Why can I edit this page?

Everyone can edit almost any page in this website. This concept is called a wiki. It gives everyone the opportunity to make a change for the best. In an open-source environment, like that of the NSIS community, this is very much desired. While some spam and vandalism may occur, it is believed that most contributions will be legit and helpful. For more information, see why wiki works.
