Using/editing the wiki is a trial-and-error process. Editing the wiki is a simple, fun thing to do and you definitely get better the more you play around with it.

Then all you have to do is go to the source (either view source if you're not logged in, or edit if you are logged in), copy it, and modify it to fit your needs.

===How do I keep our team pages in our namespace?===<br />
You must keep your team's pages in your team namespace. For an example, take a look at [https://2008.igem.org/Team:Example https://2008.igem.org/Team:Example]. <br />
<br />
Specifically, when you create a new page, you just have to name it Team:(your [https://igem.org/Team_List OFFICIAL] team name)/(page you want to make). For example, if you wanted to create a Biosensor project page you would name it Team:(your [https://igem.org/Team_List OFFICIAL ]team name)/Biosensor_project.<br />
<br />
<br />
===How do I make my user page?===<br />
When it comes to user pages, you want to keep them in your user namespace. To do this:<br />
#Log in<br />
#Click on your name in the grey navigation bar <br />
#Edit your page (see [[User:Meagan | my page]] as an example <small>--[[User:Meagan|Meagan]] 20:03, 19 May 2008 (UTC)</small>)</div>Meagan
