CpapWiki:What the CPAPtalk.com CPAP Wiki is not

Content

The CPAPtalk.com CPAP Wiki is not made of paper

This may seem obvious. The main point is that this wiki is potentially limitless, and includes formatting and links typically not found in paper publications, and is dynamically created by many people. However, there is a big difference between what can be done and what should reasonably be carried out.

Keep in mind the primary scope of the CPAPtalk.com CPAP Wiki is on articles pertaining to CPAP usage, and Obstructive Sleep Apnea. This is not the place for articles about unrelated topics.
