How to Create/Edit a Work Area

How to Create a Work Area

  • Go to the Conservation Area Page, for the Conservation Area that contains the work area.
  • Create an empty bulleted line. If there are already bulleted lines, go to the beginning of the line you want to insert a bulleted line before and type enter, or to add a bulleted line to the end, go to the end of the last bulleted line and type enter.
  • Click link icon.
  • Enter the short name of the new work area in the link text box (e.g., `Nashoba A').
  • Click `Insert'.
  • Click `Save Page'.
  • Click the name of the new work area. You will get a message saying the page does not exist, and the `Create' option will be selected.
  • On the first line of the new work area, type `{{subst:Template:Work Area}}'.
  • Save the page. Now the page is a copy of the Work Area template, which is Nashoba Area A. You can edit the new page replacing the area name etc. to describe the new work area.

Inserting/Replacing and Image

  • To replace an image, delete the old image (click on it and type backspace) and proceed to insert the new image.
  • Upload the image file. One the left-hand menu, click `upload-file', select the file, and upload it.
  • If you want text to be at the left or right of the image, create a new empty line just ABOVE the text, and insert the image at the beginning of that line.
  • Click `Insert', `Images and Media', `Search', enter the beginning of the file name and click on the file, then click `Use This File' and `Insert'.
  • Then if you want the image to be in the left margin, right margin, or centered, click the image, `Edit', `Advanced', `Wrap Text Around This Item', and `Left', `Center', or `Right'.

Caution on Indentations

  • Indenting paragraphs and lists is describe in the documentation but DOES NOT WORK when text is to the right of an image in the left margin.

Putting Text Below a Left or Right Margin Image

  • You must click `Edit Source' and just above the first line of the text that is to go below the image insert the line `<br clear=all>' and click `Save'. `<br ...>' is HTML for `break', and `clear=all' means clear both margins.
