Revision as of 00:11, 16 November 2022
- Please note: – before creating a new article page for a wiki site here on this WikiIndex wiki, kindly ensure you have used the search function to check if the desired wiki site article is already listed here, albeit maybe under a slightly different spelling. Furthermore, please ensure you have read WikiIndex:Naming conventions, as this describes how we name articles (and categories) here on WikiIndex. Thanks :-)
Form: Wiki — this is the wiki form. This form calls on our default wiki article infobox template. Use the form below to create a new article page for a wiki site with a rendered infobox; or view and edit an existing wiki article page here on WikiIndex.
With this form, enter the full, correct name of the wiki site in the box below, and click on the grey 'create a new wiki site article page, or edit an existing wiki article' button. If a page with that identical wiki name already exists here on WikiIndex, you will automatically be directed to a form to edit that existing page. If no wiki (of that identical name) is listed, you will then be prompted to a further series of step-by-step edit boxes where you can add full detail of the wiki site you wish to list here on WikiIndex.
Articles created using this form will automatically added to category: All.
