Help:New page

Starting a new article on wiki takes only a couple of clicks. There are three methods for doing this.
 * Click on any red link on your wiki (which can be created by linking to a page that does not exist).
 * Click the add page button on your wiki's homepage.

 * The "Create a new article" box will open
 * You can choose the article name by typing it in the box. This name will become the last part of the page's URL.

 * Decide between a standard page layout or a blank page. The standard layout provides an image place holder and section headings.

Changing the standard layout
The preload contents for the "Standard layout" are stored at MediaWiki:Newpagelayout on your wiki.

Options
The "Editing" tab of Special:Preferences includes options for page creation:


 * Use blank page as default for creating a new page - This makes the blank option on the right be the default on the popup.
 * Disable Create Page pop-up - If checked, this disables the box for you.
