Detailed instructions on creating a new page can be found in MediaWiki’s help pages [1].

Page creation

There are three ways to create a new page:

  • By linking a wiki page using a standard syntax. If you (or anyone else) create a link to an article that doesn't exist yet, the link will be coloured red. Clicking a red link will take you to the edit page for the new page. Simply type your text, click save and the new page will be created. Once the page has been created, the link will change from red to blue (purple for pages you've visited) indicating that the page now exists.
  • If you search for a page that doesn't exist (using the search box and “Go” button on the left of the page) then you will be provided with a link to create the new page.
  • You can use the wiki's URL for creating a new page. The URL to an article of the wiki is usually something like this:

"https://publicwiki-01.fraunhofer.de/CIPedia/index.php/ARTICLE"

Template

The template that should be used for creating the content of a new page can be found below and is also available on the CIPedia wiki [2].

Basic editing

Editing a page is fairly simple. The steps are:

  • Click the "Edit" page tab at the top of the page (you are now on Edit mode).
  • Make changes to the text.
  • Click the "Save page" button.
