That's fine if you use a converter to import your docs, but please avoid 
relying heavily on HTML or CSS on the new website since the layout and 
design will be changing drastically from the current site. I would 
prefer the wiki to feel the same between all articles and have a common 
markup, layout, and design. This makes the website easier to navigate 
for new users and makes finding the information needed much easier for 
everyone.

Some things I would like to stress when creating or editing an article 
on the wiki site:

* Avoid tables whenever possible, except for pages like the front page, 
use div's instead if possible.
* Avoid using CSS to modify text formatting (e.g. font sizes, styles, etc)
* Use the wiki-markup over HTML if possible (except tables...the wiki 
syntax for those is impossible to understand...)
* If you've never used a wiki before, please use the sandbox 
<http://wiki.lunar-linux.org/index.php/Sandbox> to play around and get 
familiar with the wiki -- also, please make heavy use of the preview 
button; always preview your changes before submitting them.
