Ah, I see. Ideally the example should be stripped of most of the text, but
that's a bit of work I guess.

Putting just your e-mail address on a wiki page is fine. However, there
should probably be some description, screenshot or PDF illustrating the
result... otherwise people have no idea if it's useful :-)
Anyway, this is quite easy to start with... would you mind adding some
information to this page
http://wiki.lyx.org/Examples/Thesis
for instance... is it a MSc or a PhD example? And also a note that the
example assumes British standards. Perhaps what university it's for (they
all seem to use different standards...)
If you've never used a wiki, there's basically only two things you need to
know in order to do this:
* Click on the link Edit Page in the top right corner to edit the page
* The password is 'LyXers' (you can give whatever username you like)
