Whether you own a website or admire one, Wikifashion would love you to create a page for it. Follow this simple guide:

Search for the website that you would like to create a page for by typing its name into the search box, located in the left toolbar. If the website does not already exist, there will be an orange link to create a page. Click this link and use the following as a guide to creating a page:

  • Template

Copy and paste this template into your page:

{{Blog
| name    = Website name
| created = ?
| author  = 
| origin  = New York
| style   = Fashion,inspiration
| image   = [[Image:example.jpg|frameless|center|250px]]
| website = [http://www.example.com example.com]
}}

Within your template, please enter the name of the website, when it was created, its creator, origin, style, an image and the url.

When editing the page, fill in the relevant details above. In order to include an image in the template, you must login and press upload file located on the left toolbar. Select the file you want to upload and include a reference in the box below the selected file. Once the file has been uploaded, copy the image and paste into this section of the template:
 [[image:PASTE YOUR IMAGE HERE|thumb|250px]] 
  • Headings
Once your template is filled in at the top of the page, you can start to create page sections. It is recommended that you include an about heading, to include one copy the following and enter it below your template:
 ==About== 

In order to create another heading simply use the same markup as above:

 ==Heading2== 

To create subheadings, copy the following onto your page;

 ===Subheading1=== 
 ====Subheading2==== 

When creating headings and subheadings, a table of contents will automatically appear at the top of your page.

There are also options that appear in your editing toolbox for bolding and italicising words.

  • Category

It is very important that a category is included at the bottom of the page. Simply copy the following and paste at the bottom of your page.

 [[Category:Websites]] 

This will ensure that your website can be found amongst the other Websites on Wikifashion.

You might also want to create a category for the origin of your website. For example if the website is from the USA, simply add this category as well:

 [[Category:Websites of USA]]
