I just logged in to the wiki and looked at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/ 
Tux_Paint .  There is no form with semantic mark up for TuxPaint.
Maybe one our semantic wiki experts could add it?
Ton could you please reply to this with the links to the .xo file and  
the source, so when the fix up occurs to the page this info will be  
available.
