+## Documentation
+
+So far, there is not much documentation.  Eventually, the wiki will
+contain a reference for users.  This is what we have so far:
+
+* [Initial Tagging](/initial_tagging)
+* [Emacstips](/emacstips)
+
+Apart from the wiki, help is available via email.  Join the mailing
+list.  Read the archives.  Ask questions.

+## Feature ideas - bin list
+
+We have started a <a href="http://notmuchmail.org/feature-requests/">feature requests</a> page on this wiki. 
+No, things you add there won't automatically get implemented - but it's a nice way to collect ideas.
+
+## Emacs Tips and Tricks
+
+The best supported interface to notmuch is based on emacs and can be tweaked extensively. We have started to collect some tips and tricks [here](/emacstips).
