I am on board with this and would like to help, as someone who likely missed out on many of the tips you and Laura mention.

Dear All,

 I recently created a website called txti to create an editable  page of helpful MS Word commands that I use most frequently in my  clerkship. It is a direct response to all the things I've been  learning about formatting of documents specific to the Court.

 I just started last week, so I only have a few key sequences in there, but I very much like the idea of also incorporating our shared formatting knowledge. I  originally intended to grow this page on my own, then share it with  the list and allow group edits, but Laura's email made me think we may  as well get this off the ground now.

 If anyone else is on board, let's maybe figure out some rules of editing to make  this a functional wiki. I can actually create separate lists on the same page that we  can easily navigate through using a screenreader. One list can be  keyboard shortcuts. One can be formatting tips. And another can be, I  don't know, general warnings and concerns.

 This hosting website is incredibly user friendly. It was designed by  a friend of mine, and he always designs with blind users in mind.
 Here's the website.

 Best,
 chris
