'''WikiIndex: Add a Wiki''' — welcome!  You are invited to add a [[wiki]] site to this [[WikiIndex]] wiki site of all [[WhatIsWiki|wikis]].  Please first see [[WikiIndex:About]].  When you are ready, please follow the three simple steps listed below to {{tag|help}} create a new wiki site [[article]] page, or edit an [[:Category:All|existing wiki site]] article page here on {{tag|WikiIndex}}:


In 2009 the total population of Pakistan was estimated to be about 176,242,949 (July 2009 est.) with the average annual inter-censual growth rate at 1.87% per annum (estimates for 2005), placing it at seventh among the most populous nations in the world. Of the total population only 30% resides in urban areas.
==Step 1 – check to see if it's already listed here==
Please check the drill-down view of [https://WikiIndex.org/Special:BrowseData/All?_single list of wiki sites] . Try to find the correct name of the wiki site.
According to most recent census the literacy rate is 54%, this becomes remarkably low in rural areas. Pakistan has very sound geographical location, agriculutural land and has rich human and natural resources, but theses resources were not utilized properly since from the inception of Pakistan. There could be many factors behind what I personally think that;


Pakistan was established on the ideology of Islam, and it was the main theme of independence moment that Islam will be the our supreme law and way of life, but unfortunately we have not followed that and went behind the earthly powers and that resulted in the curse of Allah in the form of corrupt leaders, social injustice and corruption in almost all spheres of life.
Use the [[Special:Search|search feature]] in the left [[sidebar]] menu to check if the wiki site is already listed [[Special:AllPages|here]].  We already have quite a big index!  Try some alternate names of your wiki site (e.g. with or without the word 'wiki' on the end, or the word 'the' at the beginning).  If you find it already listed here, and the included URL is the correct one, there is no need to add it again; just [[edit]] the existing information (if needed)!


In last few years due to these conditions becomes quite drastic, especially terrorism has destroyed the whole social setups and economy that has put the ordinary people in real test. If we evacuate all these factors we need to judge our actions, that where we are wrong and what could be the solution of these problems.
==Step 2 – create the wiki article page==

'''“Ma’arij initiative”''' is one of the ideas to play our any role to help the suffering people. Especially those called “Safaid Posh”(who do not ask anyone). This will include people from all walks and any part of Pakistan.Prefrence will be given to disabled, Hemophiliacs, HIV infected/affected or anybody else.
Type the <u>exact name</u> of the wiki site into the above edit field, and click on the 'Edit an existing wiki article page, or create a new wiki article page' button.  You will be transferred to a newly created article page, '''''or''''' to an existing wiki article page (if it already exists). Fill in there what you know; at least the URL link address of the wiki site.
(It's pretty easy to rename the article later according to our [[WikiIndex:Naming conventions]]).


We are not an NGO, CBO or any charity organization; we are just a group of people who is trying to perform their human and religious duty to help our brothers/sisters with our available resources.
Click on 'Show preview' to make sure everything looks correct and accurate, then confirm your changes and save the article page.


A small amount One Lakh (10,0000)(this amount will be flexible) will be provided in the beginning as “Qarze Hasnah” to run a small business, whatever he/she wish to do. We will not expect anything from him/her for first six months of business, after that if his/her business runs into profit, he/she can give 5% of his/her monthly income to “Independence Fund”, in this way he/she is expected to pay back his Qarze Hasnah in quite reasonable time of his/her life. After paying Qarze Hasnah if he/she wills he/she can continue this contribution for many other deserving people.
==Step 3 – upload or hotlink the logo==
To put a [[:Category:WikiLogo|logo]] on the required wiki site article page . . .
*You must be an existing WikiIndex registered user, and [[Special:UserLogin|log in]] <u>before</u> you can upload an image.  Otherwise, please [[Special:RequestAccount|request a new account]], and wait for the new account approvals process to complete, then log in;
*Click on the '''Upload file''' link in the 'tools' section on the lower left hand sidebar;
*Locate your logo file using the 'Choose file' button;
*Upload the file, remembering to also 'tag' the file with {{Template|WikiLogoOf}} in the 'Summary' box, along with any appropriate license(s), then click on the 'Upload file' button at the bottom of the page;
*Copy the page name of your new logo file page;
*In the appropriate wiki article page, click on the 'edit' tab at the top of the page, and find the <code>|logo =</code> field of its [[Template:Wiki|Wiki infobox template]], then replace <tt>No</tt> (which automatically displays 'File:NoLogo.png') in the code above with your new logo file page name;

WikiIndex: Add a Wiki — welcome! You are invited to add a wiki site to this WikiIndex wiki site of all wikis. Please first see WikiIndex:About. When you are ready, please follow the three simple steps listed below to help create a new wiki site article page, or edit an existing wiki site article page here on WikiIndex:

Step 1 – check to see if it's already listed here

Please check the drill-down view of list of wiki sites . Try to find the correct name of the wiki site.

Use the search feature in the left sidebar menu to check if the wiki site is already listed here. We already have quite a big index! Try some alternate names of your wiki site (e.g. with or without the word 'wiki' on the end, or the word 'the' at the beginning). If you find it already listed here, and the included URL is the correct one, there is no need to add it again; just edit the existing information (if needed)!

Step 2 – create the wiki article page

if needed . . .

Type the exact name of the wiki site into the above edit field, and click on the 'Edit an existing wiki article page, or create a new wiki article page' button. You will be transferred to a newly created article page, or to an existing wiki article page (if it already exists). Fill in there what you know; at least the URL link address of the wiki site. (It's pretty easy to rename the article later according to our WikiIndex:Naming conventions).

Click on 'Show preview' to make sure everything looks correct and accurate, then confirm your changes and save the article page.

To put a logo on the required wiki site article page . . .

  • You must be an existing WikiIndex registered user, and log in before you can upload an image. Otherwise, please request a new account, and wait for the new account approvals process to complete, then log in;
  • Click on the Upload file link in the 'tools' section on the lower left hand sidebar;
  • Locate your logo file using the 'Choose file' button;
  • Upload the file, remembering to also 'tag' the file with {{WikiLogoOf}} in the 'Summary' box, along with any appropriate license(s), then click on the 'Upload file' button at the bottom of the page;
  • Copy the page name of your new logo file page;
  • In the appropriate wiki article page, click on the 'edit' tab at the top of the page, and find the |logo = field of its Wiki infobox template, then replace No (which automatically displays 'File:NoLogo.png') in the code above with your new logo file page name;
  • Click on 'Show preview' to verify your new logo is displaying correctly in the wiki article page, and if you are satisfied, Save your edit to the wiki article page.

As an alternative, if you do not want to log-in (or request an account) here on WikiIndex, and you know the URL for the wiki site logo, you can hotlink to that logo using its URL in the same |logo = field of the wiki infobox template.

Note: if you upload an image with its filename that starts with a lower-case letter, this first character is automatically converted to upper case. The MediaWiki wiki software we use is case insensitive to ONLY the first letter of any File name (and also case insensitive to article, Category, User, Template, and all other namespace page names). So prepare to use a link to 'LogoXYZ.gif' when you've actually uploaded 'logoXYZ.gif'.

An alternate way to put a logo on the wiki site article page is described at WikiProject:Logos.
