How To
Find a pen name suitable to you, (ex. ZB Fischer, SP McPherson), and type it into the search bar. If you are registered, click the Create this page link. Once you have done that, Write a short biography of yourself (preferably in third person; nothing too personal, mainly writing) and do a bibliography of yourself, listing all the stories you have written. Then click save page at the bottom. Click on your story's red links, and create the page with the context of the story. Don't worry about neatness, we'll clean it up if needed.
Links and Headlines
If you want to make a headline like the two on this page, include 2 equal signs on either side of you headline.
Example:
==Headline==
Take out the stars and replace the word headline with your headline to create a headline. :-) Say that 5 times fast.
To make a link to another WriteWiki page, such as to link to ZB Fischer or 15 Minutes of Dane insert two square brackets on either side of your story's title.
Example:
[[Your Story]]
Take out the stars and insert your stories titles to create the links.
Index
Some of you may have noticed that on pages like Experiment 18L or The Morbid Angel that there are indexes that bring you to the different chapters. You'll even find them on pages like ZB Fischer . So, you probably wonder how to get one... Well... If you have enough headlines they automatically come up. Any page with at least 4 (I think) headlines gets an index.
Categories
If you would like to add a category to the bottom of your page to help organize it you must add two half boxes on either side as well as Category: before your category.
Example:
[[Category: Insert Category]]
Remove the stars and where it says 'Insert Category' in italic... Insert the category. Then you're page will be categorized in that category and therefore more organized. There's a list of categories in the Write:Community Portal or you can make you own.
To Make Your Own Category simply make a category... But insert a category name that doesn't exist yet. Then, view the page you added the category to... Click on your new category (It will be red) and just summarize what that category is for when the next page comes up.
Images
Uploading pics can be done by creating an account and clicking Upload File in your toolbox. Your toolbox is on the far left of the screen, under your navigation, under the search box, and under the ads.
To Post on you page paste the following code:
[[Image:Image name|thumb|Caption]]
Replacing the italics with appropriate text.
Other HTML
I'm gonna have to refer you to http://wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML
With that you can learn just about all the HTML you'll need to make your page.
Redirecting pages
To redirect a page, first search the page that you wish to have redirect to your page. Create the page, using this text (take out the stars):
#Redirect [[page you want to redirect to]]
Messaging and all that Jazz
Sending Messages
If you want to message someone, go to their profile page. (If it doesn't exist, start it) Not their WriteWiki page, but their username profile page. (Difference can be seen below) and then hit 'Discussion'. If you're the first to send them a message, just type in your message. If you're not, his the + button and write your message.
Difference between WriteWiki page and Username page:
Recieving Messages
If somebody messages you in your discussion page, once logged in a small notice thingy will appear at the top of your WriteWiki pages telling you you have new messages. Just click to view. You might also get an e-mail...
And base this off experience. If it doesn't work...
Having Trouble?
Go to your own discussion page, just as if you were going to message yourself. But instead of hitting the + button, hit the Watch button. This will fix any problems. Word up. (I hope.)
