Boobpedia:New director

This page is a how-to guide detailing a practice or process on Boobpedia.

If you want to create a director page that automatically lists the models that have his name mentioned in their article, you cannot just create an article. There are three steps that have to be followed. You have to

1. create an article,
2. create a template,
3. create categories.

You can use the buttons below to create all three and follow the instructions given on the respective new pages.

Article

This is the main page for the photographer. It contains the biobox and everything you want to write about him.

• Use the input box below to create a new article for your photographer.
• This creates a predefined photographer 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 photographer. Editors can insert the name of your photographer in an article by using the {{Photographer}} template which gets the data directly from the template you are creating now. Your template will also be used as a source for your photographer's categories. If you need to change the photographer's data later (e. g. if he/she has a new home page), change this template. Please note that changing any data in the photographer'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 photographer.
• 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 photographer can have a models and an images category. Even if you did not mark any performer or image on Boobpedia with a category for your photographer, another one can have done so, and your new category already contains entries.

Models

• Use the input box below to create a new category for your photographer.
• Note: Do not delete the "Category:" prefix and the "models" in the input box!
• This creates a predefined photographer category which includes the text of your article. Follow the instructions given on the new page and return to this page when you are done.
• Follow the next step.

Images

• Use the input box below to create a new category for your photographer.
• Note: Do not delete the "Category:" prefix and the "models" in the input box!
• This creates a predefined photographer category which includes the text of your article. Follow the instructions given on the new page.
• You can continue working on your main article now.
