New pages

New language pages are currently (2010-04-14) made by the administrator ([[Mamandel]]).

They should never be at the top level ([[LANGUAGE]]), but one level down in their namespace ([[LANGUAGE/LANGUAGE]]). See Atlantean.

There should also be a category for each language, so that pages relevant to more than one language, such as ISCII, can be included in all the appropriate categories.

At first they include a great many resources relevant to only some languages. The language editor should check and refine these links and descriptions, and if necessary delete them. These are marked with the resource symbol Image:RedRx.gif and at generally at least partly in red type.

Making and linking to a page's Table of Contents

The Wikimedia software will automatically generate a TOC (Table of Contents) for a page with four or more sections. Wikimedia Help provides detailed information on controlling the TOC.

The TOC's section name is generated as "toc", so you can link to it with "[[#toc|Contents]]", which produces the link Contents.
