Hello, I am the Sysop of this Wiki and this is my page.

Creating a navtree

• First, in the Mediawiki:Sidebar Page, prefix the name (not the url) of the page you want to be inflatable with a "+" (i.e. ** news|+News).

• Second, place all pages for which this item should be inflated in the matching category, by putting [[Category:<catname>]] (i.e. [[Category:news]] at the end of the page.

• Third, edit Mediawiki:Nav_<catname> (i.e. Mediawiki:Nav_News), so that the system knows, which items should be listed.

Adding Pictures

Staff Members

Pictures of Staff Members should be 144x200 Pixels and JPEG.

File Icons

File Icons should be 24x24 Pixels and JPEG.

The COMING UP Field

Editing

• Just edit the Mediawiki:Comingup Page.
• In case, something goes terribly wrong, here is a template:

<tr>
  <td>
    <small>
      <!--Date-->
    </small>
    <p>
      <a href="<!-- Read more-->">
        <!-- Some short news text -->
      </a>
    </p>
  </td>
</tr>

• The idea is that the coming up page should be automatically generated and be easily modifieable through a php interface. However, this won't happen any time soon.

Displaying

If you want the ComingUp Box to be displayed on your page, just add [[Category:ShowComingUp]] to it.

Fileupload-Templates

• Look at Template:pdf for an example.
• Use with {{pdf|filename.pdf|Look at me, I'm a PDF}}
  This will render to Look at me, I'm a PDF.
