how do i create a new entry??? / USO entry help...

sorry for probably the biggest newb question of all time (in this forum) but:

how do i create a new entry???

i am planning on making an entry about USO's (unidentified submerged objects) and i was wondering how i would go about in doing this...

additionally, if any ATSer wants to help me in any way, just reply in this thread...

thanks...

Creating a new entry is simple.

First step is to be sure such an article doesn't already exist.

I'm sure there isn't an article on USOs yet so we can skip that step .

Just type tinwiki.org... into your browser. The page will say "(There is currently no text in this page)" now you click the edit button.

For more check out the TinWiki Tutorial.

Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions, or just ask in this thread.

TinWiki creates those for you.

tinwiki.org...:Tutorial#Headings
When there are 4 or more headlines tinWiki will automatically compose the table of contents.

and, is it okay, if i list some sites with additional info (not in the references section)???

Just toss those links under an "External Link" heading.

tinwiki.org...:Tutorial#External_links_heading
After the article is written you should add any external links that you may of used to write your article. Place the links under the header == External links ==. To add an external link click the external link button or type [www.example.com... link title]. For example [www.abovetopsecret.com... Above Top Secret]

and, does the bbcode work in tinwiki???

No. tinWiki uses wikicode.
You will find everything you need in those buttons at the top of the edit page.

i desire to change some text sizes...

There shouldn't be any need for that.

thanks dude

No problem.

You are using the Tutorial I linked to you right?

yes teacher...

i mean, i skimmed the tutorial

don't worry, i will devote time to fully read it though...

thanks again...

i have completed the entry and i have made a thread about it:

my entry on USOs (unidentified submerged objects)...

one question:

can you fix this link in the "external links" section:

"link AboveTopSecret.com Search: Unidentified Submerged Objects"???

take out the "link" part, i don't know why it is there...

thanks...

i hope ya'll like...

hey, don't i get a reward for doing this
