| content = This is the home page for the CS wiki. This wiki contains FAQs, software information, and other useful information for staff and students. We've tried to split the FAQs into sensible categories, but if you're not sure where to look, try the search box in the top right hand corner.

If you have any problems that are not academic-related (e.g. broken lab machines, new software requests, water spillages) and not answered on the wiki, please report them here: https://support.cs.manchester.ac.uk
