Form:Wiki: Difference between revisions

<noinclude>[[Category:All|  ]]:'''''Please note:''''' – before creating any <u>new</u> [[article]] pages for a [[wiki]] site here on this {{tag|WikiIndex}} wiki, please ensure you have used the '''[[Special:Search|search function]]''' to check if the desired [[WhatIsWiki|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 <u>name</u> articles here on '''WikiIndex'''.  Thanks :)

'''Form:Wiki''' — this is the '''Wiki form'''.  This [[Special:Forms|form]] calls on our default [[Template:Wiki|wiki article infobox template]].  Use the form below to create a <u>new</u> [[article]] page for a [[wiki]] site with a rendered infobox; ''or'' view and [[edit]] an <u>existing</u> wiki article page here on [[WikiIndex]].

With this [[Special:Forms|form]], enter the full, correct name of the [[WhatIsWiki|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 <u>identical</u> wiki name [[Special:AllPages|already exists]] here on WikiIndex, you will automatically be directed to a form to [[edit]] that <u>existing</u> 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.

</noinclude><includeonly><div id=WikiPreview style="display:none; padding-bottom:25px; margin-bottom:25px; border-bottom:1px solid #AAAAAA"></div>For guidance on how to correctly enter data in the boxes below, please click on the question mark (?) blue circle icon to the right of each box.  Where examples or instructions are given, please enter advised text in the relevant box without using any of the 'quotation marks' shown.  It is important to try following the correct format, as parts of this wiki uses [[WikiIndex:Structured data|structured data]], which is useful for generating reports on specific attributes.

|{{{field|name|size=100}}} {{#info:Displayed name of the [[:Category:All|wiki site]] in the rendered [[Template:Wiki|infobox]].  This entry is optional.  If left blank, the infobox will assume the same name as this article page name.  This entry is useful if the wiki site name is different - maybe longer, than a shorter concise article page name, or if the wiki site begins with the word 'The', or includes a lower-case leading letter.  You may also add a tagline in smaller text and ''italics'' after a forced line break.}}
