 ====== Welcome to the Whistle Crew Wiki ======
+Congratulations and welcome to the effort! 3D printing is a great hobby especially now that the technology has evolved to being about the things you produce rather than the printer itself. This wiki is your home for information and resources for printing and shipping community protection whistles.
-Your home for 3D printing tips, optimized 3MFs, downloads, and links to other resources.
+You are encouraged to [[wiki:meta_download-this-wiki|copy, remix, re-host]], and spread this wiki far and wide.  Built by the community, all content here is covered under [[https://creativecommons.org/licenses/publicdomain/deed.en|Public Domain]] and should be freely shared.

+**NOTE:** Due to overwhelming interest, the Whistle Crew has paused onboarding new members until we have more robust systems in place! But we hope these resources will help you get started on your own whistle adventures.
