Creating a New Page

How do I create a new page in a wiki?

If you're planning to link the new page into an existing page, the easiest way is to just edit the existing page, and type the name of the new page in -- as if it already exists. (Sometimes thinking something is so is almost enough to make it so in a Wiki!) Save the existing page. You'll see a funny looking link with a question mark in front of it. Click on the question mark. The Wiki will create the new page automatically, and open the edit window allowing you to add some initial content to the page. When you click save, the wiki page will be created!

Another way is to search for it in the "Search:" box, then click on the "CreatePage" button when no search results come back.

You can also create a new page from a Category page (e.g., the "Book" page) by typing the name of the new page in the Create Page box below the list of items in the category. Creating a new page like this has the nice feature that it automatically puts the page in the right category.
