Creating a new page

To create a new page you simply need to create a link on an existing page using [[Page Title]]. When you click the link to the page you will have the option of creating the page. Once you save the page it is a part of the wiki. You may notice that some pages have a prefix in them that ends with a colon such as Help:Contents. These prefixes are setup by the administrators to help separate different parts and features of the wiki.

Adding Pictures to a page

To add a picture to a page you must first upload the picture to the wiki. On the left side of every page you will see a toolbox with a link to upload the file.

To insert the picture into your profile use the following syntax replacing <File Name>, <Alternate Text> and <Description> with the appropriate values.

 [[Image:<File Name>|thumb|left|alt=<Alternate Text>| ''<Description>'']]
