So you want to create a new page
The WikiMedia software is extremely powerful and extremely strange to get used to. There are many, many functions available that are not shown in any kind of editor or toolbar. This page will provide step by step instructions for specific functions and tools that will be most used. Have this page open in a separate tab or window to refer back for certain functions. This may change in the future as well.
Creating a new page / Finding a current page
These two things are lumped together because they are one in the same. Searching for "library" will show you pages titled library AND, if there is no page named "library," will give you a link to create a new blank page titled Library.
The first thing you will probably want to do is replace the blank page with the generic new page template. Do this by copy/pasting this tag into the new blank page: {{subst:NewDirectory}} This will place the text into your new page in an editable state so you can remove unused sections or add more or whatever you want to do.
