====== Introduction ======
This is the original homepage of **pywifes**, a Python-based pipeline for reducing data from the Wide Field Spectrograph (WiFeS).

**For up-to-date documentation on version 2 of PyWiFeS, please see [[https://pywifes-pipeline.readthedocs.io/en/latest/| our ReadTheDocs page]]**

An overview of the instrument itself can be found on its [[https://rsaa.anu.edu.au/observatories/instruments/wide-field-spectrograph-wifes|RSAA webpage]].

If you use WiFeS data in your paper, be sure to cite the Dopita instrument papers:

We have a published paper on PyWiFeS **(version 1)**, which you can reference to save yourself a 2-page data reduction description in your papers.  The paper is here:
