Step 2 - Create the Page

  • Create the Page

Creating a new page in the SARMA Wiki is easy to do - go ahead and Be Bold! If you make a mistake, the page can always be deleted, edited, or renamed.

You can create a new page in one of two ways:

  1. Search for the page you would like to create. At the top of the search results page, you will see a link that says "You searched for blah blah". You may also see a link on the page that says "Create this page"

    Click either link and it will take you to a blank edit page. Enter the text you want for your page and save. You may also want to then link your new page from another related page.


  2. Create a link to the new page in edit mode. For example, if you type the following:
    This is some wiki text. This is a [[link to be created]] An example of how to edit and add a new page

    ... and when you save the page, it will appear on your saved page as:

    This is some wiki text. This is a link to be created

    You can then click the link you have created. This will take you to a blank page. From here, enter your text and select save. This will create the page.

Step 3 - Paste

  • Paste the text you copied from Step 1 into the page and click "Save Page"

Step 4 - Edit

  • You can now either edit the entire page at once or each section separately.
