There several ways to add a page. Here is an example. Chris wants to add a story. He is part of Group XVI. Chris found the Story index by group, clicked on Group XVI. He saw the "Party" section and thought of how he got his nickname.

He then clicked on the edit link that appeared to the right of the heading "Party stories". At the bottom of the "Editing Group XVI stories (section)" content area, he added :

How I got my nickname Story1

1. Typing [[Story1]] creates a link to the page. Using the mouse to block "story1" and then clicking on the Ab icon, is a way to automatically add the double brackets.
2. Clicking on the "Save Page" button changes the screen to the view mode.
3. Click on the red "Story1". The red means no page for this name exists in the WikiFON.
4. This brings up an Editing Story1 screen. Start telling the story by adding text in the box.

Summary of how to add a page

Create a page link on an existing page, using the name of the page you wish to create. After saving the page with the new page link, click on the broken (red) link and you can start adding content to the new page. Remember to save it!

Tips & Tricks

• Already have your story typed out in Word, Write, or OpenOffice ? Do a copy from there and a paste into the editing area.
• Don't worry about making it pretty right away. Paragraphs are nice but remember that if it is not entered, nobody can see it and help you with the edits.
• Worried about page names? "Chris Udoh story1" is probably better than Story1. Page names can be changed but lets worry about that later.
