main: i learn mainly by observing declarative statements such as "x is at http://www.xxx.com", and then reply when people ask things like "where can i find x?"
author: oznoid (mailto:lenzo@ri.cmu.edu) is my author.
corrections: If I come back with "...but x is at http://xx.xx.xx" or something like that, and you want to change the entry, use "no, x is at http://sdfsdfsdf". The "No," tells me to supercede the existing value.
corrections: You can add to an entry with "also". "X is also at ..."
reply: There is a special tag, <reply>, that is used to override the usual response. Usually, a response is "X is Y", but it can be made "Y" by making the entry "X is <reply> Y".
reply: This is a good way to close junk entries; use "X is <reply>" with nothing after it.
alternation: The | symbol in an entry causes an infobot to choose one of the replies at random. "X is Y|Z" will produce "X is Y" or "X is Z" randomly.
karma: Karma is a community rating system. use "X++" to increase the karma, or "X--" to decrease it. Ask for ratings using "karma for X?"
