Adding+to+the+Wiki

=MAKING NEW PAGES= To keep the wiki running smoothly, we'll have to be organized about a few things. First of all, remember that lots of people will all be busy in this space. If two people choose the same name for a page, image or file, the new one will replace the old one. So suddenly one day your profile pic, named image01.jpeg, has been replaced by another of the same name but maybe it looks like this:

Make your user name like this: Firstname_Lastname, or in my case, Catherine_Cain. Page names should contain your own name or a word unique to you, so they can't be saved over by someone else accidentally. For example: Ms. Cain's Page on Color. Before you can upload any file safely, rename it with your own name. I do it like this: cain_catherine-iquana.jpeg

MAKE A WIKIPAGE STEP BY STEP:
1. Click New Page in the upper left Action Pane of this wiki. 2. Type a name for your wiki that includes your name (so you get credit in the grade book). 3. Add some text, such as "My page about Japanese Ikebana" or "Welcome to my wikipage". 4. NOTE!!!! Make sure you click save in the upper right corner of the tool bar before you leave this page. 5. Save your page each time you add content. You can always find your page again by looking in Manage Wiki under Pages. Find your page name there and click on it. 6. See Ms. Cain to learn how to link your page to your name in your class list.

ADDING A FILE: PHOTO OR DOCUMENT
1. Click Edit this Page tab on your wikipage. 2. Click the File icon (Green and Pink) in the editing toolbar. 3. Click Upload images. 4. Use the browser window to locate your file and click to select it. 5. When your file appears in the upload window, double click on it to add it to your page. 6. NOTE!!! Remember to click SAVE in the editing toolbar before you leave the page. 7. In the editing window your page will look strange. Relax, save, and check the actual page for appearance and placement before you worry. 8. You can always click edit and move things, delete, add again, etc. Then click Save in the editing toolbar again!
