Yep, I have double checked with another browser. The pages definitely
give me "edit" URLs which allow me to edit everything, in http.
It also works fine with my certificate which is good.
Another niggle is that http://wiki.gridpp.ac.uk/ should forward to
http://wiki.gridpp.ac.uk/wiki/ - no?

Thanks - I've found the wikipedia now, and its documentation.
For the simple things, it's straightforward to copy what you've done.

I'll add it to the list.
