The standard new page making is disabled in this wiki, though you're not disallowed to add a new page. You need to use a workaround. If you want to make a new page, think about this:

  • Is the content really funny or useful? For example, there should not be a page named "Blah".
  • Is the content already present on another article? Then, your new article won't be needed, as the info can already be found. Unless it's hard to find or too extendable, of course.
  • Can the content be presented in a form that does not anger, insult, or offend other readers?

You can start an article using this input box where the intput box will be the name of the article page.

<inputbox> type=comment buttonlabel=Create </inputbox>

After you get onto that page, you should have the title where "New Article" would have been on the page previously. After that, input your content. Okay, if you want to add this to a category, like Category:Tutorials, simply put:

[[Category:Tutorials]]

at the bottom of the page. Hit save to save it, or preview to see what it looks like so far. You will have to save after you preview, though. From then on, the page will show up in the Tutorials section.


For markup, tags and stuff, check the Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing That's all. You'll now have an empty box wherein you can put stuff. Good luck.

If you run into a roadblock, you may find it useful to leave a message on another user's Talk page asking them for help.
