Editing Main Page

=Welcome to the completely unofficial Calontiri Wikispace!= 

==The purpose is to:== 
* Help to get to know our fellow Calontiri better - interests, skills, personas, put names to faces
* Make it easier to submit well-informed award recommendations
* Help bring distant parts of our Kingdom together
* Let our various guilds and households make their own easily updated place on the web
* Give Calontiri merchants another venue to spread their craft
* Be a place to find the stories and songs that explain what it is to be Calontiri
* Others?

For now, this wikispace is public. Anyone can edit existing pages although only "members" can add new pages or upload files. Public access will change if the privilege is abused.

Please do not undo the work of others (although feel free to correct spelling mistakes and obvious formatting problems). Make comments or discussion posts if you think more drastic changes are needed.

Please do not put copyrighted material on this wikispace unless you have the rights to it. If you see something here that you believe is in violation of copyright, please inform the "owner", sofya at heraldshill dot org

As an unofficial page, we will not be needing releases (Model, Photo, Content). But be honorable and get permission before you add someone else's creative works.

==Adding a Page about yourself:== 
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Send an email to </span>sofya at heraldshill dot org or FB Lisa Sofya Kies to request a page
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Fill in the information about yourself.</span>
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">If you want to add an image, it's easiest to "copy" and "paste" it from another website.</span>
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Otherwise, you'll have to upload it to the wiki first, then place it on the page. </span>
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">[[File:calontiri/ImageButton.PNG|right]]Click the "Insert Images and Files" button on the edit bar (the little picture between the links and the widget/TV button, see right) and follow the directions there.</span>
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Images will look best if you align them to the right.</span>
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">After you've saved your edits, "tag" yourself appropriately. See below.</span>

==A note about Tags:== 
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">"Tags" are how the wiki will be able to list people with like-minded individuals on the same page</span>
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">If you add the tag "people" to your page, then that page will automatically be listed on the People page with everyone else. </span>
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;">If you add the tag "silent heraldry" to your page, then you will be listed with everyone else who is tagged (once the "Silent Heraldry" activities page has been created with the appropriate widget)</span>
* <span style="line-height: 1.5;"><span style="line-height: 1.5;">You don't need to be in full "Edit" mode</span> (or even be signed in) to change tags.</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">In top right corner, click on the "..." button for more options</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Select "Tags", then select "edit"</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Type the first 3-4 letters of the tag name </span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Wait a moment for the wiki to bring up the tags that have already used those letters</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Select the appropriate one</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">If you don't see the one you want, try a different tag - "Clothing" instead of "Costuming"</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Tags should probably be more generic rather than more specific - so tag "music" rather than "vocal music", "weaving" rather than "cardweaving", etc.</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">A&S tags are based on the official categories in the Kingdom Judging Criteria, somewhat simplified, eg. Dance instead of "Dance Performance, European"</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Award/Order tags are based the official name of the Order, eg. "Silver Hammer"</span>
''' <span style="line-height: 1.5;">Group tags are just the name of the group, eg. "Vatavia" NOT "Barony of Vatavia".</span>
