Create a new page!
Creating a new Portland Wiki page is reasonably quick and mostly pain-free. As this wiki matures, there may come a time when most contributions will consist of editing and/or updating existing pages. But Portland Wiki is still growing like half-wild toddler, so what's stopping you? Go ahead, start a new page. You can do it!
Let's look at a few elements that you may want to include in even a minimalist new Portland Wiki page.
Page Title
The first element you'll want to decide on as you create your new wiki page is a page title. The easiest way to entitle your new page is to perform a search to see if another Portland Wiki page already exists with that title. It's not likely you'll run into that problem while Portland Wiki is still a "tot," but if you do, perhaps you can think up another page title.
To search for a page, type your search query into the search box located in the top right corner of any PortlandWiki page.
Consider visiting PortlandWiki's Sandbox page, where PortlandWiki contributors can freshen up their wiki markup skills.
Page Body
To create a new page, please include a minimal page structure, something like:
Clever Header Here
Write a witty, light-of-heart (yet heavy of mind) opening paragraph here.
