Anyone can add a page to WikiIndex to describe a wiki website (what this site is about). Follow these simple steps:

Step 1 - Check if it's already listed here

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

Step 2 - Copy the Boilerplate

  • Copy the following boilerplate to your clipboard (select and Ctrl+C)

Template:Wiki Boilerplate

To put a logo on the wiki description page...

  • You must login or create a user login before you can upload an image
  • Click on the "Upload file" link in the lower left hand toolbox
  • Locate your logo file using the browse button
  • Upload the file
  • Copy the page name of the image page
  • Replace "Image:NoLogo.png" in the code above with your image page name
  • SAVE the page

Note: if you upload an image that starts with a lower case character, this first character is automatically converted to upper case. The server is case sensitive. So prepare to link to "Logoxyz.gif" when you've actually uploaded "logoxyz.gif".

Optional - categorizing

How do categories work
