Wiki Tips

This page will be dedicated to tips and ideas to help you get the most out of our Wiki!

  • Tip #1
    • Read the latest news page DAILY to see what's new on Wiki
  • Tip #2
    • Start your search for information from the appropriate category homepage - every page related to that category will be linked from the category home page. The categories are in the large font on the sidebars.
    • SCA's start on the SCA Procedure page if you are looking for info pertaining to SCA responsibilities.
    • SCC's start on the SCC Procedure page if you are looking for info pertaining to SCC responsibilities.
    • Start any search for product information on the Product Information page.

Breadcrumb trail

One thing we sorely miss on wiki is the breadcrumb trail, the navigation data telling us how we got to the page we are on separated by > in the upper left-corner (see the website for an example). So, we will slowly be adding the breadcrumb data manually to the upper left corner. This will allow you to know HOW to get to the page you are on, what category it can be found in, etc. Every page starts from Main > and is followed by the category (the large font print on either the right or left-sidebar).

Alternate Titles

Though the search function works really well on Wiki, we can always make improvements! We will be adding a list of 'Alternate Titles' at the bottom of pages where the title used might not be the first one that comes to your head. For example, the Research Paper page. You might search for research report, position paper, or research project. Having the list of alternate titles will enable the search function to pull up this page no matter which name comes to mind! Check out the link for an example.

Large File Uploads

An uploading tool has been installed at http://sca.inquisicorp.com/uploads/uploadify/. It puts your file in /uploads/Main, but is not connected to the Wiki's upload handler. So, please make note of your filename before you use this tool. When it is done, your file will be available at http://sca.inquisicorp.com/uploads/Main/{filename}.
