-====== Neighborhood Skills & Services Directory ======
-This is a simple neighborhood website where people can offer useful skills and services to others nearby.
-Examples include:
-* Handyman and home repair
-* Lawn, garden, and snow work
-* Computer and technology help
-The site is **non-commercial and non-political**. It will not process payments, charge commissions, run advertising, or promote political causes.    In order to be fair , NayborWiki does not permit:  Religious promotion, political messages or identity group endorsements.
-===== How the Website Would Work =====
-The site would use **DokuWiki**, a simple website system where authorized users can edit pages directly in a web browser.
-It works somewhat like Wikipedia. A user can click **Edit**, change the text, and save the page without needing to know HTML or programming.
-DokuWiki also keeps a history of changes, so older versions can be restored if something is changed by mistake.
-For this project, people offering services could have a simple page describing what they do, their general location, availability, pricing if they choose to provide it, and how to contact them.
-Visitors could browse or search the directory and then make arrangements directly with the service provider.
-===== Looking for Collaborators =====
-I'm also looking for people who would like to help shape and develop the idea.
-You don't need technical skills. Collaborators could help with ideas, organization, testing, community guidelines, maintaining listings, or website development.
-Because DokuWiki pages are easy to edit, several people could help maintain the directory rather than having everything depend on one person.
-===== Interested? =====
-I'd like to know:
-* Would you use a directory like this?
-* Would you list a skill or service?
-* Would you be interested in helping develop or maintain it?
-If there is enough interest, I'll put together a simple first version.
