Wiki Structure

Try to avoid creating a structure more than three levels deep. For most purposes, the following guide will suffice:

Application
Application/Troubleshooting
Application/xxx-How-To
Application/Manual
Application/Manual/Introduction
Application/Manual/Section_1
Application/Manual/Section_xxx

Workflow

  1. Navigate to a page, which will contain a link to your new page
  2. Edit this page and insert a link to a new, not yet existing page like this: [[My New Page]]
  3. Write a one-line summary of what you changed
  4. Hit the Preview button and check your work
  5. Save your edits.

Now the page shows a red colored link to your upcoming page. A click on this link will send you directly to your new page and will open the edit box.

Note
