A '''new page''' is distinguished from a page: the latter has a ]. However, creating a new page is just like editing a blank page, except that the message that is in ] appears, which can be different per project. |
|
|
|
|
|
For general editing matters, in particular the ] of the ], see ]. |

== General principles == |
|
|
* ''']''' to see whether someone has written a similar page before you start one yourself. |
|
|
* Review conventions of the project you are working in regarding e.g.: |
|
|
**the naming; see also ]. |
|
|
**whether a separate page is justified; perhaps it is better to add the text to a related page (especially if the text is not very long); that page can always be split later after it has grown. |

==Starting a page through the URL== |
|
|
The URL corresponding to a non-existing page gives a webpage like that of an existing page, showing the text that is in ]. |
|
|
|
|
|
It has the usual edit link, which allows you to create the page. |
|
|
|
|
|
Thus a "broken link" from within or outside the project is, in a way, not really broken, as long as the first part of it is correct. |
|
|
|
|
|
An easy way to produce the URL is editing the last part of the URL of another page in the same project. |
|
|
|
|
|
An ] to a non-existing page (not recommended) gives the same result. |
|
|
|
|
|
To get access to a MediaWiki project with all the links at the edges, but without superfluous loading of any page, you can bookmark a non-existing page. |
