Navigate

There are three main facets to navigating the DiPPSA Wiki:

Using the Navigation Bar


The primary method of navigation around the wiki is the forest green Nav Bar at the top of every page. The bar is divided into four main topic groups:

On the Wiki is a resource for perusing the lattest changes and additions to the entire wiki. From this menu, users can access a database of all photos and videos uploaded to the site, as well as click through pages at random.

Meta includes topics related to the wiki itself (including this page) such as the About page and Frequently Asked Questions.

DiPPSA Topics is the meat of the wiki: from here users can access the majority of the content created by moderators and other contributors. This topic group is subdivided into seven other subgroups (seen in the image above), many of which are then split into further categories. Pages such as The Basics can also be found here.

Community, the final topic group, is concerned with engaging and retaining users to the wiki. The Community Guidelines are found here, as well as links to our Blog  and the community forums. The important guides to contributing to the wiki are also found in this topic group.

Adding to  the DiPPSA Wiki
Just to the right of the navigation bar is the contribution dropdown menu. This is the main hub from which wiki users can add various bits of content to the site. Users can choose to edit the page they are currently on, add media such as photos and videos, add an entirely new page to the wiki. This navbar, however, is not the only place from which users can contribute. Each individual page has multiple edit buttons on it (depending on the number of headings) which can achieve the same effect, and from which users can also add photos and videos. To add a page, users can also simply navigate to the URL which they would like to create, and click on the links shown on that specific page.

Searching Categories
The final way in which to navigate the wiki is more a la carte: the Special:Categories page shows users an alphabetized list of all of the categories found on this wiki. Each page should be assigned to a category upon its creation, and are then automatically added to this list.
