Help:Writing Small Talks

General Information

If you want to change the smalltalk's title, you can add redirection at first line.

  #REDIRECT  [[pagename]]

Create a Page

To create a Small Talk in our current set-up just use the URL:http://books.zkoss.org/wiki/Small_Talks/YEAR/MONTH/The_Name_Of_My_Page

Replacing The_Name_Of_My_Page with the name of your article. The general convention with the wiki is to replace any spaces with an _ (underscore) in the URL link. If in any doubt you can create a link to your article below by editing this page and using the following:

[[The Name Of You Article]]

Naming Convention:
- use Article Name as Page name
- use underline to replace whitespace (ex. MVC_Made_Easy)
Date Ascending

{{Template:Smalltalk_Author|

- if your page is still draft or under review, you should put Draft Mark on it.

Adding Images

To add images to your Small Talk you need to navigate to Special:Upload. On this page you are able to upload your images and then include them in the page using the following syntax:

   * [[Image:File.jpg]] to use the full version of the file
   * [[Image:File.png|200px|thumb|left|alt text]] to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with 'alt text' as description
   * [[Media:File.ogg]] for directly linking to the file without displaying the file
