ProgClub uses MediaWiki for its wiki software. We have an old project called Pcwiki in which we made some modifications to MediaWiki but we don't maintain that project any more. One of our modifications to MediaWiki (which we do maintain) is the green/orange/black colour scheme with the fixed-width fonts called the OldSkool skin. If you don't like the OldSkool skin there are instructions for turning it off.

Consult the User's Guide for information on using the wiki software.
