Akvopedia is now mobile enabled! This means that you can use any browser on any smart phone (all platforms) and see a slightly more compact and easier to access version of Akvopedia. Although we are currently working on our own app that we are building using Phonegap that will be available on Android soon. The app is based on the Wikipedia open source app, and will have the great benefit of multi-language capabilities, just like WIkipedia has. We will announce the release of our app on our home page, once it is ready. But for now enjoy the mobile-enabled browser when viewing Akvopedia!
===Akvopedia FAQ===
'''4. What if I disagree with the content on Akvopedia?'''
If you feel the material posted on Akvopedia is outdated or conflicting with information you have, you can always post your opinions views in the “Discussion” tab of each Akvopedia page. Although our discussion tabs are not used often, that is a good place to start and as it will make your information seen by the public without you having to know anything about editing an Akvopedia page. You may also contact Winona Azure, the editorat winona[[Image:at symbol.jpg|12px]]akvo.org, to offer new content or updated materials to any page, if it takes less than a half day to post. We get this request sometimes, and appreciate the efforts people take to keep information accurate and current! We find that costs for WASH projects or services, especially, change over time, and we welcome new updates for this.

====Tips for uploading content====
Generally, anyone is welcome to add information, cross-references or citations, as long as they do so within Akvopedia's editing policies and to an appropriate standard. Substandard or disputed information is subject to removal. Users need not worry about accidentally damaging Akvopedia when adding or improving information, as other editors are always around to advise or correct obvious errors. Akvopedia's software [http://www.mediawiki.org MediaWiki] (which also powers the [http://www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia]) is carefully designed to allow easy reversal of editorial mistakes.
