Doesn't this page get installed by MediaWiki? 77244 1 jonathan 2012-10-29 02:30:36 +0000 I think due to the usage of forms we should create our own Help:Editing page since the default one is for using the default editor which is not in use on most pages. There are also a few tricks to editing our system that need to be addressed there as well. 77265 2 cmills 2012-10-29 10:18:13 +0000 A lot of this kind of material is contained in multiple pages, e.g. http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/WPD:Getting_Started#References. Should we reorganize this material into a more logical single entity, and then point to it from the Help:Editing page, or just create that page and turn it into an index for all those types of page? 77266 3 jonathan 2012-10-29 10:19:47 +0000 Yea, I also noticed the Gotcha page would be good to link to. I really think compared to redoing the content we should just make Help:Editing a portal to other pages to get help from. Should this page be made using the API or the normal create page process? 77267 4 cmills 2012-10-29 10:22:35 +0000 (In reply to comment #3) > Yea, I also noticed the Gotcha page would be good to link to.

I'm not 100% about this; Doug or someone else would be better positioned to give us an answer, after which I would be happy to implement it. 77271 5 jonathan 2012-10-29 10:37:55 +0000 psh. We don't need them, we just need to read the pages. ;) Excerpt from a missing page: " If you are creating a content page (that is, a page without a namespace in front), do not create the page manually. " Since this is under the Help: namespace we use the standard creation method for MediaWiki. i.e. Not using forms (WPD:New_Page) but using the create page link.
