How do I delete an old version of a page?

Old versions of page data are retained in the database and can be accessed via the page history features. This is useful for reviewing changes and correcting or reverting undesirable ones, but in some cases, administrators might want to make this information unavailable, for legal reasons, or to reduce the size of the database.

Verify that you've selected the correct version, then click a link to edit the 3. page as you would normally. 4. You'll get a warning, above the edit box, about editing an out-of-date revision. 5.

How do I manage project documents?

If file uploads are enabled, you can upload certain types of files to the wiki. This is particularly useful for uploading images, which you want to place on an article, but you can also upload other types of files.

Upload a file

1. Prepare the file for upload. Make sure the file is exactly as you want it.
2. In the sidebar, under “toolbox”, click “upload file.”
3. Click “Browse” next to the “Source filename:” to locate the file on your computer (the name of the “browse” button depends on your web browser).
4. Change the “Destination filename:” to something descriptive, if necessary.
5. Fill in the “Summary,” if necessary.
6. Select the document category
7. If applicable (for publications and demonstrators), fill in the document detailed informations.

Note

1. Click the “Upload file” button.

If it is a large file, you may need to wait several seconds for the upload to complete.

Using Images and File Description Pages

After you've uploaded a file, you can use it in an article, with some special wiki syntax to create the link. See Help:Images.

Your file gets its very own “File Description Page” within the File namespace of the wiki. You should edit this page to provide more information about the file. For example, many public wiki projects are quite sensitive to copyright issues, and so you should explain where you got the file from, and what its copyright status is, on the description page. Any other useful descriptive notes could also be added there.

List of Files in the Wiki

There are a number of special pages to help you view and manage files which have been uploaded. Go to “Special pages” (in the toolbox on the left) and then see...

• Gallery of new files - If you just uploaded one, you will see it here.
• File list shows all of the files
• Unused files helps you track down files which might not be needed.

See Help:Special pages for details of the other information available here.

How do I categorize an article?

Including [[Category:Name]] in the text of any editable page causes that page to be placed in a category called Name. This link will not show up where it appears in the text, but a corresponding link will appear in the "Categories" box at the bottom of the page. The target of this link is a page called "Category:Name" – the link will be red until such a page is created. Conventionally, these category declarations are placed at the end of the page text, but before any stub templates (which themselves generate categories) and interlanguage links.

The category page (a page in the Category: namespace) is itself a normal editable page, but has a special mode of display – it lists all the pages that have been placed in the category it represents. If any of these pages is itself a category page, then it is treated as a subcategory; these are listed first. Otherwise it is treated as a member page of the category; these are listed below the subcategories. Any ordinary page content appearing in the text of the category page is displayed before the lists of subcategories and member pages. For further details about category pages, including sort order, see Display of category pages below.

To make a normal link to a category page from another page, precede the word "Category" with a colon, as in Category:Music, which appears as Category:Music. These links do not put the page in the category, and can be piped like ordinary wikilinks.
