't find them except possibly by accident while searching for something else. If people think that these pages would be useful, then I'd be happy to let the Wiki administrators decide where best to put them.

Thanks,

Sciurus
