Basics
How do I create a new page?
There are several ways to create a new page:
- Create a link to the page on another page, then click on the red link which appears
- Browse to the intended location of the page, e.g. www.example.com/index.php?title=New_page and click on the edit link.
On some wikis, a failed search for a page will contain a link which allows you to edit that page.

Embedding Video
Usage The EmbedVideo parser function expects to be called in any of the following ways:
{{#ev:service|id}}
{{#ev:service|id|width}}
{{#ev:service|id|width|align}}
{{#ev:service|id|width|align|desc}}
{{#evp:service|id|desc}}
{{#evp:service|id|desc|align}}
{{#evp:service|id|desc|align|width}}
Where:
Service is the name of a video sharing service (See "service name" in the list below)id is the id of the video to includewidth (optional) is the width in pixels of the viewing area (height will be determined automatically)align (optional) is an alignment (float) attribute. May be "left" or "right".desc (optional) is a short description to display beneath the video when it is aligned.
For example, to include the famous "evolution of dance" YouTube video, you'd enter:
{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg}}
And if you wanted scaled down to thumbnail size, on the right with a short description, you could use:
{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg|100|right|This is an embedded video!}}
