Helpful hints¶
- Red links indicate wiki pages that do not exist, Blue links point to pages that do.
- Create a new page by:
- create a link to it in an existing page. ex.
[[wiki_page_name]]
or[[wiki_page_name|Name that the user sees]]
- either save your page, or if this is temporary, click on "preview"
- click on the new link (it should be red).
- Remember: Leaving the current page will loose any changes, so either save this page first, or right-click on the link to open a new tab/window.
- create / save the new page.
- create a link to it in an existing page. ex.
- All pages can be accessed by clicking either "Index by title" or "Index by date" from the right-hand navigation bar.
- When information needs to be duplicated on multiple pages (such as a figure with text, or an oft-repeated paragraph) create a page solely for that content.
Then, it can be included in other pages with{{include(wiki_page_with_image_and_text)}}
- This will ensure that a change in one place propagates to all appropriate pages.
- This is particularly useful with graphics, allowing you to only upload once, instead of on each... and... every... page....
