Subpages

For more complex pages, consider using subpages (see MediaWiki's Help:Subpages for more info) to organize content. On the Funtoo Wiki, subpages are enabled in all namespaces. To create a subpage of a page, navigate to MyPage/NewSubpage and click Create.

Linking to Subpages

At the top of the page, I strongly recommend using the subpages template, which will present all subpages you specify in an easy-to-notice list of links. This makes this information easier to find. The subpages template can be used like this:

   subpage template example

{{Subpages|Basics,Images,Headings,Inline Code,Tables,Page Tools,Tips and Warnings,Source Code,Text Files,ConsoleOutput,Packages,Kernel,Translations,User Pages}}

As you can see, all subpages should be listed in a comma-delimited list as the first argument. The subpages template can be seen in action on the Metro page as well as the main Funtoo Editing Guidelines page.

Marking Pages as Needing Updates

If you find outdated wiki content, but you don't have the time or ability to update it, add one of the following templates to the wikitext of the page. This will add the page to the Needs Updates Category so we can identify pages that need updating:

{{PageNeedsUpdates}}
{{SectionNeedsUpdates}}
   Note

These templates needs to be looked at and potentially updated. We are not actively using these but we should be.

Examples of usage:
