<p>Tarball: </p> <hr /> <div>*[[sara johnsen (san francisco)]]<br /> *[[robert voyer (chicago)]]<br /> *[[gabe mcelwain (chicago)]]<br /> *[[chris vlasses (chicago)]]<br /> *[[deirdre kelly (philadelphia)]]<br /> *[[becky stark (st. paul, MN)]]<br /> *[[conor loughridge (philadelphia)]]<br /> *[[travis carter (ithaca)]]<br /> <br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> ==creating a wiki login==<br /> click the link at the very top right and follow the instructions to become a user of the wiki. this is good because it lets the wiki keep track of your every move (when you are logged in). click on the &quot;recent&quot; link in the sidebar to the left to see what i mean.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> if you don't create a login, the wiki will just track your ip address.... yawn.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> ==creating a new page in the wiki==<br /> new wiki pages are created when you make a link to them from an existing page.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> so all you need to do to create a new page for yourself is click the &quot;edit&quot; tab above and add a link with your name to the above list.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> your new line in the list should look like this (you'll see the other links formatted this way in wiki code when you are editing):&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;nowiki&gt;*[[your name (location)]]&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> :asterisk is a bullet.<br /> :double square brackets make a link.<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> links are the text that is enclosed in double square brackets: &lt;nowiki&gt;[[link]]&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> #edit this (or any) page,<br /> #create your link by typing the page title in double square brackets,<br /> #click &quot;Save page,&quot;<br /> #click on your new link, and<br /> #the page will open ready to edit.<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> once you save the page you just created, that page will exist in the wiki, and you can visit it to edit it however you like.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> make sure the link is a title that you like, because the text of your link will be the name of the page, and that name will show at the top when the page is viewed. (you can change that later too, but it is a multi-step process, so it's better to start off with a title you like).&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> for more information about how to write wiki formatting code (it's easy!) look at [http://www.tmbw.net/wiki/index.php/Basic_Wiki_Formatting this page] (from a they might be giants wiki, of all things).<br /> <br /> ==adding your personal page to the members category==<br /> there's a line you totally need to have on your member page! we're not really using this very page (members) as the members page, since a wiki &quot;category&quot; will keep track of members better than we will.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> so, add the following line to your member page, and you will automatically be added to the members category:&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;nowiki&gt;[[Category:Members]]&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> so when people click on the word &quot;members&quot; in the sidebar at the left there, you'll be there.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> ==adding your song to the songs category==<br /> same deal with your song pages:&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> add this line:&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;nowiki&gt;[[Category:Songs]]&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> to each song page, and they'll be in the song category, so when you click the &quot;songs&quot; link on the left, your songs will be there with the rest!&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> ==formatting your pages by copying gabe's code==<br /> for the most part when making your pages, you can:<br /> #go to [[gabe mcelwain (chicago)|one of gabe's pages]] of a similar nature,<br /> #click the edit tab,<br /> #copy all the text from the editing window, and<br /> #paste it into your new page.<br /> that way it is easy to format.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> ==three SUPER IMPORTANT notes about wiki!==<br /> #&lt;b&gt;you can edit anyone's pages.&lt;/b&gt; this means if you go to gabe's page to gank his lovely formatting code, and really gank it (or delete it, or otherwise screw it up), and save it that way, any changes you made will be saved! poor gabe! so bear that in mind and be careful when editing. this is a nice feature because it allows you to leave comments on other people's songs, but it is kind of dangerous!<br /> #;<br /> #&lt;b&gt;alt-d is wiki slang for &quot;delete the current page.&quot;&lt;/b&gt; this is an extremely stupid hotkey but there it is. someday i will disable it. in the meantime, if you want to navigate elsewhere, please just click in the address bar instead of using this keyboard shortcut. thank you.&lt;br&gt;<br /> #:<br /> #&lt;b&gt;an easy way to sign and datestamp your comments or other work&lt;/b&gt; is to type in four tildes in a row, like:<br /> #::&lt;nowiki&gt;~~~~&lt;/nowiki&gt;<br /> #:i think that is my favorite wiki tag at the moment because it generates useful text from an adorable squiggly line.<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> ==confused?==<br /> please click the &quot;discussion&quot; tab above and leave a comment there if any of this is total nonsense.&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> [[User:Sara|Sara]] 21:46, 30 August 2006 (PDT)</div>
