To add for example a new project that starts with letter
"S", you navigate to:
http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/ProjectsUsingMercurial
scroll down until you see the "S" section, then click on the letter "S"
(this is a link), which will take you to:
http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/ProjectsUsingMercurial/S
Then click on "Edit (Text)", which will give you an edit field containing:
'''

== Projects with synchronized Mercurial repositories ==
The following projects have ["Mercurial"] repositories that are synchronized with their primary SCM system. These secondary repositories may not be (and often are not) maintained by the project, and thus generally have no official status.

Some options for getting Mercurial repositories hosted:
* [http://sharesource.org ShareSource.org] - A Sourceforge-like server for hosting projects. Supports Mercurial out of the box
* [http://alioth.debian.org/ Alioth] (Debian's GForge instance) [http://wiki.debian.org/AliothHg supports Mercurial] and the repositories are accessible via [http://hg.debian.org/ hgweb].
* sourceforge, see MercurialOnSourceforge.
