we should put the artfiact templates up as wiki pages on here. i put mine up so i can work on it as i can. but this way everyone can see what everyeone else is doing and provide feedback as needed. and because the artifacts overlap(ill need information from 4-5 others to complete mine). but just a thought.

helpful html code < br/ > = newline table example: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_tables.asp

I do like this idea. The only potential issue is that normal .dot or .doc files do not use an HTML structure for formatting (like GitHub's wiki does), though they can likely convert an HTML structure to something they may use. However, this does mean you may have to clean up their conversions.

If the above bothers you, you should still make a wiki page, but just copy and paste the contents of the entire Word Document onto it whenever you update it. This way, everyone can see your artifact and you won't have to mess with formatting.

After making a wiki page for your article, please go to the Artifact Assignments wiki page and update your artifact assignment by providing a link to the new wiki page that contains that artifact.

Here is a great example of the only changes that need to be done:

-1. Iteration Plan - Ray Bigelow +1. [Iteration Plan](https://github.com/hjc1710/JagTrack/wiki/Iteration-plan) - Ray Bigelow

The first line (the one with the - in front of it), was what the text for Ray's artifact assignment looked like before he added the link to his artifact page. The second line (the one with the + in front of it) is what the line of text looked like after Ray had edited it. As you can see, all he had to do was put brackets ([]) around the artifact name and then get the URL for his wiki page and put it in parenthesis after the close bracket (]). The changes are bolded.

Doing this would greatly help everyone, so I'm going to require that you all do this. It should not take you too long.

If you have difficulty setting up the wiki page for your artifact, or editing the Artifact Assignments page, let me know over e-mail (hjc1710@gmail.com).

thats all i did was copy and paste the body and insert html line breaks.

Ahhhh.. there you go, perfect. You may even be able to search for new lines in your Word Document from your word processor, then just mass replace them all with: <br />, just don't save the results (this doesn't seem to work in browsers as they cannot be used to "find" line breaks).
