Stone Soup. Explain that the wiki can be like the stone. The ingredients are the knowledge that we are all willing to share.

Slide 6: Registration. How to do it. Does this need a screenshot or graphic?

Slide 16: People tend to overlook the settings screen, but there is a lot you can do with it. Point out the options with single or multiple user pages.
Slide 17: Explain that the power of multiple wikis is in interwiki linking. That someone on wiki A can reference wiki B's content.
Slide 18: Big long talk on this one, depending on audience be prepared to get interactive.
Slide 19: Sort of a catch all place to cover closing remarks.
Items not covered by this presentation explicitly are related to Business Owners. Be prepared to talk to those points as well because it is likely that the audience will have questions about that subject.
