This will contain a manual for Administrators of the wiki.

Assigning Categories

A categorical hierarchy has been established and should be developed built as needed sections are added to the wiki.







Here is how you would create a category like Page Under Development,

Create page: 
Category:Page_Under_Development

Add this line to the end of all pages that you want to put in the above category
[[Category:Page Under Development]]

Click on category to see all pages linked.


Modifying the Sidebar

The sidebar is essentially a list of pages dedicated to key topics.
As the wiki develops, changes will have to be made to the sidebar to accommodate subject developments. Changing the sidebar is as easy as modifying any other page, but it must be accessed in a particular manner.

The sidebar page can be found at:
http://unbhistory.lib.unb.ca/index.php/MediaWiki:Sidebar


To modify the sidebar, simply edit this page and add or remove the desired links.

To review how to add a new link visit the appropriate section in the Archives Manual.
