Boobpedia:New painter
| This page is a how-to guide detailing a practice or process on Boobpedia. |
If you want to add a painter to Boobpedia, you should consider not only to create an article, but to fully integrate him into the Boobpedia system. The procedure is simple: You have to
- create an article,
- create a template,
- create categories.
There are predefined "half-ready" pages that help you. You can use the buttons below to go through all three steps and follow the instructions given on the respective new pages.
Article
This is the main page for the painter. It contains the biobox and everything you want to write about him.
- Use the input box below to create a new article for your painter.
- This creates a predefined painter article. Follow the instructions and comments given on the new page and return to this page when you are done. You can add text and details later.
- Follow the next two steps.
Template
This special template is a "data container" for your painter. Editors can insert the name of your painter in an article by using the {{Painter}} template which gets the data directly from the template you are creating now. Your template will also be used as a source for your painter's categories. If you need to change the painter's data later (e. g. if he/she has a new home page), change this template. Please note that changing any data in the painter's article will not affect your template. You have to apply changes in both.
- Use the input box below to create a new template for your painter.
- Note: Do not delete the "Template:" prefix in the input box!
- Follow the instructions given on the new page and return to this page when you are done.
- Follow the next step.
Categories
A painter can have a paintings category. Even if you did not mark any sculpture page or image on Boobpedia with a category for your painter, another one can have done so, and your new category already contains entries.
Paintings
- Use the input box below to create a new category for your painter.
- Note: Do not delete the "Category:" prefix and the "sculptures" in the input box!
- This creates a predefined XY sculptures category. Follow the instructions given on the new page.
- You can continue working on your main article now.
