Categories are used to topically associate wiki pages. They also provide a simple means to navigate and view associated pages. Simply scroll to the bottom of any page and follow the category links to view more pages within that same category. Assigning a page to a category is as simple as adding <code>[[Category:<CatName>]]</code> when editing the page. Categories can be referenced on a page without adding that page to the referenced category by adding a colon to the beginning of the code as such: <code>[[:Category:<CatName>]]</code>. Users are asked to: | |||
* Read about [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Categories how to use categories]. | |||
* Assign pages to the proper [[Special:Categories|existing categories]]. | |||
* Avoid creating new categories --leave that to the site admin. Just let one of the administrators know. | |||
* Place the category code at the TOP of the page for consistency and to make it easy for other users to find. | |||

Standards and tips for editing the Step wiki

Definition of a wiki:
- "...a website or database developed collaboratively that allows users to add, delete, or revise content by using a web browser."
The Step Modifications wiki is intended to be a community-driven project; although, most contributions to date have originated from only a handful of contributors. Our goal is to make it easy for all community members to contribute by helping us maintain existing content and developing new content. We created this reference to help our userbase get more comfortable working within a wiki environment.
