Quick Start Guide

How do I edit an existing page?

• Click the "edit" link to the right of the section heading (prefered method) or click the "edit" tab at the top of the page
• Edit the text
• It's recommended you click the "Show preview" button to check it's OK
• If you're only making a small change (such as correcting spelling or layout) then tick the "This a minor edit" tick box
• Click "Save page"

How do I add a link?

A simple link is like so:

[[My Document]]

Result: My Document

You may want the link label to be different from the link destination in which case it's like so:

For more information on my document, [[My Document|click here]]

Result: For more information on my document, click here

It should be noted that links are case sensitive so My Document is a different destination from my document

I want to add a page

Simply edit a page and add a link. For example if you want to add your new page add it's name in double square brackets like so:

[[My Document]]

Save the page and you'll be taken to the newly modified page. Click on your new link and you'll be presented with an editing page where you can type the contents of the new page.

Note: All uncreated pages have red links - click on them to create the page
