L1™ Wiki Project Team

2006 08 23 Wednesday

Most of what you need to know about navigating the wiki is on the main page The Bose® L1™ Wiki. For some background on the project see The Bose L1™ Wiki Project.

The plan is to incorporate this into our online community by linking into the wiki (this site) when people need reference material, and to continue to build up the knowledge as we go along. We are basically live now, but at this point the only people who know about it are those who have been invited to this page. To get back to this page, in the menu (at the left) click Wiki Team. I will eventually move that link, but for now I wanted it to be really easy to find.

How you can help

Take a look around

There are a couple of easy ways to find things.

The sort of expected navigation approach

• go to the Users Guide

OR

• type a key word into the Search box

Or

• click the link for a random page

(You can do that successively)

You can find all the articles where you are mentioned by doing a search by your firstname or your forum ID.

If you want to experiment with the editing process try the Sandbox

Any comments you have would be great

Add a comment by clicking the discussion tab at the top of any page. Then click the + tab that will appear to add a new comment.

Let's use the discussion feature to do the same thing for the overall project - right here on this page.

Edits

• Fix anything you see that looks like it needs fixing.
• Hit the edit tab on any page that looks like it needs help, and give it a shot.

• Please use Summary and Show Preview before Save Page

It looks like this: Please use Summary and Show Preview before Save Page

• If you want to experiment with the editing codes try the Sandbox

• PLEASE keep image uploads small. If you can link to them it would be much better as my server connection is not very fast. It is fine for text and images under 50k but it gets sluggish beyond that. If you have a large image you want to display here, for now - please drop me a note in the discussion page and I'll contact you.

New Pages

If you want to add new pages, take a look at this list of All the current pages and you'll get an idea of the naming convention. Not hard wired, but I think you'll get the feel for it.

Categories

Categories are optional, but extremely powerful and easy to use. They allow us to tie related pages together.

As you create or edit a page, you can add any number of categories. For example if you are creating a page about a microphone technique you would add this.

[[category:Microphone]]

It's Live

Please remember that the site is basically live and public now so for any really goofy stuff, try to do that in the Sandbox page and I'll clean it up later.
