Introduction

This page is ***still under construction***. The idea of this page would be to make a easy-to-follow, step-by-step guide on how to use the wiki.
After going through this manual, you should know how to navigate the wiki, change pages and create pages.
The information that you will find here should be the same like you will find in the wiki-workshops.

If you have suggestions on how to improve this manual, please improve or leave notes on the discussion page.

Extra resources

Next to this manual, we also have a small manual that uses video's that show you what to do here.
What we have shown on this page are the mere basics for navigating the wiki and creating pages. There are much more possibility’s to creating pages than what you have seen here. A good source for extra functionality is simply copying pieces of code from other pages. For example, say you want a link that looks just like the link you saw on another page, well then, just go to that page, click edit, find where the link should be, copy the piece of code used and try it out on the page where you want to use it. You can even try to play around with these pieces of code or tags to see what you can do with them and make it look even better!
Because this wiki uses the same software as the original wikipedia, their help page is also a good source for help. Pages that we think might be interesting on the wikipedia-help are the pages on how to place links on your pages, how to format your text and how to create tables.

For extra help or just to give us input or remarks, you can, of course, always leave a message on the discussion page, which is the wiki-way ;)
You may also contact us by e-mail
Or if you want, you can always leave a message or question in the pad bellow. Be aware however that we do not get automated updates when something gets changed on this pad. Therefore, we would advise not to use this for urgent matters. Although, since we are currently in the process of creating this manual, we will of course be checking in on this pad on a regular basis.
