WWR Wiki Page Creationism Comic
From WWR
Here is a little page with screen snapshots to help learn the page creation process on the WWR Wiki.
As always, there are many ways to do things on this Wiki, let's show you one to get started.
Let's say you have a topic you think would interest the WWR crowd and want to create a Wiki page on that topic. What to do?
As an example, let's create a page on the Iditarod.
On each wiki page you will notice a search box. Type in the phrase of interest in this box. As a suggestion, it might be good to creat a page on your favorite recipe as a start.
On the search results page you will see that there is no page titled Iditarod.
Notice that Iditarod starts with a capital I. All Wiki pages start with a capital letter.
Click on the link create this page
Here is where the fun begins, you get to edit the page. You can use all your skills.
Type in text, include external links, link to other pages on the WWR wiki, include images, emoticons, external images.
For further info on formatting to help in creating your page see: Editing cheat sheet
Preview the page during your edit session.
If you'd like, sign the page with your name (notice the four tildes in the edit box, that's the code to autogenerate your signature and timestamp of edit).
Give it a meaningful summary in the textbox. Save the page.
Here is the page on the Iditarod:
Make a mistake? Want to add more information to the topic? You can always go back and edit the page. Select the edit option at the top of the page.
