A quick 'n dirty guide to editing/adding articles.
- First up: the top left links are your friends.
- The "discussion" link will lead to a page where you can discuss the current content of an article. Use this if you disagree with (parts of) the article's current content, or if you want to add/edit content but are not sure whether it is appropriate. Consider the discussion link a place for "meta-talk".
- The "edit" link will allow you to edit the article itself - or even create it, in case there was nothing there posted before your addition.
- Adding/editing articles
- Rule of thumb: do a search to see if a page already exists. If it does, edit that page instead of creating your own new page - by using the "edit" link, top left.
- Creating a new page is easy: type in the main url of the wiki (http://wiki.killuglyradio.com/index.php/) and have it followed by the title of your new page like so: http://www.killuglyradio.com/index.php/Dweezil_Zappa Note the use of underscores instead of spaces, and the capitalization of each word of the newly created page! Again: before doing this, perform a search to check if the page does not already exist.
- To keep up with changes made to articles, click the "Recent changes" link in the navigation box. This page will show you who modified what, and for what reason. It's a convenient way to keep up with where any given page is at any given point.
- Lastly: your IP is logged with every modification you make to any of the pages. I'm sure your intentions are good. If, on the contrary, you consistently prove yourself to be a troll, your IP can and will be banned... but you're not like that, now are you! :)
