	~~Wiki coding is relatively simple~~ to ~~learn and use, but it's not always so intuitive, and so it would be a good idea to first read some very brief help guides before adding content.~~		#REDIRECT [[How to edit Halachipedia]]

	~~== Step 1: Create a New Page ==~~
	* Unlike most websites whereby you create a new page and subsequently connect the new page to the main site via a link, in a wiki you first have to create the link and then the page. When you create the link, it will be to a blank page. Then when you click on this blank page, it will give you the option of adding content, so that it’s no longer blank.
	*Therefore, the first thing to do is decide where your halachik article would belong within our topical categories as displayed on the left sidebar.
	** For instance, “The Laws of Shema” would fall within the “Prayer” category.
	*Next, you need to create the link. To do this, click the edit tab towards the top of the page. From here you’ll see a large editable text box with all sorts of strange looking coding symbols. Find where you should add your link and surround the title with double brakets
	** For instance <nowiki>[[Laws of Shema]]</nowiki> = [[Laws of Shema]]
	* A red link means that it's an empty page, which you can then click on and add content

	~~== Step 2: Adding Content ==~~
	*To make a simple page, there are really only a few codes you should know
	~~# Subtopics have <font color=red><nowiki>==</nowiki></font> before and after <font color=red><nowiki>==</nowiki></font>~~
	~~# Bullet points use the asterisk sign <font color=red><nowiki>*</nowiki></font>~~
	~~# Numbers use the pound sign <font color=red><nowiki>#</nowiki></font>~~
	~~# References require two things:~~
	~~## Each individual reference needs <font color=red><nowiki><ref></nowiki></font> before and <font color=red><nowiki></ref></nowiki></font> afterwards~~
	~~## And, at the very bottom of the page, you must include: <font color=red><nowiki>==Notes== <references/> </nowiki></font>~~

	~~Here's an example:~~
	~~<blockquote>~~
	~~<tt>~~
	~~According to scientists, the Sun is pretty big.<font color=red>'''<ref>'''E. Miller, ''The Sun'', (New York: Academic Press, 2005), 23-5.'''</ref>'''<br/></font>~~
	~~The Moon, however, is not so big.<font color=red>'''<ref>'''R. Smith, "Size of the Moon", ''Scientific American'', 46 (April 1978): 44-6.'''</ref>'''<br/></font>~~
	~~<br/>~~
	~~==Notes==~~
	~~<br/>~~
	~~<font color=red>'''<references/></font>~~
	~~</tt>~~
	~~</blockquote>~~
