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

An overview of the instrument itself can be found on its [[http://rsaa.anu.edu.au/observers/observing-rsaa/wifes-information-observers|RSAA webpage]]
and further details about instrument configurations and observing can be found on the
[[http://www.mso.anu.edu.au/ssowiki/index.php/2.3m_WiFeS|WiFeS Wiki]].

If you use WiFeS data in your paper, be sure to cite the Dopita instrument papers:
  * [[http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2007Ap%26SS.310..255D| Dopita et al. (2007), ApSS, 310, 255]]
  * [[http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2010Ap%26SS.327..245D| Dopita et al. (2010), ApSS, 327, 245]]

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