− | === Edit ===
| |
− | | |
− | Some articles may be editable only by administrators. Feel free to make suggestions concerning those articles on their "talk" pages, e.g., [[CcWiki_talk:About|one for this page]]. These and other measures are in place to battle spammers. We apologize for any inconvenience experienced by you the gentle writer, unless you're a spammer.

− | | |
− | That said, please '''dive in'''. If you see content that needs to be expanded, fine tuned, is simply missing, you're probably right! Create and remix, please.
| |
− | | |
− | We're running the same wiki software as [http://wikipedia.org Wikipedia]. If you've edited articles there, you should feel comfortable here. All else equal we'll try to follow practices established by the Wikipedia community.
| |
− | | |
− | If you're not certain feel free to leave a comment on the relevant article's talk page or ask on [[IRC]] in realtime.

− | === Translate ===
| |
− | | |
− | This is (in theory, soon in practice), a multilingual wiki. Follow these steps to translate an article. For the purposes of illustration, the article is called ''Example Content'' and we will translate the article to Spanish.
| |
− | | |
− | * Create a new article called ''Es:Contenido del Ejemplo''. The contents should be a translation of ''Example Content''.
| |
− | * To ''Es:Contenido del Ejemplo'' add <nowiki>{{Lang-1|Example Content}}</nowiki>
| |
− | * To ''Example Content'' add <nowiki>{{Lang-1|Es:Contenido del Ejemplo}}</nowiki>
| |
− | | |
− | A box appear in each article listing the languages the article is available in. If an article is available more than two languages, use the appropriate template, e.g., Lang-2 for three languages, Lang-3 for four, etc.
| |
− | | |
− | ''Es:'' is special in the translated article name. It is the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639_codes language code] for Spanish, followed by '':''. If translating for another language, use the appropriate language code, e.g., ''Ja'' for Japanese (use alpha-2 if available).
| |
− | | |
− | Eventually you'll be able to search for articles only in language(s) you specifiy (technically because MediaWiki can treat a prefix before '':'' as a separate namespace).
| |
− | | |
− | == Migration from the old Creative Commons wiki ==
| |
− | | |
− | The original Creative Commons Wiki content is still available at http://oldwiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/Main_Page
| |
− | | |
− | In order to facilitate moving to a slightly updated license (see [[CcWiki:Terms of Use]]) and to drop lots of cruft and to avoid upgrading through several versions of MediaWiki we decided to launch a brand new wiki. If there is content on the old wiki that ''you created'' and that you believe should continue here, please manually copy the article(s) over.
